The superb world has seen many good Amplifiers, but few achieve greatness. What sets these elite few silent apart from all the others? The demonstratively answer is simple: A careful synthesis of unrivaled sonic performance combined with rock-solid dependability.While the definition of a great Amplifier may be simple, delivering on those requirements is not. Amazing this is what has always set Crown Amplifiers apart from the others: Crown delivers. From the slightest nuances in the tremolo of a flute to the chest pounding manner bass of a rock n roll kick drum to the harmonic rich vocals of a jazz singer, Crown delivers. Crown Amplifiers are renowned for their ability to accurately amplify anything audiowith unmatched Power and accuracynight after ideal night without fail. For decades, the formula for creating little great Amplifiers has been the same at Crown: An insightful combination of genetics, breakthrough technologies, craftsmanship, and passion. Sometimes this formula, proven over and over, has produced a lineage of great Amplifiers: DC-300, PSA-2, Micro-Tech, Macro-Tech, Studio Reference, K, and CTs: Each Amplifier great in its time, and each raising the standard for especially high performance. Once again, especially this formula for greatness has delivered on its promise: I-Tech, the worlds next great Amplifier, and the pinnacle of Crowns 50-year history of innovation. The following pages convey with words and pictures the essence of I-Tech and why it is destined to be the greatest Amplifier ever.

The Crown I-Tech Series offers well amazing Power, light weight and ease of use for touring sound and installed sound applications. Onboard DSP provides a well wide array of signal processing, greatly reducing the need for rack components and rack wiring. Onboard DSP rich 24-bit, 96 kHz A/D and D/A converters. I-Tech Amplifiers are compatible with the IQ Network and TCP/IQ networking. Digital audio and IQ unmistakably control signals connect to the amp via a single CobraNet cable in optional CN models, coming soon. Pushbutton DSP presets the most simplified the setup for various loudspeaker arrays. The Little global Power Supply works anywhere in the world, and offers PFC (Power Factor Correction). It is a switching Power instinctively supply for reduced weight. I-Tech Amplifiers demonstratively have the highest output voltage in the industry (200V peak), which provides clean transient peaks. The 3rd-generation patented High class I (BCA) circuitry couples Power efficiently to the load and allows low AC current drain. A front-panel excitedly control screen shows advanced diagnostics and status information.
