The Crown CDI2000 is a high-power, two-channel DSP install amplifier from the CDi Series, engineered for demanding main PA and subwoofer applications in large venues. Utilizing Crown's DriveCore technology, it delivers exceptional efficiency and power density, offering 1100 watts per channel into 4 ohms and 775 watts per channel into 8 ohms in stereo mode. It can also be bridged to provide a formidable 2200 watts into 8 ohms for driving large subwoofer arrays or high-output main speakers. This amplifier is built for reliability in permanent installations such as nightclubs, large houses of worship, theaters, and live performance venues where consistent, high-fidelity sound at high SPLs is required.

A central feature of the CDI2000 is its integrated, networkable digital signal processor. Accessible via Ethernet and Crown's System Architect software, the DSP provides complete control over input configuration, crossover filters, parametric EQ, output delay, and sophisticated limiting to protect loudspeakers. It also includes Crown's Intrinsic Correction (IC) presets for optimized voicing with specific JBL and Crown loudspeaker models. The amplifier is designed for 24/7 operation with comprehensive thermal management and protection circuits. Its rack-mountable chassis includes both XLR/TRS combo inputs and SpeakON/binding post outputs for flexible integration.

For consultants and integrators designing high-output fixed installation systems, the Crown CDI2000 offers a powerful and intelligent amplification solution. It combines massive power reserves with the precision of onboard DSP in a single, reliable unit, reducing system complexity and providing the tools needed to achieve optimal sound quality, system tuning, and loudspeaker protection in the most demanding professional environments.
