Description
Crown 4X3500HDS IT4X3500HD Speakon Version Power Amplifier
The Crown 4X3500HDS is a professional four-channel power amplifier built for live sound engineers, touring productions, and permanent installations that demand reliable, transparent amplification with zero compromise. Its compact 2U rackmount chassis delivers 4000W of power across four independent channels, making it equally at home running main speakers, monitors, zone delays, or subwoofers at any venue size. Efficient Class-I circuitry keeps power draw low and heat minimal—critical when you're stacking gear in tight rack spaces or running off venue power infrastructure—while onboard DSP processing handles speaker protection and voicing without eating up rack real estate.
Amplification & Power Delivery
Class-I circuitry with DriveCore technology delivers tight, efficient power with remarkably low current draw—a real advantage when power budgets are tight or multiple amps share the same circuit. 4000W @ 4Ω per channel across all four outputs gives you serious headroom for full-range systems, monitor wedges, distributed installations, and subwoofer arrays without thermal stress or signal compromise, even in back-to-back shows or long-run installations.
Signal Processing & Connectivity
The integrated BSS OMNIDRIVEHD processing suite includes the LevelMAX Limiter and linear phase FIR filter support, letting you protect speakers and dial in system voicing right from the amp itself. 24-bit / 192kHz Cirrus Logic converters preserve audio quality end-to-end, while four fully routable inputs—analog XLR, AES3, and CobraNet—give you the flexibility to adapt to any console, router, or networked audio system. Ethernet connectivity supports HiQnet, TCP/IQ, and CobraNet protocols, so you can monitor and adjust the amp from your console or control laptop during setup and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Class-I DriveCore circuitry offer over standard power amp designs?
Class-I circuitry with DriveCore technology delivers efficient power conversion with exceptionally low current draw, making it ideal for installations where power infrastructure is limited while maintaining transparent amplification and low distortion across all four channels.
What's included in the BSS OMNIDRIVEHD processing suite?
The suite includes the LevelMAX Limiter for speaker protection, linear phase FIR and IIR filter support for speaker voicing, and 24-bit/192kHz audio fidelity throughout the signal chain—all routable and configurable via the front-panel USB port or Ethernet remote control.
How flexible is the input and connectivity system for complex installations?
Four fully routable inputs support analog XLR, AES3 digital XLR, and CobraNet protocols, with Ethernet connectivity for HiQnet, TCP/IQ, and CobraNet remote control and system integration—enabling seamless multi-protocol network designs in touring and venue environments.
Is this amplifier suitable for power-limited venues or installations?
Yes—the efficient Class-I circuitry and low current draw make it specifically designed for installations where power infrastructure is constrained, without sacrificing the 4000W @ 4Ω headroom needed for full-range speaker systems and monitors.
What speaker connectors and outputs are available?
The amplifier includes both Speakon and binding post speaker outputs, allowing flexible connection to professional venue cabinets, distributed monitor systems, and touring rigs.
