THE CROWN® MACRO-TECH ® 3600VZ PROFESSIONAL POWER AMPLIFIER FEATURES CROWN’S PATENTED VARIABLE IMPEDANCE (VZ ®) POWER SUPPLY. THIS POWER SUPPLY, ALONG WITH ADVANCED SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNOLOGY, ENABLES THE MACRO-TECH 3600VZ TO PACK MORE POWER INTO A MERE 3½ INCHES OF VERTICAL RACK SPACE THAN EVER BEFORE. BECAUSE IT’S A MACRO-TECH, YOU HAVE THE ADDED BENEFIT OF PIP ™ COMPATIBILITY FOR ACCESS TO CUSTOM INPUT MODULES AND ODEP ®PROTECTION TO KEEP THE SHOW GOING LONG AFTER OTHER AMPLIFIERS WOULD FAIL.

MODERN POWER AMPLIFIERS ARE SOPHISTICATED PIECES OF ENGINEERING CAPABLE OF PRODUCING EXTREMELY HIGH POWER LEVELS. THEY MUST BE TREATED WITH RESPECT AND CORRECTLY INSTALLED IF THEY ARE TO PROVIDE THE MANY YEARS OF RELIABLE SERVICE FOR WHICH THEY WERE DESIGNED.

IN ADDITION, THE MA-3600VZ AMPLIFIER INCLUDES A NUMBER OF FEATURES WHICH REQUIRE SOME EXPLANATION BEFORE THEY CAN BE USED TO THEIR MAXIMUM ADVANTAGE.

FEATURES
• GROUNDED BRIDGE DESIGN DELIVERS LARGE VOLTAGE SWINGS WITHOUT STRESSING OUTPUTTRANSISTORS, RESULTING IN LOWER DISTORTION AND SUPERIOR RELIABILITY.

• PATENTED ODEP (OUTPUT DEVICE EMULATION PROTECTION) CIRCUITRY COMPENSATES FOR OVERHEATING AND OVERLOAD TO KEEP THE
AMPLIFIER WORKING WHEN OTHERS WOULD FAIL.

• IOC® (INPUT/OUTPUT COMPARATOR) CIRCUITRY IMMEDIATELY ALERTS OF ANY DISTORTION EXCEEDING 0.05%, PROVIDING DYNAMIC
PROOF OF DISTORTION-FREE PERFORMANCE.

• ARTICULATED VZ POWER SUPPLIES FOR EACH CHANNEL PROVIDE EXCELLENT CROSSTALK CHARACTERISTICS AND THE BEST POWER MATCHING TO YOUR LOAD.
