he Crown® 180A, 280A, and 1160A are
high-value amplifiers for commercial and
industrial audio. They provide 4-ohm and
constant-voltage outputs (70V and 100V). The
amps are part of Crown’s Commercial Audio
Series, which also includes mixers and mixer-
amps. These low-cost units provide all necessary
features in a simple building-block format.

The amplifiers vary in their number of inputs,
number of outputs, and power range:
•
•
Ideal for commercial and industrial use
•
Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully Transferable War-
ranty completely protects your investment
and guarantees its specifications
Balanced Phoenix-type line inputs; touch-
proofed screw-terminal speaker outputs
• 180A has 1 input and one 80W power amplifier
for single-zone systems.
•
Advanced protection system includes output
current limiting, DC protection, circuit
• 280A has 2 inputs and dual 80W power ampli-
fiers for two-zone systems.
• 1160A has 1 input and one 160W power ampli-

Operating Temperature/Humidity: 0° C to 40° C
at 95% relative humidity (non-condensing).
Some applications include schools, hospitals,
factories, restaurant/retail, houses of worship,
fitness facilities, A/V boardrooms, prisons, and
small offices. Typical uses are paging, background
music, security and evacuation instructions.

The sound system can be upgraded as a facility
expands. For example, you can add more mixers
for more inputs, or add more power amps (or
mixer-amps) to handle more zones.

Power Switch: Pushbutton on-off switch. The
power switch does not affect the 24V DC auxiliary
power input.
*1 kHz Power: refers to maximum power in watts at
1 kHz with 0.5% THD.
Power Indicator: Blue LED indicates power on.
Output Signal Presence Indicator: Green LED,
one for each output channel, illuminates when
output signal level exceeds 100 mV (45 dB below
full power) from the 4-ohm tap.

Clip Indicators: Red LED, one per output channel.
Illuminates at threshold of audible distortion.
Frequency Response (at line out): 20 Hz to 20
kHz +/- 1 dB.
Master Volume Controls: One per output channel.
