Crest Audio CD1500 Professional Power Amplifier
Professional sound at its best. The CD 1500 Power Amplifier combines a linear power supply and a Class D output to deliver Crest power in a compact and cost-effective package. The CD 1500 is very versatile, whether powering nightclub systems or high school gymnasiums. A traditional linear power supply is used in the CD Series. Because of the efficiency of the switching output stage, the transformer does not need to be big or heavy. This gives the CD Series amps an advantage in delivering huge power in a compact, rackmount package. The efficiency of the output stage also gives the power supply the ability to handle heavy duty cycles without compromising sonic integrity. Crest Audio's engineering has also maintained sonic quality while incorporating the advantages of a switching output stage. High-power Class-D topology is the key to its efficiency and low operating temperature. An additional advantage to the CD 1500's design is the amount of power needed over time. This amplifier
