BUX Series ? BUX 1.4
Professional Power Amplifier

Presentation

Power amplification at its best means absolutely linear handling of any complex audio signal.

Our BUX Series are unique, powerful amplifiers built to meet the highest professional requirements, thanks to new circuit philosophy that guarantees outstanding performance with field proven reliability.

With these qualities, RAM Audio units outperform most modern amplifiers in terms of technical specs and pure sonic performance. 

To achieve industrial economy and efficiency, the BUX Series Power Modules, share component topology and maintain technical coherence by increasing heat sink size according to power output.

BUX Series have been designed giving extreme attention to all production steps from the engineering stand point. All boards are naturally double sided plate-through fibre glass. Most advanced SMT circuits are used for overall reliability, ease of assembly and full field servicing.

Crownʼs new CTs series of power amplifiers are remarkable for their loud, punchy sound; sustained, tight bass; and superior protection against overheating and overload. This paper explains the design features behind those advantages. After reading this information, youʼll know why Crown CTs amps sound better than the competition. CTs amplifiers can provide large amounts of power into various loads, such as 2, 4, 8 ohms and 70V. With most power amps, the maximum output power tends to drop as the load impedance increases. But with the CTs series, the power stays the same at almost any impedance. 2-ohm Dual (per Ch.) 250W 4-ohm Dual (per Ch.) 600W 8-ohm Dual (per Ch.) 600W 16-ohm Dual (per Ch.) 300W 70V Dual (per Ch.) 600W 4-ohm Bridge 500W 8-ohm Bridge 1200W 16-ohm Bridge 1200W 140V Bridge 1200W Crown switching power supply for less weight Sustained Power on long-duration signals due to regulated, "stiff” power supplies with incredible energy storage (huge filter capacitors). Extra Hidden Power during high-level transients and during incomplete use of all the channels. Overheating and overload protection thanks to the sophisticated TLC circuitry which compresses the signal only when needed. Compression is controlled not by temperature, but by signal voltage. This keeps the loudness up during compression more than with competitive amps.
