CE 1000
CE SERIES
T
he CE Series of Crown
®
amplifi ers are
professional tools designed and built for
professional use. Engineered and manu-
factured by the same teams who built Crown’s
acclaimed Macro-Tech
®
and K-Series amps,
the CE 1000 and CE 2000 have the rugged
heart and soul that have characterized Crown’s
amplifi ers for over 30 years.
With many of the same controls and features
you’ve come to expect from Crown, CE-Series
amplifi ers feature front-panel detented level
controls, useful function indicators, propor-
tional fan-assisted cooling, short-circuit pro-
tection and more.
For superior fl exibility, Crown CE-Series am-
plifi ers can work with a range of Crown SST
(System Solution Topologies) modules which
provide professional features like fi xed-point
crossover and summed bass output.
With a powerful, reliable performance,
CE-Series amps easily handle real 2 ohm loads
and are capable of chest-thumping lows. Plus,
your investment in an CE-Series amplifi er is
backed by Crown’s unequaled Three-Year, No-
Fault, Fully Transferable Warranty that covers
everything.

Specifi cations
Note: All measurements relate to 120 volt, 60 Hz units in
Stereo mode with 8-ohm loads and an input sensitivity of
26 dB gain at 1kHz rated power unless otherwise specifi ed.
Specifi cations for units supplied outside the U.S.A. may vary
slightly at different AC voltages and frequencies.
Power
Output Power: See power charts below.
Load Impedance: Safe with all types of loads.
Rated for 2, 4 and 8 ohms in Stereo mode, 4
and 8 ohms in Bridge-Mono mode.
Voltage Gain at 1kHz, 8 ohm rated output:
CE 1000: 30.5 dB gain at 1.4 volt sensitivity;
26 dB gain at 2.34 volt sensitivity.
CE 2000: 32.1 dB gain at 1.4 volt sensitivity;
26 dB gain at 2.83 volt sensitivity.
Required AC Mains: 50/60 Hz (North
American units are 60 Hz only); 100, 120 and
230/240VAC (±10%) units are available.
AC Line Current,
CE 1000:
100V: 7.6A
120V: 6.3A
230-240V: 3.5A
At Idle: Draws no more than 90 watts.
CE 2000:
100V: 11.4A
120V: 9.5A
230-240V: 5.0A
At Idle: Draws no more than 90 watts.
AC Line Connector: NEMA 5-15P (15A).
Performance
Frequency Response: ±0.2 dB from 20 Hz to
25 kHz at 1 watt.
Phase Response: ±15 degrees from 20 Hz to
20 kHz at 1 watt.
Signal to Noise Ratio (below rated 1 kHz
power):
105 dB (A weighted)
100 dB (20 Hz to 20 kHz)
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD): 0.5% or less
true THD from 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
Intermodulation Distortion (IMD): (60 Hz and
7 kHz at 4:1) Less than 0.1% at rated power to
35 dB below rated power at 8 ohms.
Damping Factor: Better than 400 from 10 Hz
to 400 Hz.
Crosstalk: Better than 55 dB below rated
power, 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
Common Mode Rejection (CMR): Greater than
70 dB from 20 Hz to 1 kHz.
DC Output Offset (Shorted Input): < ±10 mV.
Controls and Connectors
Level: A detented rotary level control for each
channel located on the front panel.
Power: An on/off rocker switch located on the
front panel.
Mode: A two-position switch located on the
back panel below the input connectors which,
when turned to stereo, operates the amplifi er
as two independent channels. When “Bridge-
Mono” mode is selected, the amplifi er bridges
the two output channels for twice the output
voltage.
Reset: A front-panel push button used to reset
the circuit breaker that protects the power
supply.
Sensitivity: A two-position switch located
on the back panel next to the Mode switch.
Switchable between 1.4 volts for full output into
an 8 ohm load (default setting), or a fi xed volt-
age gain of 26 dB. Also available as a service
option is 0.775 volt sensitivity.
Fault Jack: A back-panel RJ-11 jack that may
be remotely monitored to signal amplifi er Fault
condition. An LED or other signalling device
(not supplied) may be used.*
Features
Accurate, uncolored sound with very low
distortion for the best in music and voice re-
production.
Bridge-mono/stereo mode switch allows you
to set up your amps/speakers in the confi gura-
tion that best suits your needs.
Advanced protection circuitry guards against:
shorted outputs, open circuits, DC, mis-
matched loads, general overheating, high-fre-
quency overloads and internal faults.
Extremely versatile, handling a wide range of
speaker impedances and outputs.
Switchable input sensitivity.
Proportional speed fan optimizes cooling ef-
ciency.
Shallow rack depth. Only 12.25 inches deep!
Choice of Speakon
®
, binding post, or barrier
strip outputs (Speakon
®
comes standard).
Choice of balanced 1/4-inch (6.35-mm), XLR,
or barrier strip inputs.
The best Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully Transfer-
able Warranty in the business! It even covers
round-trip ground shipping in the U.S. for all
warranty work.
