A High-tech Power Amplifier

Power your stage in style with the technologically advanced Crown I-Tech 12000HD power amplifier. The I-Tech 12000HD is a professional-level touring amplifier designed for the rigors of the road. This amp is so groundbreaking that its technology features five new patents, three of which are on the power supply. Crown's new BSS OMNIDRIVEHD processing engine is at the heart of the I-Tech HD amps. With four times the processing power, the I-Tech 12000HD features Linear Phase FIR filters and LevelMAX limiters for precise and crystal-clear sound.

Analog and digital inputs for all your power amp needs

The I-Tech 12000HD’s wide selection of inputs gives you the power and flexibility to get your signal where you need it to be. Dual analog XLR inputs are perfect for taking a feed from an analog mixer and an AES/EBU input for digital mixer signals. Beyond that, standard speakON and binding post output jacks are ready to connect to your favorite speakers.

Network your amps together for a powerful array

Whether you're at a permanent installation facility or on tour, the Crown I-Tech 12000HD power amp has the functionality you need. The built-in EtherCON Ethernet connector features HiQnet compatibility, enabling you to take control of an entire network of amps and tweak them to your heart’s content.

Transfer presets via USB drive

Once you have your I-Tech 12000HD power amp set up and presets dialed in, you can copy them to a USB drive, via the front-panel USB port, and transfer them to other I-Tech series amps. At Sweetwater, we’ve found that this saves you the time and hassle of having to set up each new amp to your perfect settings.

Crown's I-Tech 12000HD, along with four single 18-inch subs, generates low-end frequencies below the low end. Crossed over at 40HZ and paired with two QSC E-218 dual 18s, the Crown creates gut-hitting lows unlike any other amp I have ever tested or used. And it does this from a single 20-amp 120-Volt circuit. You can't get better than this.

When I want to rock the crowd, I break out my Crown I-Tech 12000HD and my JBL 4KW single 18-inch subs (four per side). When powered by the I-Tech 12000HD, I can generate bass for the masses. The I-Tech will deliver constant power for hours on hours without getting warm. This amplifier will need its own 20-amp circuit for best results. Since I only use my I-Tech 12000HDs for subwoofers and I use a loud speaker manager, I have not used any of the I-Tech's DSP features. This is the best amplifier available.

I have been using Crown's iTech 12000HD power amp to power four JBL STX-818 subs for two years now. With the crossover set around 60hz, the bass is totally crushing. Walls rattle, lights shake loose, and this amp with the JBL subs makes people stay on the dance floor all night.

And for movie night, the explosion in the movies is more life-like when you can feel it in your gut.
