General Description:

The Electro-Voice® CPS2.11 is from the Contractor Precision
Series of professional amplifiers. The high efficient Class-H
design reduces the power dissipation significantly and allows for
more amplifier channels and output power in a given rack space.

The audio performance of the CPS2.11 is state-of-the art and
fulfills the highest sound expectations in demanding applications
from concert sound to theater. The CPS2.11 features the same
complete protection package as all EV Precision Series ampli-
fiers. Protection against: excessive HF, DC fault, high tempera-
ture, and Back-EMF as well as turnon delay, peak current and
inrush current limiters. In addition to the rated output power the
CPS2.11 provides up to 30% percent headroom for a wide
dynamic range on music signals. The onboard dynamic limiter
ensures that the output clipping of the CPS2.11 will not exceed
a THD of 1% up to an input signal of +21dBu. Detented level
controls on the rear panel provide precise (1dB-detend) and
repeatable settings.

Front panel LEDs indicate signal present, 0 dB, and limit. Female
XLRs and Phoenix type connectors for inputs and barrier strips
for outputs provide an easy rack wiring. The power on/off function
of the CPS2.11 can be remote controlled via a 24V DC source.
Optional x-over cards for biamp operation (e.g. a 2-way cinema
system) can be retrofitted.

Technical Specifications:

- Amplifier at rated conditions, both channels driven, 8 ohm loads, unless otherwise specified.
