Preliminary Product Description
T h e C r e s t A u d i o C A 6 - X p r o f e s s i o n a l p o w e r a m p l i f i e r i s
designed to achieve unsurpassed sonic performance and long-
term reliability—even when operating under extreme stress—in
touring or fixed installation applications.
Absolute sonic accuracy is the hallmark of every Crest amplifier.
Bass is solid and defined to the limits of audibility, with ample
current reserves delivered by an “over-engineered” power supply
and advanced Class H circuitry. Wide-bandwidth output devices
assure detailed, transparent high frequency response. And, thanks
to Crest’s exclusive IGM circuit, the CA6-X will drive loads
safely without compromise in performance.
Construction and Quality Control
The CA6-X is built exclusively in Crest’s own USA manufactur-
ing facility, with internal components selected for premium qual-
ity and proven durability. Each modular subassembly is pre-test-
ed, and the assembled CA6-X receives a rigorous “hot room”
burn-in before thorough final checkout on precision test equip-
ment.
