Description
Crown XFMR-4 Four Channel Transformer
The Crown XFMR-4 is a compact, rack-mountable transformer designed to integrate standard amplifiers into distributed constant-voltage speaker systems for studio monitoring and facility playback. Its single-rackspace footprint houses four independent channels of impedance matching, making it an efficient solution for production facilities and control rooms requiring integration of amplifiers without native 70Vrms or 100Vrms output capability. Installation and setup are straightforward, with provided jumper cables and accessible barrier block connectors that streamline patching in the studio rack.
Studio Integration & Signal Path
This transformer enables amplifiers to drive constant-voltage distributed speaker systems by converting standard audio signals into 70Vrms and 100Vrms output, extending monitor coverage across larger tracking rooms, overdub spaces, and facility areas with minimal signal loss. The pluggable barrier block connectors accept up to 14 AWG wire, providing flexible connection options for both input and output configuration within your studio's signal chain and speaker infrastructure.
Audio Performance & Specifications
The XFMR-4 maintains a flat frequency response of +/– 1.0 dB from 70 Hz to 15 kHz, ensuring accurate, transparent signal transmission across the audible spectrum without coloration or phase shift. Maximum input rating of 32Vrms at 125W and insertion loss of ≤1.0 dB ensure minimal signal degradation through the transformer chain, preserving the integrity of your monitor mix.
