Electro-Voice’s Precision Series Compact amplifiers offer proven Precision Series performance and reliability in a new compact, lightweight format. This is made possible by incorporating a highly efficient Class-H design, which results in considerably less heat being generated. This allows the overall size of the amplifier to be reduced substantially without sacrificing performance or reliability.

The audio performance of CP-Series power amps are simply extraordinary. Optimized power supply units employing low-leakage toroidal transformers and the consistent use of Class-H technology provide extensive headroom far above the stated nominal output. At the same time contributes to a reduction in weight and power dissipation.

The CP 2200 features the same complete protection package as all EV Precision Series amplifiers. Protection against: excessive HF, DC fault, high temperature, and Back-EMF as well as turn-on delay, and peak current and inrush current limiters. In addition to the rated output power, the CP 2200 provides 30% headroom for a wide dynamic range of music signals. The onboard dynamic limiter ensures that the output signal of the CP 2200 will not exceed a THD of 1% up to an input signal of +21dBu. Detented level controls provide precise and repeatable settings. Front panel LEDs indicate signal present, 0 dB and limit. Paralleled male and female input XLRs provide for easy rack wiring.

With up to 2 x 11 watts into 2 ohms and 2 x 800 watts into 4 ohms, the CP 2200 is not only a perfect complement to many full-range speaker cabinets, but also mid- and high-frequency components in larger concert-sound systems. The CP 2200 utilizes a conventional transformer power supply, but still weighs only 16 kilograms.

Electro-Voice CP-Series power amps have been designed to fulfil even the most demanding requirements of touring applications. CP-Series amps are protected against thermal and electrical overload, short circuit and the occurrence of HF/DC at the outputs. Back-EMF-Protection eliminates the risk of the output transistors being damaged by electrical energy back-feed. The power outputs are switched via relay with a time delay during soft-start and an inrush current limiter prevents mains fuses from blowing.

The recessed mounted dB-scaled level controls ensure reliable protection against mechanical damage. These particularly precise, secure to operate detent-potentiometers are located on the front panel. CP-Series power amps provide the opportunity for retrofitting an internal analogue signal processor board with x-over and filter functions.

The easily readable LED display provides a quick overview of the power amp’s current operational status. The power outputs CHANNEL A, CHANNEL B and BRIDGED OUT are carried out as extremely durable Speakon-type connectors. Also located on the rear panel is a Ground-lift switch, which helps eliminating ground-noise loops by separating the power amp’s enclosure from the circuit ground. In normal operation, all CP-Series power amps are capable of driving loads as low as 2 ohms. In Mono-Bridged mode the allowable minimum load is 4 ohms.
