Description
The LEA Professional CS64D Connect Series Half-Rack Smart Amplifier delivers four channels of professional amplification in a compact form factor. With 60W per channel at 4Ω, 8Ω, 25V, 70V, and 100V, it supports selectable low-impedance (Lo-Z), 70V, or 100V operation on each channel for flexible installed audio configurations.
The CS64D features a 96kHz Analog Devices Sigma DSP processor with a 32-bit core, fully routable analog inputs, Dante 4 × 4 audio networking, and AES67 configurability through Dante Controller. Its onboard processing includes an input matrix and mixer, eight-band parametric EQ per channel, crossover filters, output delay, adjustable voltage limiting, and output protection.
For system configuration and monitoring, the CS64D supports browser-based WebUI, LEA Cloud, SharkWare, and third-party API control. Network access is available through its built-in Wi-Fi access point, an existing Wi-Fi network, or wired Ethernet. Proprietary Smart Power Bridge Technology also enables bridged output functionality without sacrificing an amplifier channel.
