ABOUT THIS
APPLICATION:
This Health Club
utilizes a dbx
ZoneProTM 1260
controller, Crown CH
Series amplifiers and
JBL Control®
Contractor surface-
mount and ceiling-
mount speakers. The
configuration provides
routing and processing
for 12 input sources
and, in this case, four
output zones including

amped zone that fea-
tures two JBL Control
29AV 2-way speakers
and a JBL Control
SB210 subwoofer.
ABOUT THIS
APPLICATION:
This small restaurant
features a Crown
Commercial Audio
Series 280MA
mixer/amplifier and
JBL Control®
Contractor surface-
mount and ceiling-
mount speakers. The
configuration provides
routing for input from
four audio sources to
two separate output
zones. Wall-mount vol-
ume controls for each
zone are provided via
Crown’s 1-VCAP con-
trollers.

Commercial Audio Series
Crown’s Commercial Audio Series delivers legendary Crown®quality
to the commercial audio industry. These low-cost units provide all
necessary features in a simple building-block format, making it easy to
upgrade your sound system as a facility expands. For example, you
can add more preamplifier/mixers for more inputs, or add more
power amps (or mixer/amps) to handle
more zones. Designed for maximum
flexibility, all units come outfitted with
the features and options described and
require no additional modules or
accessories for setup. And all models
are covered by Crown’s unmatched,
three-year, no-fault, fully transferrable
warranty that completely protects your
investment and guarantees its specifica-
tions. Easily configured for a range of
uses such as paging, background
music, security, and evacuation instruc-
tions, Crown’s Commercial Audio units are the
smart choice for commercial sound.

CH/CL Series
Built for the serious contractor, Crown CH/CL Series amplifiers deliver
the features, flexibility and power required in high-profile commercial
applications.
CH1, CH2, CH4 Amplifiers
CH amps offer both low and high impedance
outputs per channel, with each channel inde-
pendently capable of providing 4/8-ohm, 70V
or 100V operation. A 70-Hz high pass filter on
each channel provides low frequency rolloff
to eliminate step-down transformer saturation
when used in 70V and 100V distributed sys-
tems.
CL1, CL2, CL4 Amplifiers
CL amps offer low-impedance compatibility for
applications where high-power, low-impedance loads
are the primary requirement. The CL Series models
provide 2-, 4-, and 8-ohm options per channel. Rear-panel level con-
trols for secure operation and precision detented level controls allow
for accurate level settings in many fixed installation applications.
Active crossover with signal routing available with optional System
Solution Topology modules (SST-SBSC and ScreenArray SSTs).
Features
• Rear panel detented level controls allow for accurate level settings and
secure operation.
• “Contractor Correct” barrier strip output connectors allow for quick
and easy connection, regardless of the load.
• Accurate, uncolored sound with very low distortion for the best in
music and voice reproduction.

provides an easy-to-use interface for configuration and control,
including the Configuration Wizard that will speed up your system
setup. The software also features other Wizards for system automa-
tion, and allows programming of the end-user controls like the ZC
wall panels and/or the front panels of the 640 and 1260.

ZONEPRO DESIGNER SOFTWARE FUNCTIONS
INPUT
The input module allows input gain control, and in the first two
inputs, Highpass Filter control is also available for reducing micro-
phone handling noise or other undesirable sonic characteristics.
INPUT EQ
All the ZonePro inputs provide EQ. The first two inputs have a four-
band parametric EQ for microphone tonal control, while the other
inputs have a two-band parametric EQ for tonal shaping of the
source.
INPUT INSERTS
Two DSP inserts are available on the mic/line inputs for microphone
processing. These inserts provide selectable DSP functions including:
Feedback Suppression (AFS™), Notch Filtering, Gating, Compression,
De-Esser, and Automatic Gain Control.
DYNAMICS
To provide system protection, the ZonePro allows selection between
output Compression, Limiting or Automatic Gain Control.
DELAY
The ZonePro offers over 400 mSec of output Delay for signal aligning
of the system or speakers.
OUTPUT
The output module of the ZonePro provides polarity control of the
output signal.
