YORKVILLE CR5 Details
The
Yorkville CR5 features 250 watts per side at 4 Ohms in a
rugged three rack space package. The quiet, passively cooled
CR5 delivers
professional quality at a surprisingly affordable price. Controls are well thought
out and include rear-mounted, (unobtrusive and tamper resistant) dB-calibrated
individual channel gain controls, switches for the defeatable limiter and stereo/mono/bridge
mode operation. All connectors are located on the back panel including touch proof
binding post and 1/4" phone outputs, precision balanced 1/4" TRS / XLR
combi connector inputs as well as barrier strip inputs. A rear mounted circuit
breaker and front-panel mounted AC power switch are also provided. All CR-Series
amplifiers also include separate power and dual-purpose clip/protect LED’s.
The amplifier design while unique, is conservative with regard to the power handling
capabilities of it’s output devices. The ruggedly designed
CR5
will continue to operate while used with especially demanding speaker cabinets
– unlike some competitors’ amplifiers which will shut down prematurely.
The physical package is made up of a heavy gauge yet light weight aluminum chassis.
Other features include an AC cord-wrap system and optional rack mount handles.
The heat sinks are mounted on the side of the amplifier where the unit can
dissipate heat up the side of the rack, away from other heatsinks in the rack.
To further assure trouble-free operation all CR-Series amps undergo a thorough
computer monitored, temperature cycled, burn-in period to test for any deviation
from design parameters.
