The flagship of the Precision Series Compact amplifiers is not only
the first Precision Series amplifier to use a switch-mode power
supply, but also the first switch-mode amplifier with EV’s Preci-
sion Series sound. With up to 2 x 1600 watts into 2 Ohms and 2
x 1100 watts into 4 Ohms, it is not only the most powerful in the
line, but also the lightest model at only 17.96 lbs (8.15 kg).
The CP 3000 S is state-of-the-art for all applications. It’s specifi-
cally designed to allow for long-term driving of low loads with
subwoofers without stress. Its reliability coupled with its pleasing,
rich sound makes it the first choice for all mid- and hi- speaker
cabinets.

CP3000 S
With up to 2 x 1100 watts into 2 Ohms and 2 x 800
watts into 4 Ohms, the CP 2200 is not only a perfect
complement to many fullrange speaker cabinets, but also
mid- and hi-frequency components in larger concert-sound
systems. The CP 2200 employs a conventional trans-
former power supply.
CP2200
Supplies up to 2 x 900 watts into 2 Ohms and 2 x 600 watts
into 4 Ohms. Dedicated for smaller size full range speaker
systems and hi-frequency components in multiway systems.
The CP 1800 uses a conventional transformer power supply.
CP1800
With up to 2 x 600 watts into 2 Ohms and 2 x 400 watts into
4 Ohms dedicated for small fullrange cabinets and individual
hi-frequency components in multiway systems. The CP1200
employs a conventional transformer power supply.
