CS 620C

In a world dominated by enormous amplifiers, the CS620C stereo
amplifier is a refreshing alternative. The sleek high-quality
brushed aluminum sleeve and classy acrylic rear panel visually
set it apart from the competition. Its compact dimensions make
it ideal for customers who wish to conceal their audio equipment
not everyone wants their domestic environment choked with a vast
array of equipment requiring large and often unsightly support
racks! The CS620C may be diminutive in size but its musical
performance is quite outstanding. This unit has it all and at a
really affordable price. Whether you enjoy Classical, Jazz, Rock
& Roll, House, Thrash Metal or any other variation of musical
culture, the CS620C can party! It can be subtle and gentle, open,
dynamic and, when required, can give copious quantities of deep,
controlled and rhythmic bass - a veritable wolf in sheep’s
clothing! Technically the CS620C is superb in design and
execution, featuring DNM’s widely acclaimed slit foil capacitors,
‘star earthing, and an unusual output stage based on bi-polar
technology. Hours of listening tests have confirmed that fast bi-
polar output devices, driven by a high-quality bi-polar driver
stage, give unparallel bass control and definition at a price
unmatched by competitors. This unique arrangement, with four-
stage output buffering, gives the CS620C excellent ‘control’ over
the loudspeakers - consequently, comparatively high peak output
currents can be delivered into difficult speaker loads. The
internal signal wiring utilizes DNM’s award winning solid core
cable, giving mid-band clarity and transparency, a delicate
sweetness to the treble and a tight and tuneful bass. The
flexibility offered by the Crimson CS620C is outstanding. As part
of a budget system, it is awesome! As part of a mid-price system,
it still delivers a level of performance, which will have you
upgrading your source equipment or loudspeakers before you consider
changing your amplifier! When you feel the need to improve your
system’s performance, Crimson have an easy and cost effective
upgrade solution in the form of the CS630C mono-blocks - consult
your dealer for Crimson upgrade information and prices.
CS 630C

The CS630C mono-block amplifiers are closely related to the
CS620C. With an increased budget available for the CS630C’s,
Crimson have produced a true ‘giant-killing’ product. Whilst
retaining the basic features and aesthetic appeal of the
CS620C, the mono-blocks have several important advantages
which provide a substantial increase in performance over the
single box unit - at a very competitive price! By completely
separating the left and right channels (physically) the
CS630C’s are able to resolve musical detail more effectively.
Sound staging improves in depth and width, as does the
reproduction of dynamic range. Without a doubt, however, the
most objective improvement in performance is the incredible
increase in the speed of musical delivery. The unique output
stage of the CS620C is further enhanced in the CS630C’s by
using ultra-fast triple diffusion bi-polar output devices.
These very expensive components offer exceptional speed and
power delivery. Coupled with a larger high-quality custom-
built toroidal transformer, the CS630C’s can drive almost
anything! With a dedicated power supply feed for each channel,
the CS630C’s can drive loads down to 2 ohm's and sustain high
levels of output current. Additional features include
bi-wireable output sockets and a signal out socket. The
signal out socket allows easy ‘daisy chaining’ of the mono-
blocks in installations where even greater power delivery may
be required through bi or tri-amping. As with the CS620C,
the CS630C’s have output short-circuit protection and a
thermal overload cutout, making the amplifiers virtually
‘bullet-proof.’ We are so confident in the ability of our
products to provide years of trouble-free running that we are
more than happy to offer a no quibble 3 year parts and labour
warranty. It is rare to find an amplifier that performs
equally well across the audio band. To find one which keeps
the vitality of a musical performance, holds the attention of
the listener and can be partnered with a huge range of
loudspeakers, whether in a hi-fi or audio visual system, is
almost impossible. To do all this for the price of a pair of
CS630C’s - it could only be a Crimson product!
