I have a very good condition Crate amp, faceplate immaculate, some minor scratches on the case. Fully tested and ready for your rack or stage. Check out the test in the YouTube video.
I've pasted some specs from the manual:
- The Crate SPA-1400/1400C is a ruggedly constructed high quality power amplifier designed to give you continuous performance with professional results.
- The amplifier mounts into a standard 19” rack, requiring only two rack spaces (3- 1/2 inches, vertically).
- Two automatic variable-speed internal cooling fans use the sides, rear and the front of the amplifier - not the top and bottom - for its air intake and exhaust, allowing you to stack multiple amplifiers closer together in a rack mount situation. Additional rack support holes have been provided along the rear of the amplifier for the most secure installation possible. (Use of these additional supports is strongly recommended – refer to page 23 for more information.)
- The SPA-1400/1400C produce up to 660 watts of power per channel @ 2 ohms, 425 watts per channel @ 4 ohms stereo mode or 260 watts per channel @ 8 ohms (stereo mode); 1320 watts @ 4 ohms, 850 watts @ 8 ohms or 520 watts at 16 ohms (bridged mono mode). Several “professional” features have been built into the amplifier, such as 1/4” phone and XLR input jacks with electronically balanced Low or Medium impedance operation.
- Built-in automatic limiting circuitry with LED indicators constantly monitors the output of each channel and provides protection against clipping, thus preventing the generation of speaker-damaging square waves. A built-in protection circuit guards the amplifier against damages from overloads, short circuits, or overheating. In addition, each channel features a Signal LED to assist in hookup and troubleshooting, and a Fault LED which indicates when the internal protection circuitry is activated.
- Output connections can be made by either high current five way binding post sets or professional-quality Speakon® jacks. The SPA-1400/1400C also features a Parallel Mono switch which internally parallels the inputs of both channels.
- A signal fed into channel 1 can be split to both channels internally (no additional cables required), with each channel’s Level controls operating independently. This is especially valuable when two different output levels are needed, such as one for main and another for side fill, or for different paging zones. Using this feature also allows a large number of speakers (up to eight 8 ohm cabinets) from one amplifer, with only one input signal and no cables for channel patching. Unique to the SPA-1400C are dual tuneable 12dB/octave low-cut filters, an active two-way 24dB/octave electronic crossover and switchable XLR Thru / Crossover Out jacks.
- The low-cut filters allow elimination of frequencies below the range of the speakers, which in turn eliminates cone flutter, wasted power and thermal stress on both speaker and amplifier. The electronic crossovers allow optimum tuning of the system to your low and high frequency speakers. The switchable XLR Thru / Crossover Out jacks allow (A) direct connection to additional external amplifiers (XLR Thru mode – XLR jacks in parallel with the XLR and 1/4” input jacks), or (B) sending the low and/or high frequency signals for biamping (Crossover Out mode).
