CP2000
Power Amplifier

CP2000 Front Panel

CP2000 Rear Panel

The new CP2000 Power Amplifier is designed to deliver high output power with
efficient operation. Maximum power output is 2000 watts into a 4 ohm load
(bridged). 1000 watts per channel is available at 2 ohms. 4 ohm operation yields
650 watts per channel, and 450 watts per channel at 8 ohms.
EEEngine technology, a Yamaha exclusive, allows the CP2000 to deliver high
output while keeping power consumption to a minimum for cool, efficient
operation.
Another Yamaha exclusive, YSP (Yamaha Speaker Processing) was incorporated
to enhance performance when used with Yamaha’s Club Series loudspeakers.
When used with either the S112IV or the S115IV, enhanced bass response and
smooth high frequency can be achieved.
■ Features
High Power Output
The CP2000 delivers a maximum
2000-watts of clean power into a
4-ohm load when bridged. In a stereo
configuration it delivers 1000-watts of
power into 2-ohms, 650-watts into
4-ohm loads or 450-watts into 8-ohm
loads.
EEEngine Technology
Yamaha’s exclusive EEEngine
technology, combined with a
MOSFET amplifier allows the
CP2000 to deliver high performance
along with exceptional efficiency.
At idle, power consumption is kept to
a mere 30W while under normal use
the unit draws 350W.
Yamaha Speaker Processing
Circuitry designed to enhance the
audio performance when the CP2000
is used with the popular S112IV and
S115IV Yamaha loudspeakers. A rear
mounted switch activates this circuit.
Other Features
The CP2000 shares the same
limiter circuits that are used in our
high end H series amplifiers for opti-
mum protection from hard clipping.
It also provides three output modes
for maximum flexibility. The normal
Stereo mode (separate input signals
routed to independent channels with
L/R signal control). Parallel Mode
feeds a single input to two independ-
ent channels with L/R signal control,
and Bridged Mono for extra high
power output.
The unit is also equipped with
balanced XLR jacks and balanced
1/4-inch phone jacks for input con-
nections, and 1/4-inch phone jacks
and 5-way binding posts for speaker
connections.
