Description

Crown's XLS Series amplifiers define the standard for portable PA system with unmatched performance, technology and affordability. Its advantageous flexibility includes multiple inputs so you can plug in anything and play anywhere, along with several system setup configurations. The integrated crossovers and switch mode power supply produce superior sound, and Peakx limiters protect your speakers. Weighing less than 12 pounds, compared to 40 pounds for its competitors, it's much easier to set up and move from show to show. Simply put, the XLS is most reliable, versatile, efficient amp available today.

XLS Series with Integrated Drive Technology Core
The Series of power amplifiers XLS from Crown define the standard for live sound systems with unmatched performance, technology, and affordability.

This high-performance line consists of four models each providing enormous power and flexibility thanks to the integrated Core Technology Drive, pureband Crossover System and Peakx limiters. And weighing in at only 10 lbs or less, they provide the ultimate in lightweight portability.

Generating chest-thumping lows and crystal clear highs, the four models in the series - the XLS1000, XLS1500, XLS2000, and XLS2500 - are engineered to meet any demanding audio requirements - reliably and within budget.

Every XLS Series amplifier is backed by Crown's unequaled Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully Transferable Warranty that covers everything.

With over five decades of experience designing and building rock-solid products, Crown is the standard in amplifier technology. So check out the XLS Series Crown. They are a powerful argument for performance, flexibility, and value!

 

Integrated Drive Core Technology
Class D amplifiers are notable for extraordinarily high efficiency and being well suited for driving difficult loads such as reactive subwoofers. However, their performance can suffer impaired performance on marginal and unstable AC line supplies.

To overcome this obstacle, Crown engineers developed Core Drive Technology - a proprietary hybrid analog-digital integrated circuit (IC) developed with Texas Instruments that drives the "front end" of the Class D output stage. Over 60 years of Crown's design knowledge and experience went into the development of this technology resulting in truly remarkable benefits.

Core Technology to Drive provides extremely wide-tolerance with regards to sagging or "dirty" AC line conditions providing consistent performance without affecting audio quality. This means that your will not be compromised performance by overloading or fluctuating generator Power by lighting rigs, backline gear, etc.

In addition, Drive Core Technology's patented feedback and PWM modulation circuits enable fast recovery on peak transients, accurate reproduction of low-level detail, and precise tracking of low-frequencies at high power levels for maximum output subwoofer.

 

Advanced Switched-Mode Power Supply
This advanced power supply is highly efficient and optimized for maximum power transfer from the AC line through the Class D output stage to the loudspeakers. A benefit to this is substantial weight reduction when compared to older 60Hz transformer-based power supplies. All four models in the line weigh 10 pounds or less with no compromise in performance. This makes the XLS Series the benchmark for high performance lightweight portability.

 

Pureband Crossover system
The pureband crossover system in the XLS Series adds to enormous amount of flexibility and performance to any system With this system, the crossover frequency is variable completely Allowing the choice of any crossover point between 50Hz and 3kHz on 1 / 12 octave centers. The use of 4th order Linkwitz-Riley filters steep slopes provides for a seamless transition between high and low drivers. And with four crossover modes to choose from providing the ultimate in flexibility, all of your system needs are covered:

   1st Crossover Mode (CH1 = LPF, HPF = CH2) - When chosen, chosen this mode enable a LowPass filter on Channel 1 and a high pass filter on Channel 2 at the frequency.

   2nd LowPass Mode (CH1 = LPF, LPF = CH2) - When chosen, this mode enable LowPass a filter on both Channel 1 and Channel 1 at the chosen frequency.

   3rd High Pass Mode (CH1 = HPF, CH2 = HPF) - When chosen, a mode enable this high pass filter on both Channel 1 and Channel 2 at the chosen frequency.

   4th Bridge Mode (LPF or HPF) - When the amplifier is put into Bridge-Mono, you are still able to crossover use the system and employ either a filter or LowPass High pass filter at the frequency chosen.

All of the crossover system settings can be pureband fully configured quickly and easily from the front panel using the intuitive LCD interface.

 

Peakx limiters
Peakx limiters provide the ultimate in performance and protection for your entire system This advanced algorithm was developed and tuned specifically to work with this amplifier and power-supply to achieve higher SPL wants less audible artifacts. This means less distortion, less shutdowns, and maximum power delivered to your Safe speakers. The Peakx limiters Can be easily turned on or off by right channel from the front panel eliminating the need to be digging around in the back of the rack dark.
