Crown XLS202 Amplifier

The XLS 202, 402, and 602 all combine first-class reliability with a number of significant features. A selectable high-pass filter (30Hz/15Hz/Off) on each channel enables the amplifier to work more efficiently when not being used with full-range cabinets or subwoofers, while a pair of linear optocoupler clip limiters helps protect loudspeakers from being overdriven.

Housed in rugged, all-steel 3U chassis, the 3 XLS models employ an efficient forced air fan to prevent excessive thermal buildup. Front panels sport dual, precision detented level controls, a power switch and 4 LEDs, which indicate clip for each channel, power, and fault conditions. Rear panel connections include 2 electronically balanced XLR inputs and touch-proof binding post outputs.

"XLS Series amplifiers are great for DJs and bands that need a rugged and dependable workhorse," says Bob Lichty, Crown Audio music industry marketing director. "Despite their extremely economical price tags, these amplifiers don't cut any corners with regard to features or performance."

Like all of Crown's amplifiers, XLS products are backed by the manufacturer's industry-exclusive 3-year, No-fault, Fully Transferable Warranty.
