Crown XLS 2002 - 650W 2-Channel at 4-Ohm Power Amplifier

The Crown XLS 2002 is a powerful and versatile 650W 2-channel amplifier at 4 ohms, designed to meet the needs of professionals in various audio environments. Part of the next-generation XLS DriveCore 2 Series, this amplifier combines Crown's cutting-edge DriveCore technology with enhanced DSP capabilities to deliver clean, undistorted sound to your speakers, making it ideal for venues, clubs, live performances, and houses of worship. This sleek black-finished amplifier not only provides reliable, high-output power but is also packed with features for precise sound control and user convenience.

Weighing less than 11 pounds, the XLS 2002 is engineered for portability and ease of installation, making it an excellent choice for mobile sound systems or permanent installations. It features Crown's ultra-efficient Class D DriveCore technology, which ensures consistent, powerful output while minimizing heat and power consumption. The amplifier can drive up to 1050 watts at 2 ohms per channel or deliver 2100 watts when bridged at 4 ohms, offering ample headroom to handle demanding audio setups.

The XLS 2002 incorporates an advanced digital signal processing (DSP) engine that provides more control over the audio output than its predecessors. Each channel is equipped with a band-pass filter, allowing users to adjust the crossover settings for optimal performance based on their specific speaker configurations. The amplifier also features Crown's proprietary Peakx Limiters, which protect your speakers from damage by ensuring maximum output without distortion, giving you clean, crisp sound at any volume level.

One of the standout features of the XLS 2002 is its user-friendly interface, including an LCD display that is three times larger than previous models, making it easy to navigate through the settings and DSP features. The amplifier also includes an increased lighting functionality, allowing users to turn off all LED indicators except for the clip and thermal lights, reducing distractions in dark environments like theaters or performance venues. Additionally, the XLS 2002 includes a security setting that locks the menu buttons with a combination, preventing accidental or unauthorized changes to the amplifier's settings.

The amplifier's selectable input sensitivity settings (.775Vrms or 1.4Vrms) allow it to be used with a wide variety of audio sources, ensuring optimal performance no matter the input level. This flexibility ensures that the amplifier can deliver full power to your speakers regardless of the source device. Connectivity is also highly flexible, with XLR, 1/4", and RCA inputs, making the XLS 2002 compatible with professional and consumer audio equipment alike.

Cooling is managed by efficient forced-air fans, which prevent excessive thermal buildup during extended periods of use, ensuring reliable performance in even the most demanding conditions. The XLS 2002 also features a remote power trigger for easy on/off control, perfect for installed systems where direct access to the amplifier may not always be convenient.

With a frequency response of +0dB, -1dB, the XLS 2002 ensures accurate and consistent sound reproduction across the audible frequency range. The amplifier's signal-to-noise ratio of 103 dB minimizes unwanted noise, delivering clear and dynamic audio. Additionally, its Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is less than 0.5%, and its Intermodulation Distortion is less than 0.3%, ensuring that your audio remains free from distortion, even at high output levels.

The Crown XLS 2002 is housed in a durable, lightweight chassis with compact dimensions of 19 x 10.7 x 3.5 inches, making it easy to transport and install in tight spaces. Despite its compact size, the amplifier is built to withstand the rigors of professional use, with advanced protection circuitry guarding against shorted outputs, overheating, under/over voltage, and other potential issues. Whether you're looking to power a small club, a mobile DJ setup, or a professional PA system, the Crown XLS 2002 delivers the power, control, and reliability you need.
