Architectural & Engineering Speciﬁcations

Crown® XLS 602

The power ampliﬁer shall be a solid-state two-channel model.

The ampliﬁer shall provide extensive protection and diagnostic capabili- ties, including output current limiting, DC protection, circuit breaker, and thermal protection.

The front-panel controls shall be two black detented level controls (one for each channel) and a power switch. The rear-panel controls shall be a circuit breaker reset switch and a Dual/Bridge-Mono mode switch.

Front-mounted indicators shall be the following: Signal Presence Indica-

tors: Two green LEDs, one for each channel, illuminate when the channel’s

input signal exceeds –40 dBu. Clip Indicators: Two red LEDs, one for each channel, illuminate when the channel’s output is being overdriven. Power Indicator: Blue LED indicates ampliﬁer has been turned on and AC power is available. Fault Indicator: Two red LEDs illuminate when ampliﬁer is in protect mode. Also illuminates brieﬂy during normal power-up when ampliﬁer is ﬁrst switched on.

The recommended load impedance shall be 4 to 8 ohms per channel in Stereo, and 8 ohms in Bridge Mono.

The rear-mounted output connectors shall be two 4-pole Speakon® con- nectors (one per channel) and a pair of binding posts per channel. Rear- mounted input connectors shall be 3-pin balanced XLR connectors.

The power ampliﬁer shall meet or exceed the following performance criteria: Sensitivity for full rated power at 4 ohms: 1.25 V. Rated output with both channels driven with 0.5% THD (at 1 kHz) in Dual mode: 600 watts per channel into 4 ohms and 380 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Rated output with 0.5% THD (at 1 kHz) in Bridge-Mono mode: 1,200 watts into 8 ohms. Frequency Response at 1 watt, 22 Hz to 20 kHz: +0 dB, –1 dB. Signal to Noise Ratio below rated power (20 Hz to 20 kHz, inputs terminated): greater than 100 dB A-weighted. Total Harmonic Distortion at full rated power, 1 kHz: less than 0.5%. Intermodulation Distortion (60 Hz and 7 kHz at 4:1, from full rated output to –40 dB: less than 0.3%. Damping Factor (8 ohms): greater than 200 from 10 to 400 Hz. Crosstalk (below rated power, –75 dB at 1 kHz, –50 dB at 20 kHz. Input Impedance (nominal): 20 kilohms balanced, 10 kilohms unbalanced. AC Line Voltages and Frequencies Available (±10%): 120 VAC 60Hz, 100 VAC 50/60 Hz, 220 VAC 50 Hz, 230-240 VAC 50 Hz.

The ampliﬁer chassis shall be constructed of steel with a durable black ﬁnish and shall be designed for ﬂow-through ventilation from the front panel to the back panel. Internal heat sinks with forced-air cooling shall provide rapid, uniform heat dissipation.

The dimensions of the ampliﬁer shall allow for 19 inch (48.3 cm) EIA standard (RS-310-B) rack mounting. The ampliﬁer shall be 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) tall, and 15.2 inches (38.6 cm) deep.

The ampliﬁer shall weigh 29.0 pounds (13.2 kg).

The ampliﬁer shall be designated the Crown XLS 602.

XLS-602 E, XLS-602 A specifications

Crown Audio has long been renowned for its commitment to delivering high-quality audio solutions tailored for professional applications. Among its impressive product lineup, the XLS-602 A and XLS-602 E models stand out as invaluable tools for audio engineers looking for reliable power amplifiers. Both models exemplify Crown's dedication to innovation, efficiency, and performance.

The XLS-602 A is a two-channel amplifier that harnesses advanced Class D technology, allowing it to achieve remarkable power output while maintaining compact dimensions and lightweight construction. With a power rating of 600 watts per channel at 4 ohms, it is designed to drive a wide array of speakers, making it suitable for both live sound applications and installed sound systems. The XLS-602 A features a built-in crossover, allowing users to tailor the output for specific frequency ranges, which enhances overall sound clarity and quality.

On the other hand, the XLS-602 E model offers similar power capabilities but introduces a few additional features that elevate its functionality. Like the A version, it also utilizes Class D technology, but with refined circuitry for improved efficiency and reliability under demanding conditions. The XLS-602 E includes enhanced signal processing features, such as adjustable high-pass and low-pass filters, which allow users to fine-tune their sound systems according to their preferences and the acoustics of the venue.

Both the XLS-602 A and XLS-602 E incorporate Crown’s proprietary Intelligent Sample Rate feedback technology. This ensures optimal performance and sound quality by adapting to the incoming signal and maintaining audio fidelity even at high output levels. Additionally, each amplifier is equipped with a comprehensive protection system that guards against overheating, short circuits, and overloads, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.

Another common characteristic of both models is their user-friendly interface, complete with LED indicators for monitoring power and protection status. This feature simplifies operation by providing clear visual feedback to the user, making it easy to identify potential issues before they escalate.

In conclusion, the Crown Audio XLS-602 A and XLS-602 E amplifiers embody exceptional sound engineering and versatility. Whether for live performances, installations, or touring applications, these amplifiers provide robust power, efficient operation, and a suite of features that cater to the demands of professional audio industries, making them indispensable for sound engineers and technicians alike.
