AC Line Voltage and Frequency Configurations Available (±10%): 120 VAC 60 Hz, 100 VAC 50/60 Hz, 220 and 240 VAC 50 Hz.

Controls

Level: Two front-panel rotary level controls, one for each channel.

LCD Screen: Back-lit LCD allows for crossover configuration, amp mode configuration and clip compressor configuration.

Menu/Prev/Select: Three buttons located near the LCD screen that are used to configure and access the integrated processing.

Power: Front-panel switch; on when in the IN position. Blue LED will illuminate when on.

Circuit Breaker: Back-panel breaker provides overload protection.

PureBandTM Crossover System

Crossover Filter:

Linkwitz-Riley 24dB per ocatve.

Crossover Mode:

Crossover (CH1=LPF, CH2=HPF), Low Pass (both channels LPF), High Pass (both channels HPF), Bridge (LPF or HPF).

PeakXTM Limiters: Channel independent clip limiter designed to provide maximum output while protecting your loudspeakers.

Indicators

Signal Presence Indicators: Two green LEDs, one for each channel, illuminate when the channel’s input signal exceeds –40 dBu.

–10 Indicator: Green LED flashes when output signal exceeds –10 dB below clip.

–20 Indicator: Green LED flashes when output signal level exceeds –20 dB below clip.

Clip Indicators: Two red LEDs, one for each channel, illuminate when the channel’s output is being overdriven.

Thermal Indicator: Two red LEDs, one for each channel, illuminate when thermal compression begins.

Input/Output

Input Connectors: XLR (one per channel), 1/4 inch (one per channel), and RCA (one per channel). The 1/4 inch inputs can be used as loop-thrus to distribute signal to multiple amplifiers.

Output Connectors: Two 4-Pole Speakon® Output Connectors accept 2-pole or 4-pole Speakon® connectors. The top Speakon connector is wired for both channels so it can be used for bridge-mono wiring or for stereo wiring of two speakers to a single Speakon connector.

One pair of back-panel binding posts per channel; accepts banana plugs or bare wire. (European models do not accept banana plugs.)

Protection

XLS Series amplifiers provide extensive protection and diagnostic capabilities, including output current limiting, DC protection, circuit breaker, and thermal protection.

Construction

Ventilation: Flow-through ventilation from front to back.

Cooling: Internal heat sinks with forced-air cooling for rapid, uniform heat dissipation.
