XLS 202 (120 V, 60 Hz models)
The power amplifi er shall be a solid-state two-channel model.
The amplifi er shall provide extensive protection and diagnostic capabilities, including
output current limiting, DC protection, circuit breaker, and special thermal protection
for the unit’s transformers.
The front-panel controls shall be two black detented level controls (one for each
channel), a power switch, and a circuit breaker for overload protection.
Front-mounted indicators shall be Clip: one red LED per channel which illuminates
when the channel’s output signal is being overdriven, Power: one green LED which
indicates that the amplifi er has been turned on and AC power is available, and Fault:
one yellow LED which illuminates when amplifi er is in protect mode and briefl y
during normal power-up when amplifi er is fi rst switched on.
The recommended load impedance shall be 2 to 8 ohms per channel in Stereo, and
8 ohms in Bridge Mono. The amplifi er shall be safe when driving any kind of load,
including highly reactive ones.
The rear-mounted output connectors shall be one four-pole Speakon ® connector and
a pair of 5-way binding posts per channel. Rear-mounted input connectors shall be
3-pin balanced XLR connectors.
The power amplifi er shall meet or exceed the following performance criteria: Input
sensitivity for rated output at 4 ohms: 0.725 V. Rated output with both channels driven
with 0.5% THD (at 1 kHz) in Dual mode: 250 watts per channel into 2 ohms, 200
watts per channel into 4 ohms, and 145 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Rated output
with 0.5% THD (at 1 kHz) in Bridge-Mono mode: 400 watts into 8 ohms and 500
watts into 4 ohms. Frequency Response at 1 watt, 20 Hz to 20 kHz: ±0.75 dB. Phase
Response at 1 watt: –10 degrees at 10 Hz, +19 degrees at 20 kHz. Signal to Noise
Ratio below rated power (20 Hz to 20 kHz): greater than 100 dB A-weighted. Total
Harmonic Distortion at full rated power, 1 kHz: less than 0.15%. 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, –82 dB at 1 kHz, –58 dB at 20 kHz. Voltage Gain at maximum output: 31 dB.
Input Impedance (nominal): 20 kilohms balanced, 10 kilohms unbalanced. AC Line
Voltages and Frequencies Available (±10%): 120 VAC/60Hz and 230 VAC/50 Hz.
The amplifi er chassis shall be constructed of steel with a durable black fi nish and
shall be designed for fl ow-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 amplifi er shall allow for 19 inch (48.3 cm) EIA standard (RS-
310-B) rack mounting. The amplifi er shall be 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) tall, and 14 inches
(35.6 cm) deep behind the rack-mounting surface.
The amplifi er shall weigh 21.0 pounds (9.5 kg).
The amplifi er shall be designated the Crown XLS 202.
