Crown announced at Prolight +Sound 2010 the next generation line of XLS Series amplifiers.
The new line, consisting of four models, implement a flexible PureBand Crossover System. Users can select crossover points from 50 Hz to 3 kHz, allowing for matching of specified crossover points on most bi-amplified loud speakers.
PeakX limiters allow higher output levels than conventional analog limiting while providing assured driver protection, and deploy algorithms derived from the extensive research and development of the OmniDrive HD loudspeaker processing in Crown’s flagship I-Tech HD Series.
The XLS series amplifiers also feature Integrated DriveCore Technology, which provides fast recovery on peaks, accurate reproduction of low-level detail, and precise tracking of low-frequencies at high power levels for maximum subwoofer output.
Further simplifying ease of use, an intuitive front panel work surface with LCD display provides fast and easy menu-based system setup and full amplifier diagnostics.
“We designed the XLS series amplifier from the ground-up to be a category-defining amplifier. We are bringing features and technology to a price point that no one else is close to offering. We set out to provide users with an amplifier that would reset the standard for power, performance, flexibility and value. Quite simply, this amplifier is a game changer,” said Flint
