Crown aluminum Xls1002 Live Sound Amplifiers, Pack Of 1

Good product Good Quality Super sound 👌👌😊 Thank you so much Amazon 👍😊

I am using it to drive Polk RTI A7 tower speakers from Yamaha AVR.

Bought it after viewing good reviews from Steve Guttenburg and Sean. Powerhouse. Excellent soundstage and separation. Truly neutral. No Class D afflictions like boosted top end.

This is a brief, real-world review of Crown's XLS 1502 (2-Channel) Class D amplifier. The very mention of Class D usually tends to evoke a plethora of reactions. Usually - *rolled eyes*. Don't blame you, if you just rolled your eyes. Enter Crown XLS 1502 (DriveCore 2), thanks to Amazon. On connnectimg the Crown amp with my preamplifier (Yamaha C2), put a smile on my face :) Note to myself & to folks who might want to consider credible Class D power amps like a Crown, its PARAMOUNT to have a preamp (Tube, solid - Take your pick). & Theres a good reason for that - The 1502 has no audio signature of its own. BUT a good, decent preamp (Even a DIY from Aniket) will markedly improve the audio sonics in the 1502. The 1502 has front gain controls. Rememeber this is NOT a conventional Class AB linear amplifier. Ergo, it makes no sense to dial up the gain controls for each of the channels to the max. Because this is a switching amplifier, which means max. Gain setting could generate speaker hiss on unbalanced RCA ins in the 1502. BUT depending on the speaker efficiency the hiss will be virtually undetectable or very muted. AND.... The fact that you DO NOT have to worry about ANY HEAT ISSUES whatsoever! One thing you have to remember that the Crown XLS 1502 converts the analogue signal from the source (In this instance the Yamaha C2 preamp) into the digital domain at 48 Khz; Is then chopped into the switching frequency; & then reconverted back to analogue using a passive filter and into the speakers. This is a caveat of the Crown XLS 1502 - It digitizes the incoming analog audio signal (Analog to Digital) & then does the switching magic & converts the digitized switching signal back to analog (Digital to Analog). It's not bad. It may not be good either (Especially if you run High Definition Audio Content sampled beyond 48 Khz). BUT what matters is the Crown XLS 1502's power output. And for a so-called PA system amp & the price point that it sells for, the Crown XLS 1502 is truly bang for the back. I would dare say this amp is the perfect beginner amp for a stereophile. All in all - For Rs. 23,000/- the Crown XLS 1502 amp is NOT a High-end Class D amp (that would potentially cost you in excess of Rs. 75,000+) BUT it delivers absolute bang-for-the-buck in a stereo environment. Running cool like a cucumber. With barely 10 watts draw from the main lines at rest. Bang-For-The-Buck. That's the key phrase for the Crown XLS 1502 (DriveCore 2 Series).

I am bi-amping two xls 1002 amps to drive Infinity Kappa 8s in extended mode. The amps drive them with authority and have lots of reserve. Using a Marantz pre amp with balanced outputs and it all sounds fantastic!!! These amps respond to the garbage in=garbage out principle. Good source with a good recording and you will be quite happy!

Buen sonido transparente, no noto que coloree mucho. Eso sí clásico sonido clase "D", pero en contraparte el equipo no pesa y es muy portátil. Solo se debe de cuidar de las variaciones de voltaje. Precio de oferta así que muy conforme.

Strictly using this amp for CD and vinyl in 2-channel set up. Took minutes to have running right out of the box. Initially I was less than impressed to say the least. Highs were too bright, bass was minimal and soundstage was almost non-existent. Put in a high quality CD, hit play and repeat and let it run on low volume for 48 hours. The result was impressive. After 100 hours even better. I now have approx. 150 hours on the amp and the results are amazing! Highs sound spot on, bass is fast and detailed and the soundstage has opened up nicely! The detail I am hearing is a pleasant surprise. This amp definitely requires a break in period. Plenty of power and it runs cool. It does it's job effortlessly. Be patient and you won't be disappointed.

Why spend thousands on a high-end audiophile amp, while this amp is affordable, still sounds good, performs well, is built well, is easy to use, and looks cool? No, it’s not the best amp. However, this amp is very unbeatable for $430. This amp sounds very good with my Elac Debut 2.0 B6.2 bookshelf speakers and not many cheap amps handle 6 ohms and don’t deliver the power I want. This amp is ideal for almost all appliances. It’s good for PA use, Hifi use, home theater use, and much more! Edit: This amp is still going strong and is currently driving my QSC AD-S28Tw subwoofer. Definitely makes the subwoofer sound good!

Todo bien me lo entregaron a tiempo empaquetado exelente el amplificador de buena calidad sobrepasó mis expectativas recomendado estube entre este amplificador y un yamaha xp3 pero no le pide nada al yamaha👍👍👍 estupendo amplificador
