The Crown XLS family of amplifiers do not get enough love. I run 2 XLS 1002 in bridge mode. That is 700 watts per channel to get it done! Efficient, Cool running, easy to install, and versatile. Only my snob "AudioPhile" buddies won't agree with me. Cool, means for me, for less. I got my 1st XLS1002 for only $175.00 and the second at $349.00. So between the 2 I got good clean running power running my Jamo C97 II Floor standers in my bedroom home office home theater. People who use the Crown XLS family of amplifiers are smart, and know a performance bargain when they see and hear one. Everything else is just preference. They aren't necessarily better, but what they like. Been doing this 50 plus years and I could get pretty much anything I want, still can. But XLS makes sense for my foundation to power.

I am currently using 2 Crown XLS 2502 440wpc 8ohm amps for 4 subs, and 2 Behringer A800 amps 220wpc 8ohm in stereo mode (also using 2 Behringer A800 amps of which are bridged 800w 8ohm). I am also using a miniDSP. Sounds EPIC!

I take a ride on the way-back to the 80's--90's when I played bass full time in a rock band,, I remember the (8) Crown DC-300 power amps that ran the PA. Serious Balls Knocked drunks off of their feet,, never a moments trouble. What else would I consider my retirement " Record Player" but the best amps ever made. PERIOD

I use a 1502 in my bass rig to drive my Epifani T410 speaker cab with ~1000 watts at 8 ohm mono bridged. It sounds massive when you feed enough power to really get the speakers moving!

Great video. Love the fact that you got old cerwin vega. I got two 2502´s for my front setup using M&K´s S150. After adding those two and run the preamp mode. My sound just got better and even more alive and controlled. And adding those removed alot of heat from my CInema 40. ot that i needed it but i love loud sound and great sound combined. I can only recommend this for any setup.

Thanks very much for the video. I get mine this week but I know the instructions usually suck in the manual. This is my first time using an amplifier. This should keep me from destroying the new Klipsch R-820F speakers I got.

I have a couple Crown XLS amps too. My XLS 2000 is hooked to my Klispch Chorus I speakers and a powered JBL PRX718XLF sub in my music room. My bedroom has a Crown XLS 1002 hooked to my Tanoy i12 speakers and a XLS2500 bridged 2400watts @4ohms to my Stereo Integrity 15" subwoofer in a seal box . Yes I do have a speaker and amp problem, I am seeking help at this time.

Just got mine and tested against a 90 wpc Yamaha, zero difference in sound, and they both drive my speekers to "very loud" so I'm returning it but if you NEED power it's amazing.

@@EverydayMan My speakers are rated for 500 watts at 8 ohms but I sit quite close to them and they are very large. It doesn't take that much power to fill the room. If I was sitting 25-50 feet away that might be a different story. Keep up the good work!

I have the crown 1502 and it is kicking 2 in stereo DIY 15" Dayton classic subs, but I think the punch can be better and something wrong in my setup because the meter lights never goes beyond 2-3 lights.

Voltage isn't high enough going into the Crown. Get a 2-way line level converter such as the Rolls MB15b ProMatch for $89 at Crutchfield. Can sometimes find it on sale as well.

Did you have to plug in the 12volt trigger to have the amp turn on and off, or does it turn on/off automatically just with the rca's???

You are picking up interference from other electronics. I'm not a fan of RCA connections I to had interference using RCA's. Now I use XLR connections the 3 pronged receptacles on the back of the amp. My setup is Computer HDMI out ► Essence HDACCii 4K (dac) has XLR outputs►JBL PRX718XLF powered sub► Crown XLS 2000► Klispch Chorus I speakers . I don't use RCA's anywhere and it's dead quiet . Gain on the Crown is set at 100% full volume.

So with them hooked to the line out on the Onkyo it bypasses their bass and treble adjustments and flattens the sound out quit a bit. They sound better to me with the preamps.
