Xs SERIES
T
T
he Xs Series of power amplifi ers from
Crown
®
represents a new era in afford-
able, quality power amplifi cation. The line
consists of fi ve models in a uniform, rugged
2U chassis, incorporating the best of tried-and-
true design principles and innovative features.
The four 2-channel models in the series are the
Xs500, Xs700, Xs900, and Xs1200. They are
identical to the user except for output power.
The Xs4300 is a 4-channel model.
Xs Series amplifi ers are professional stereo
power amplifi ers engineered to meet demand-
ing audio requirements—reliably and within
budget. Every Xs Series amplifi er is backed by
Crown’s unequaled Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully
Transferable Warranty.
With over fi ve decades of experience designing
and building rock-solid products, Crown is the
standard in amplifi er technology.
