A versatile 2-channel amp to power any event
The Crown XLS 1502 can power 2-, 4-, or 8-ohm loads and can be bridged for 4-ohm or 8-ohm mono operation. As a Class D amplifier, you can expect optimal efficiency when driving the most demanding loudspeakers or subwoofers. And when pushing the amp to the limits, the internal heatsink and forced-air fans will automatically cool down the XLS 1502 for consistent reliability and an extended lifespan. Its lightweight design makes this power amp a clear choice for touring musicians or live production companies needing portability.
Comprehensive controls to dial in the perfect setup
From managing input sensitivity to toggling amp modes, full customization is only a few clicks away. Included on the front panel is a user-friendly LCD screen, LED level indicators, an on/off switch, and dedicated menu buttons. At a glance, the XLS 1502’s rear panel includes an array of inputs to accommodate any audio source. Add additional amps through 1/4-inch line-level outputs, Neutron Speakon outputs, and binding posts — all while being protected against overload with the help of a built-in circuit breaker. With a built-in PureBand crossover system, Crown’s XLS 1502 has onboard a highpass filter, a lowpass filter, and a band-pass filter — all of which can be set up to 3000Hz with a 24 dB/octave slope.
