Architectural & Engineering Specifi cations

Xs1200 (120 V, 60 Hz model)

The Crown® Xs1200 power amplifi er shall be a solid-state two-channel
model employing Class H output circuitry.

The amplifi er shall include protection from shorted, open and mismatched
loads, general overheating, DC, high-frequency overloads, under/over volt­age, and internal faults.

The front-panel controls shall be a power switch and a gray rotary level
control (one per channel).

The recommended load impedance shall be 2 to 8 ohms.
Rear-mounted input connectors shall be a 3-pin Phoenix-style connector

(one per channel) and an XLR-1/4"combo connector (one per channel)
including a 3-pin female XLR connector and TRS 1/4" phone jack. Rear­mounted output connectors shall be binding posts (one pair per chan­nel), a 4-pole Speakon connector (one per channel), and a 3-pin male
XLR connector (one per channel) in parallel with the XLR-1/4" combo and
Phoenix-style connectors for daisy-chain connections.

Front panel indicators shall include a yellow Bridge-Mode Indicator that
illuminates when the Mode Switch is set to the “Bridge” position, a green
Signal Indicator (one per channel) that illuminates when the channel’s input
signal level is above –40 dBu, a red Clip Indicator (one per channel) that
illuminates when the channel’s output signal is being overdriven, a red
Temp Indicator (one per channel) that illuminates when channel(s) are
in thermal protect mode, a red Fault Indicator that illuminates when the
amplifi er is in protect mode and also briefl y during normal power-up when
amplifi er is fi rst switched on, a yellow Power Indicator that indicates ampli­fi er has been turned on, and a red AC Mains Indicator that illuminates when
AC power is present at the power cord.

The power amplifi er shall meet or exceed the following performance crite­ria. Input sensitivity for rated output: 1.4V (except for rated output at 0.5%
THD with one channel driven in Dual mode into 4 ohms). Rated output
with both channels driven in Dual mode into 8 ohms (1 kHz): 650 watts
per channel at 0.15% THD. Rated output with both channels driven in Dual
mode into 4 ohms (1 kHz): 1,100 watts per channel at 0.15% THD. Rated
output with both channels driven in Dual mode into 2 ohms (1 kHz): 1,600
watts per channel at 0.5% THD. Bridge-mono output power into 8 ohms (1
kHz): 2,300 watts at 0.15% THD. Bridge-mono output power into 4 ohms
(1 kHz): 3,000 watts at 0.5% THD. Frequency Response at 1 watt, 22 Hz
to 22 kHz: ± 1 dB. Signal to Noise Ratio below rated power: > 109 dB
A-weighted, > 107 dB (22Hz to 22 kHz fi lter). Total Harmonic Distortion at
full rated power from 20 Hz to 20 kHz: < 0.5%. Intermodulation Distortion
(IMD) 60 Hz and 7 kHz at 4:1: < 0.5% from full rated output to –30
dB and < 1.0% from full rated output to –40 dB. Load impedance: 2-8
ohms stereo and 4-8 ohms bridge mono. Voltage gain (at maximum level
setting): 47.4:1 (33.5 dB). AC Line Voltage and Frequency Confi gurations
Available (± 10%): 120 VAC/60 Hz and 240 VAC/50 Hz. Damping Factor: >
200 from 10 to 100 Hz. Crosstalk (below rated power): > 65 dB at 1 kHz
and > 45 dB at 20 kHz. DC Output Offset (shorted input): < ± 75 mV. Input
Impedance (nominal): 20 kilohms balanced, 10 kilohms unbalanced.

The amplifi er chassis shall be constructed of steel with a durable black
fi nish and shall be designed for forced-air ventilation from the front panel
to the back panel.

The dimensions of the amplifi er shall allow for 19 inch (48.3 cm) EIA
standard (RS-310-B) rack mounting. The amplifi er shall be 3.5 inches
(8.9 cm) tall, and 17.14 inches (43.5 cm) deep behind the rack-mounting
surface.

The amplifi er shall weigh 28 lb 14 oz (13.1 kg).
The amplifi er shall be designated the Crown Xs1200.
