CROWN XLS-2502 Power amplifier 2Χ775W/4Ω-2X440W/8Ω

Meet the new XLS DriveCore™ 2 Series

The next generation of XLS got a makeover with a sleek new look, a LCD display that is three times larger, and more DSP with higher capabilities. Like its predecessor, the new XLS is ultra-efficient with Crownʼs patented DriveCore technology and can drive 2400W at 4Ω bridged with tons of headroom guaranteeing a clean, undistorted signal straight to your speakers. The XLS DriveCore 2 assures that you will be heard as you deliver a powerful, pure sound experience for any venue.

• Class D amp with Crown's ultra-efficient DriveCore technology weighs less than 11 lb 
• Higher DSP capabilities: More control; has band pass filter per channel 
• Increased lighting functionality; turn off all LED indicators except clip and thermal to reduce distraction in dark venues
• Selectable input sensitivity; 1.4Vrms and .775Vrms options so that amp can be driven at full power
• Set sleep mode after specified time without having to press a button
• Security setting disables menu buttons; menu locked/unlocked by entering combination
• System reset allows factory settings to be restored
• Remote power trigger
• Peakx™ Limiters provide maximum output while protecting your speakers
• XLR, 1/4“, RCA inputs provide flexibility
• Integrated PureBand™ Crossover System for better performance and control
• Efficient forced-air fans prevent excessive thermal buildup 

The S Series of RAM Audio amplifiers distils all these features to fulfill all your needs, whether youʼre starting a P.A. amplifier project from scratch, or you need to upgrade your present sound reinforcement equipment.

In the S Series amps, you'll find five 2-channel models and five 4-channel models, all offering plentiful power levels at low distortion in the range of 1.5 to 6 kilowatts, yet weighing in around 8 kilos and 30 cm deep.

• Ultra-compact and lightweight 2-U high
• Laser cut aluminum front panels with integrated carrying handles
• Neutrik® XLR input connectors, input and signal link in 2 channel models
• Input Link switch: allow daisy-chaining of the input signal
• Neutrik® Speakon® output connectors
• Detented sealed potentiometers for easy recall of volume settings
• ICL™, PMS™, Hi-temp, Signal indicators per channel
• Power on and Stand-by leds
• Highly versatile with multiple configuration and additional module options
• Full PC control via EtheRAM (with EtheRAM Control module)
• Switchable ICL™ clip-limiters per channel
• Switchable (30-50 Hz) sub-sonic highpass filter per channel
• Three-position gain selector (26, 32 or 38 dB)
• Dual or bridge mode selector
• Twin temperature controlled, back to front cooling fans
• Oversized power components (high SOA reserve specification)
Standard Signal Inputs Module: The S Series amps are equipped as standard with twin Neutrik® XLR, doubled by two other XLR connectors for linking purposes. In the 4 Channel models an XLR input per channel is provided with the signal linking facility.

Analog Processor Module: permits a very easy, user-friendly signal processing to enable the amp to set up a bi-amp system without any other outboard device. These are the Processor's main characteristics:
• 2-way stereo crossover (dual mono or single bridged sub output)
• 24dB/oct Linkwitz-Riley configurable crossover (90, 100 o 120Hz)
• Adjustable attenuation in the High-pass outputs (-3, -6 or -9dB)
• Adjustable Limiter, relative to Max. Output (-3, -6 or -9dB)


DSP44_S Module: Digital Signal Processor fully programmable through an USB port. These are the Processor's main characteristics:
• 4 Inputs/4 Outputs or 2 In/2 Out free route configurable.
• 24 bits/192 kHz 256x Oversampling Converters.
• Output Delay: 0 to 7.1 meters (20.69ms) per channel.
• XOver: Up to 48dB/oct Butterworth, Linkwitz-Riley and Bessel.
• EQ: 9 filters per channel (Parametric, Shelving, LP,HP,BP,SB).
• Gain, Mute and Phase inversion per channel.
• RMS Power and Peak Voltage output limiter per channel.
• Real Time operation from USB or front panel configuration.

BASIC Series - Intelligent Power

BASIC - that's meeting the tightest budgets and professional requirements
in reliability, flexibility and sound. Alone or in combination with the other
products of the Bittner portfolio.
The consequent realisation of the Bittner quality standards indicates once
more our understanding of the contracting business. It underlines our philosophy
that cost consciousness has nothing to do with giving up standards. Compromise
is a word unknown to Bittner Audio!
The incorporation of detent potentiometers, clip limiter, protection circuits for
any imaginable situation, as well as a first-class production process using only
highest-quality components made the BASIC series the choice of most contractors.

Certainly more than basic!
