Compared side by side
The Crown XLS1002 2-Channel Class D DriveCore Power Amplifier appears in this table next to models from other brands:
Who it's for
A 4 Ω or 8 Ω passive home subwoofer fed from an AV receiver. Use one channel up to 350 W, or bridge it for a bigger single sub.
Caveats
- Crown's page lists THD < 0.5% with no power level or frequency band, so the 350 W figure has no stated test conditions.
- Audio Science Review measured one channel much worse than the other. That matters little for a sub but does for full-range use.
- It is a rack box with forced-air fans, though Audio Science Review heard none during testing.
