Does the Crown XLS 2000 Do Its Rated Power? (Amp Dyno Test)

- in this video, we take a deep dive into testing the Crown XLS 2000 amplifier to see if it truly delivers the power it promises. Using the SMD AMM-1, we'll put the XLS 2000 through its paces on resistive loads to determine if it meets its rated power output.
For this test, we're focusing exclusively on 4 ohm bridged mode, which is equivalent to running 2 ohms per channel.
This setup still allows us to accurately measure the amp's performance and power capabilities.
Whether you're considering this amp for your setup or just curious about how well it performs, join us for a detailed breakdown of its capabilities, efficiency, and real-world performance.
Does the Crown XLS 2000 Perform ?

This is great bro, really well thought out loads of detail and presentation 😎 Keep these up!
I will try bro, thank you 🙏
Owning one of these myself this is a really good in depth review of what the amp's really capable of. It even shows tricks I was never aware of, keep it up!!
Glad you learnt something new bro 🙏
The front panel looks like an audio cassette :P
It does 😂
Please test your Behringer NX amp, i‘m really interested if its actually that powerful
Great informative video bro love to see it doing rated and more!
yo why did you reupload?
How many amps is that circuit breaker above the IEC inlet rated for? A power requirement of 350W is clearly designated between that breaker and the IEC. So, physics being somewhat rigid it would be impossible to continuously output more than 350W with only 350 drawn from the mains. But it might give bursts of very high output. I remember Crown from way back when they built very high powered class AB amps and they certainly met their ratings. I'm baffled by the 350W power input designation. Cool video.
The IHF standard typically tests an amplifier’s power output, thermal behavior, and distortion while running at 1/4 of its rated power. For example, if an amplifier is rated to deliver 1000 watts at full output, under the IHF standard, the testing would involve operating it at 250 watts continuously.
the reason why it says 350w at the back is because that how much power it will consume on low power levels (IHS standard)
JBL never disappoints with their amps, truly a reliable company when it comes to pro audio
Thank you for your comment, bro
Crown Amplifiers is owned by Harman International, which is a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics.
Good job bro. You should test admark k30 amplifier and see if it really 14000
I’d have to top up on the resistor banks but yeah sure why not 😂🙏
What are those drivers sitting on the box next to the amp?
@@BARBELLS-AND-BUDS INPHASE spx 17c and bass face Indy xm 10
@@-SINEWAVE02 Are they SQ speakers? They look well built!
Also I looked for those subs in the US and not to be found, but I did find the INPHASE spx
@@BARBELLS-AND-BUDSehhh it’s hard to say bro they are just targeted for automotive environments they could work really well though as PA for the bass face and the SPX is sound pretty good
I swear you've uploaded this like 3 times now
Yep
@@-SINEWAVE02 What went wrong the first 2 times?
@@josiahwillemsebmx it don’t matter, it’s here now 🙏💚🔊
@@-SINEWAVE02 No worries 😂
i want crown xti full equilizer settings want play pioneer 3003d4
Nice bro
Great video bro! keep it up
LOL in the US you wouldn't get anywhere near that! Friggin 120 Volts.....
it would be a good test if the power rating vary from 240 and 120 v would be a good video
Buy 240v version and conect it between your 180° 2 phase 😂
why are you keep uploading and deleting the same video 😅
TH-cam notifications are working then 👌
Really enjoying these long videos, keep up the good work bro 👊
thanks bro it means alot
*so your telling me a crown XLS2500 would be fine for my sundown X15*
More then enough 👊
@@-SINEWAVE02 *Oi mate can i aak a few more Questions regarding these amps?*
@@erikbritz8095 of course you can bro fire away
Dyno a tamp1500
I would love too, I’ll be buying my safety goggles for that one 😅
@@-SINEWAVE02 ok bro
Brilliant job , really tested one of the best known amp names on the market used these in the day never let me down mine are old CS 2000 and Crown Macro Tech 3,600 's this shook the room with subs.
I love my crown amplifiers even when I knew nothing about AUDIO. These amplifiers always had a soft spot in my heart now with the continuously growing measurement devices im acquiring. I’m seeing bit by bit how great these amplifiers truly are.
@@-SINEWAVE02 Yeah when i was using mine you also had a brand called Crest,Lab Gruppen,Dynacord,Wem etc but all in all The Crown Range was definitely the Best and most powerful in my opinion.Some old friends of mine did some huge concerts with Macro Tech 5000 they where beast's .
@@chriscollins9073 yeah, the good old macro tech. I was privileged to be able to use some when I visited Barevids. You can’t beat the smell that comes out of them when they get warm. Crown is good. I would love to work with them in the future.
✨✨👏🏻👏🏻
Crowns are very nice amps.
yeah bro cant wait to test more in the future crown xls 2500 next ?
Those are NOT volume controls
@@chemicallust77 On PA amps, the gain is often labeled as “input sensitivity” or simply “volume.”
@@chemicallust77 and since my amp shows it 0- 10 that would represent volume. The more you know Ayy
In practical terms, turning this knob controls how much of the amplified signal is sent to the speaker connected to this channel, effectively acting as a “volume” knob for the channel. While it impacts the perceived loudness, it is not a “gain” control in the pre-amplification sense but more about adjusting the level of power delivered by the amplifier.
The key difference is that the gain control adjusts the input signal level before amplification, whereas this knob is part of the final output stage, controlling how much power goes to the speakers. Thus, it’s primarily for managing volume rather than fine-tuning the input gain.
nice vid sine
Thank you bro
bro test SPL with all of your subs
Nah there no point it’s not something I’d want to share on the channel as it points it in a direction I don’t want to go
This is only an amp. rating (partial) conformity test...
& Not aspeaker handling test.
@@analoghardwaretops3976 Testing amplifiers on resistive loads can provide very reliable information because resistors offer a stable, predictable load. Unlike real speakers, which can vary a lot in how they behave, resistors keep things simple and consistent. This makes it easier to measure important performance factors like power output, distortion, and heat management accurately. By using a resistive load first, you can get a clear picture of how well an amplifier works without the complications that real speakers introduce, making it easier to spot any strengths or weaknesses before moving on to more complex tests.
