Crown XTi 6000 Power Amplifiers are rated for a maximum power output of 6000 watts in bridged mono operation, sufficient to power the PA systems or in-house sound for the largest concert venues - even those that are outdoors. The XTi 6000 is a dual channel power amplifier, and in stereo operation, can produce up to 3000 watts of muscle per channel when driving 2 ohm stereo speakers. For any outdoor concert event, even those that last all day, the XTi 6000 is a stellar choice for the most demanding of applications. The XTi 6000 provides enough power to be used with both a subwoofer and a main speaker simultaneously, making it an ideal choice for bands and DJs alike.

The XTi 6000's digital modeling circuitry allows for 15 user selectable presets, with settings for delay, equalization, and volume limiting that can be independently modified by the user. A setting is also included that enhances the subsonic bass frequency response that subwoofers demand. If more of a pure tone is desired, however, these settings can be disabled completely.

Featuring a sturdy rackmount chassis, the XTi 6000 is designed to withstand the rigors of touring and continue to pump out high quality sound in even the harshest environments. Weighing just 24 pounds, however, it is extremely easy to store and transport from one venue to another. The XTi 6000 has excellent thermal characteristics, and is able to remain cool through all day concert events. If it is mounted improperly, or a vent is blocked, you can remain confident that permanent damage will not occur. A series of fault notification LEDs on the front of the unit alert the user if any problems exist, such as overheating or electrical overload, and the amplifier will quickly shut down to prevent electrical damage in the event of an issue. Additionally, the XTi is protected by a three year no fault warranty, which guarantees replacement or repair if the amplifier is damaged, even if that damage is the result of user error.

Look in the sound room of nearly every major concert venue, and you are likely to found Crown amplifiers. Many performing bands rely so heavily on Crown technology that their performing contracts explicitly state that Crown amplifiers must be provided by the venue. Crown has built upon its reputation for durability, reliability, and world class sound quality since its founding in 1947, and the XTi series sets a new standard for power amplification by including digital modeling features that have never been available before at such an affordable price point.

Crown XTi 6000 Power Amplifiers - Summary:
* Produces a maximum of 6000 watts in mono operation, or 3000 watts in dual channel mode
* 15 user selectable presets for a variety of digital modeling enhancements, including one specifically for subwoofers
* Extensive fault tolerance protects the unit from heat or electrical damage

The XTi 4000 is a power amplifier for medium to large concert venues. Its maximum output of 3200 watts in bridged mono operation is more than sufficient to power instrumentalists, vocalists, or DJs to the back rows of nearly any concert hall. In stereo operation, the XTi 4000 is capable of a maximum of 1600 watts when driving a pair of 2 ohm speakers. This level of power is sufficient for subwoofers, or to drive a subwoofer on one channel and a main speaker on the other. It is even powerful enough for most outdoor venues, although outdoor venues seeking an amplifier for a permanent sound setup may wish to consider the more powerful Crown XTi 6000, which produces a maximum output of 6000 watts.

A number of modern power amplifiers feature digital modeling technology, enabling the user to customize his or her sound to their liking. The XTi 4000 features a variety of customizations available, including various filters, automatic volume limiters, and delay. All of these, including a mode specially designed for subwoofers, are selectable in up to 15 user defined presets. If desired, the digital modeling can also be disabled completely for a pure tone.

The XTi features a backlit LCD display on the front, plus LEDs for each channel confirming proper operation, or alerting the user when fault protection circuitry is enabled due to overheating or electrical faults. The XTi series was the first to use Crown's Icepak technology, enabling them to model the thermal characteristics of their amplifiers on computer workstations, examining the way they would behave before they were built. The result is a power amplifier that is lighter than ever at just 18.5 pounds, yet remains cool enough due to its forced induction fan system to continue proper operation even in the most demanding all day concert performances. Additionally, the XTi 4000 is backed by Crown's no fault three year warranty, ensuring that the amplifier will be repaired or replaced in the event of a malfunction, even if that malfunction is caused by the user.

Crown International has long been among the world's most famous providers of audio amplification equipment, and with its XTi series of power amplifiers, Crown has created a new standard in amplification. Crown XTi 4000 Power Amplifiers integrate Crown's legendary power and sound quality with digital modeling technology, in a package that is less expensive, lighter, and easier to transport than anything that has ever been available on the market before.

Crown XTi 4000 Power Amplifiers - Summary:
* Rated for a maximum output of 3200 watts in monaural mode, or 1600 watts in dual channel stereo operation
* Full digital modeling enables customization of the amplifier's tone for a variety of applications, or can be completely disabled if desired
* Numerous protective mechanisms allow the amplifier to automatically shut down before damage occurs due to overheating or electrical faults

The Crown XTi 2000 Power Amplifier is capable of a maximum 2000 watts of output, when operating in bridged mono mode and driving a 4 ohm speaker load. When placed into standard stereo mode, 2 ohm speakers can be driven at a maximum of 1000 watts. For some applications, the XTi 2000 provides sufficient power to place a subwoofer on one channel, and a main speaker on the other. It is an ideal choice for almost any small to medium concert venue. Bands who are still playing in smaller clubs, however, may be better served by the slightly lower power XTi 1000, while outdoor or permanent installations might demand the higher power output of the XTi 4000 or XTi 6000.

Digital modeling is certainly the way of the future in amplification. Crown has banked on this by providing a wide range of digital customization features in the XTi 2000, including presets for equalization, volume limiting, and delay. It also includes a special filter designed especially for use with subwoofers. In all, the XTi includes 15 selectable presets, which can all be modified by the user. Also, if you wish, digital modeling can be disabled completely.

Even the most durable electronic equipment can be stymied by user error or environmental factors, so the XTi 2000 comes equipped with some of the most resilient fault protection in the industry. In the event of improperly connected equipment that could cause an overload or speaker clipping, such as DJ equipment with onboard pre-amplification, the XTi 2000 will automatically shut down and notify the user of a problem through the front mounted LEDs and backlit liquid crystal display. The amplifier is also able to protect itself from overheating (which only happens in the event of improper installation, thanks to its forced air induction cooling), and electrical fault or overload. Additionally, Crown XTi 2000 Power Amplifiers are backed by Crown's three year, no fault warranty. During this time, the amplifier will be repaired or replaced in the event of any type of damage, including that which was caused by user error.
