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 have the 1000W version of this amp, and for the price it is quite excellent: light, powerful, clean output. I use it for small parties with 2ohm car subwoofers, works and sounds excellent, and it cost me much less than even a single decent PA sub. I'm not saying I would do serious gigs with it, but for family events it's quite nice - and since my subs already live in the trunk, it's less clutter in the garage.

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!!

I had the xls 2502 driving two 15 inch pa subs it was a true monster

Really enjoying these long videos, keep up the good work bro 👊

You always see cheaper amps for sale. Don't waste your money, Crown always delivers.

Very nice, would be perfect for home testing on subs and enclosures of such. I like your review crown. It makes awesome equipment. Thanks for posting

[BEASTBOOST]

Great informative video bro love to see it doing rated and more!

[rudycorraudio]

Great video! I personally have this amplifier in my home theater pushing a pair of JLAudio 13W7. It sounds great.

[johnstarks]

Great video, I've always wanted someone to dyno some of these PA amps. especially crown, CVR, & Admark.

[chriscollins]

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.

bought myself an xls2000 for £200. thanks for this dude, i literally wouldnt have pulled the trigger without this vid lmao

[RobloxUHDSlay]

Please test your Behringer NX amp, i‘m really interested if its actually that powerful

[matt]

Nice presentation. These are great amps and can be found used at pretty good prices.

[Superficial_david]

Great video. I have several Crown amps, all running subs I my theater and for the price are strong and reliable. I was actually running a DSI 4000 @2ohm bridged, yes I know it’s only recommended to run @4ohm bridged but it was doing a good job.

[djfoxhype]

I really enjoy watching this video.. can you do a test with the Crown XTI4000 please

[liillokkaa]

Williston Audio Labs x SineWave collab coming soon? 😅

[imtiazibrahim]

Nice....Very educational video.... can you the admark ad 42 and ad 60 amplifier

[JamesCutlervktim]

The front panel looks like an audio cassette :P

[Marcink]

Very nice video. I love such tests to confirm if factory or seller did not lie about the parameters. For example Behringer NX3000 on paper has 3kW bridge but in reality only 1kW.
