The Crown XLS 802D is a-two channel stereo amplifier, offering 500W per side at 8 ohms, and housed in an exceptionally rugged 2 RU all-steel chassis.

The XLS 802D is notable for providing advanced protection circuitry, efficient forced-air fan cooling, and other enhancements normally associated with more expensive amplifiers, at a refreshingly moderate price point. This is trickle-down technology for the rest of us, from one of the premier amplifier manufacturers, and a worthy component of budget-conscious installations for conference rooms, houses of worship, clubs, theaters and lecture halls.

              I love this amplifier. It is good quality, has plenty of power and it was the best price anywhere!! It was such a good deal that I was able to purchase a second one to properly set up the speaker amplification system at our church.
