Comments about Crown Audio XLS 5000 Stereo Power Amplifier (1100W/Channel @ 8 Ohms):
I owned this amp,"XLS-5000" since July/2010 and must say unlimited power with lots and lots of headroom.
However after setting up amp on 10/15/11 at an outside gig temp was 60 degrees I turned it on with volume pods turned down to zero and continued with the remainder of my set-up including speakers and mixer,etc.After 10-15 mins pop yes I hear a loud pop and see the amp has turned off due to power strip breaker turning off.I did this several times with same result,then assuming it was a weak or bad power strip,I removed the plug from the power strip and pugged directly into the wall outlet.The amp goes into protection mode with the lights blinking and the upper circuit breaker on back of amp turning off.I then disconnected the imputs/outputs and tried again several times by the four occurence the amp started to smoke,end of story.This amp has never run at full power,the pods are only slightly above the Mid-Volume Mark.Considering this amp is quite heavy 62lbs + the case equals=70lbs and build like a TigerTank,I am surprised that this occurred. Possible explanation is that I store my amp outside in the van.Could turning the amp on without a warm-up have caused this?. Keep in mind this was an outside gig at 5:00pm with temp 55-60 degrees.The tech-reps at Crown say no problem with storing an amp in the Van..Here's another senario a year prior a similar senario occured with my CE-2000, except it was an indoor gig in June. After the amp was on for 2-3mins with imputs/outputs connected the amp started smoking and sparking,end of story..I then connected my backup amp to same speakers & mixer and performed for a 5 hr wedding with no problems.This amp had been setting in my van for the past two years without being used.Keep in mind it was June/2010 and quite warm. I've been Djing for 18 years and always keep my amps in the van and never had a problem like this before.
If anyone can comment or give advise on this please do.
