Crown Audio is one of the industry leader in amplified sound. Crown makes amps for cinema venues, installed sites, touring rigs, portable PA and commercial audio. With over 67 years of focus on innovation and providing the best user experience, Crown Audio is continually raising the bar in audio amplification. The XLi Series of power amplifiers from Crown represents a new era in affordable, quality power amplification. All four models in the series are powerful, rugged and reliable.

  • Ludicrous Speed
Size: 1350-Watts
I recently replaced my Rotel RB-1090 with (2) Crown XLI2500's. I am DEFINITELY a "Home Audio" to "Pro Audio" convert! Everything that applies to the XLI2500 applies to the 3500's as well....... PLUS some benefits.....Please read my review here... then come back.... https://www.amazon.com/gp/review/R1XNYNCQ20NP8B?ref_=glimp_1rv_cl if you read my review on the 2500's you might ask...why in the world would you upgrade?? TWO reasons...... FIRST REASON: On some hard hitting Jazz tracks that are very demanding.....while sipping on an adult beverage....and playing it at UNREAL levels...(about the 11:30) position on the volume knob.....ONE of the CLIP lights on ONE of the channels on ONE of the amps started to flicker. The sound never changed.....it remained crystal clear.....but....it showed me that to go any further (crazy) I needed to dial back the Amp's outputs just a "smidge"....or......turn off the "loudness" button on the pre-amp.......or take some low end out of the EQ. As we all serious listeners know....this is par for the course at "some level" and perfectly acceptable and no reflection on the Amp. Which brings me to the...... SECOND REASON: I was able to send the 2500's back and upgrade to the 3500's since I only had the priors for a week. I happen to like the Loudness button ON! It imparts a sonic "punch and sizzle" that goes missing when turned off. You can play with the controls all day long .....but it does not impart the PUNCH the loudness circuit does. I also like my settings just where they are. I do not want to have to "adjust settings" at extreme levels any more. I want the settings that I like to remain at ANY volume.......and be PERFECT. (is that asking too much) 3500 PLUS BENEFITS: I did not order the 3500's to begin with because I was afraid with 1000 watts plus.....there might be a "buzz" and I was also concerned about power consumption. There is ZERO buzz or noise. Also....at full rated power the Amps only consume 700 watts each! That's less than a hair dryer! The 3500's are a tad smoother than the 2500's. It was hard to believe at first....but the reason is because there is SO MUCH reserve power that it plays demanding passages like they were BUDDA! (butter) lol I played the same tracks anxiously to see what the capabilities of these monsters were. I can tell you PROBLEM SOLVED!! I went PAST the clip point (2500's) with the same settings at an UNREAL level that is absolutely crazy and everything stayed smooooth, crystal clear and zero clip lights. I never listen to music at this extreme level because I want to keep my hearing! But now I KNOW I have the ULTIMATE in Home Audio and that no matter what I throw at them my Amps are laughing at me because that is ALL I can take! Concerned about these 2 Monster Amps drawing too much amperage on a dedicated 20 amp circuit,,,,I pulled my electrical panel and placed my Amp Meter on the circuit to measure Amp draw. At about the 9:30 position on the volume dial.....with a bass heavy track....and the house shaking from extremely loud sound pressures....the amp draw was......are you ready for this.......between 1.83 and 3.4 amps!! WOW! That's 2 Amps! The Amps remain cool as a cucumber and act as if nothing is happening in the room! THAT is how I want my Amps to act! lol The power these monsters make is "ludicrous speed" !! (Reference to the movie Space Balls)! If you have seen this Movie you know what I am talking about! If you have not seen it.....you really should.....it will make you laugh and forget about this crazy world for a while:) (plus you will know what I am talking about)! You CANNOT go wrong with either the 2500 or 3500 series in a Home audio setting. I am sure the 3500 will handle even the most demanding Pro Audio demands as well. The amps are silent, crystal clear, have a big open sound stage that keeps opening the more power you apply, run very cool and consume very little power. They blow away Home Amps.....for a LOT LESS coin! So after all these years.....my "bucket list" of owning LUDICROUS SPEED power amplifiers is finally fulfilled;) If you desire an amplifier that is "yawning and reading the paper" while you are rocking the entire neighborhood......well my friends.....spend 550 bucks and put a Crown XLI3500 under your audio systems hood.......GT:) ... show more

  • xli 2500 compared to the xli 3500
Size: 1350-Watts
Its worth the cost, however, the xli2500 seems just as loud and possibly cleaner for less.

  • GREAT FOR SUBS BUT CHECK THE POWER CONNECTION
Size: 1350-Watts
OK so many have told me I'm imagining things so I decided to show the proof. My XLi3500 came with a 20 amp socket for the power cord. Luckily it also came with an unusual power cord hat has the 20 amp connecter on the amp end but a regular 15 amp (standard wall socket) plug on the wall end. I don't have 20 amp sockets in my house so I can't use my big aftermarket power cords. Pangea makes one for this but it's a few hundred bux. The amp doesn't have feet so I used the heavy duty rubber feet for washing machines, Amazon has several to choose from and they are every bit as good as expensive 'audiophile' feet. This amp has some hiss at the tweeter on full range speakers, it get loud without strain of course but it's not a hifi amp by any means. For big subs it is in command, it puts out tons of current to my two Dayton Ultimax 18s in the theater room. For loud movies it's too much power, I have the gains down below the 12 o'clock position and still turned my processor sub level down about 4db. The fan is inaudible with music playing, quieter than my AC vents when they are blowing. If you need a cost effective stereo amp go with the XLi2500 or XLS1502 / XLS2002, they all have more power than anyone will need for music. The lightweight XLS series sounds night and day better than the XLi series with music/movies and you can put five XLS amps in a room without tripping breakers as might happen with several big XLi amps. Some say the XLi series is a big step up when driving subs but keep in mind you can't bridge them on a 4 ohm sub. They will of course power a pair of 4 ohm subs no problem. I had a pair of XLS2502 amps each one bridged on a single Ultimax 18 and I can't say the XLi3500 powering these two subs in stereo is night and day better, time will tell. I am a big Crown fan but the QSC GX5 sounds better for full range music and they now have very quiet fans compared to about 8 years back. ... show more

  • Possible fault circuit issues
Size: 1350-Watts
I don't know this is common with these amps, But some reviews tell there may be an issue with these. First it didn't really seem all that powerful. It came with thr faceplate bent in, clean damage like it fell in a warehouse in package but package was fine. After a few minutes the fault lights came on and sound went off until it reset. Did this at low power, and lower and then it just stayed in fault mode. Changed all connections and reset. It was still in fault with no connections. Could be a one off but I think I'll just pay more and get a QSC. I'm afraid if I get another, this issue may happen after it's out of warranty. Just sharing this for others to help decide. This was to used as a musician's setup. I zee a lot of people buying them to use in home entertainment systems. ... show more

  • Great amp for home use and a great value
Size: 1350-Watts
Using this 2,700 watt Crown to power subs in the house. It’s great. The fan is quiet. If there is no music playing and I turn it off, I notice the difference, but it’s barely noticeable. It’s like the sound of a nice refrigerator running in the kitchen ( not the cheap noisy ones in a hotel room) so, I never notice the sound of the fan. I tried a Behringer EP4000 and it was much louder. These amps are ideal for home use. I have an Anthem 235 I paid $2,000 for. I like it but I keep wondering what I get for that money when this Crown has three times the power and cost a third of what the consumer amp did. Point is it’s a great value. I now have three Crown amps in my home / bedroom theatre system ( two 3500’s and a 1500 ). Some other things that make this great for home use: It has RCA unbalanced inputs and switchable input sensitivity. This means you can interface it with consumer home audio equipment without the use of any kind of adapters. At first I was worried about how much power it would draw, but no worries: on a standard household 110 volt , 15 amp circuit you can drive it hard and it works great. Crown has a power draw chart on their website for these amps. They draw less current they you might think considering their power output ratings. Great amps and not just for professional use. I highly recommend ... show more

  • Garbage
Size: 1350-Watts
When I first got it. It seemed very powerful. I had it playing 2 15s for bass. Today I turn on my system and as soon as I turn up the bass on my controller I heard a loud bang from both of my speakers. When I look at the amp it was glowing red on the fault lights. I have had it and played for almost a year. So it seems like a reliability issue. I won’t be buying crown again. ... show more

  • Monster of an amp
Size: 1350-Watts
Just as the title suggests, this is a monster of an amp. You really have to ensure your breakers are up to the challenge if pushing full rated power from this thing. I haven't had any sound quality issues at this point. It's being used to power a Dayton Ultimax 18" per channel. My only complaint about this amp is the fan noise. It's not crazy loud (I've owned amps with louder fans) but it is noticeable if you're in the same room as it. ... show more
