CROWN XTi 1002 - Two-channel amplifier, 500W @ 4Ω

CROWN XTi 1002 – Two-channel amplifier, 500 W @ 4 Ω

The CROWN XTi 1002 is part of Crown’s XTi 2 Series, renowned for its combination of professional performance and advanced protection . It delivers 500W continuous per channel into 4 Ω (700W @ 2 Ω; 275W @ 8 Ω) and up to 1,400W bridged into 4 Ω , ensuring plenty of headroom and a clean signal thanks to Peakx Plus™ limiters and an onboard subharmonic synthesizer . It features three user-defined fan modes, line voltage and temperature monitoring via HiQnet™ System Architect, and a robust chassis with aluminum handles and a power cable clip for safe handling on tour and in venues.

Main features

• Rated power: 700 W @ 2 Ω; 500W @ 4Ω; 275W @ 8Ω; bridge 1 400 W @ 4 Ω; 1,000 W @ 8 Ω
• Peakx Plus™ Limiters: Full control of threshold, attack and release for maximum system protection
• Enhanced Subharmonic Synthesizer: Frequency, gain, and filter adjustments for optimized bass response
• Fan modes: three profiles (normal, early, maximum speed) adaptable to each environment
• Remote monitoring: visibility of line voltage and source temperature via HiQnet™ System Architect
• Connectivity: Balanced XLR inputs; Speakon™ and screw terminal outputs; power cable clip
• Integrated DSP: high/low pass filters, PureBand™ crossover, limiters, parametric EQs and configurable delays
• Cooling: Front-to-back forced flow with proportional speed; LED indicator silence in dark environments

Product benefits

• Pure signal: DriveCore™ Class D and DSP minimize distortion even at full power.
• Intelligent protection: Peakx Plus™ limiters and priority routing protect speakers from peaks.
• Sound customization: Subharmonic Synth and PureBand™ filters allow for precise bass and crossover tuning.
• Adaptive to the environment: Configurable fan modes and LEDs reduce noise and distractions in dark environments.
• Centralized control: HiQnet™ System Architect facilitates monitoring, diagnostics and preset management from a PC.

Use cases

• PA reinforcement for tours, concerts, and small and medium-sized live events.
• Fixed sound systems in auditoriums, conference rooms, and hospitality venues.
• Integration into AV installations with bridged subwoofers for home theater or clubs.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I activate bridge mode? From the front panel menu or HiQnet™, select “Bridge.”
• Can I turn off all the LEDs? Yes; in the lighting section, turn off all except the clip and thermal.
• What latency does the DSP provide? Internal processing < 1 ms for maximum synchronization.
