2-ohm stereo (per channel): 8400W
4-ohm stereo (per channel): 600W
8-ohm stereo (per channel): 370W
8-ohm bridge mono: 1200W

The following applies to units in Stereo mode with 8-ohm loads and rated input sensitivity unless otherwise specified.

Performance
Sensitivity (volts RMS) for full rated power at 4 ohms: 1.26

Frequency Response (at 1 watt) 20 Hz to 20 kHz: +/-0.75 dB

Phase Response (degrees at 1 watt)
at 10 Hz: +10.
at 20 kHz: +19.

Signal-to-Noise Ratio (20 Hz to 20 kHz)
A-weighted, below rated power: > 100 dB
No weighting, below rated power: > 95 dB

Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) at full bandwidth power, from 20 Hz to 1 kHz: < 0.5%

Intermodulation Distortion (IMD) (60 Hz and 7 kHz at 4:1) from full rated output to +40 dB: < 0.3%

Damping Factor (8 ohm) 10 Hz to 400 Hz: >200

Crosstalk (below rated power)
at 1 kHz: +82 dB.
at 20 kHz: +58 dB

Voltage Gain (at maximum output): 31 dB

Power
Load Impedance: Safe with all types of loads. Rated for 2 to 8 ohms in Stereo, 8 ohms in Bridge-Mono

Crown XLS-602 A Power Amp Customer Review

Overall: 1 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
We returned the amp and did not want to try getting another of the same model.
Quality
We ordered this amp and it arrived with a defect - one side of the amp was not working. We returned the amp and a replacement was sent. When the replacement amp arrived, it had the same problem....side 2 of the amp was not working. I called Crown and got the tech there to walk through the amp testing with me over the phone, he agreed the amp was defective. After receiving two in a row like this we decided not to try again and went to a different model.
Value
It would probably be a good value if the quality were there.
Manufacturer Support
My contact with Crown was pleasant and they did return my calls and emails. They asisted me in conrfirming the problem and that was a positivie of the situaiton.
