Good amplifier for a great price
AvdK 25.09.2020
For the price you get a real performer. High wattage at a good price. I have them coupled to a pair of Bowers & Wilkins CM6S2 and they sound quite good.
I previously had a NAD M22 coupled to them, and while the XLS 1502 does not sound as good as the M22, at the price point of the XLS 1502 I think it is hard to beat!

The only downside I see to it is that it does not have an auto on/of. You have to turn it on and off manually.

Great for home use
TheSchnitzelGuy 04.03.2019
Bought this amplifier for my Hifi setup after reading several positive forum posts from others that also have used the XLS amplifiers within their home setups. The amp has great sound quality. Fan noise and hiss are almost inaudible. Because of the .775v input sensitivity option, the amplifier can be used with normal home-grade preamps and such. I can most definitely recommend this amplifier.

Great amp!
Skinda0 11.02.2020
Bought one of these to drive 2 RCF S8015LP in bridge mode and it has performed this task perfectly! The weight saving is a huge plus instead of carrying round a 20+kg amp, this little 4kg one does what the old amp did and more! I am not using any of the built in crossovers but they would come in very usefull if you wanted a simple plug and play system with no need for external crossovers.
I may buy another one!

Excellent, as reviewed
CitizenErased 03.07.2019
Got this as a power amp for my bass cabinet. I have plenty of preamps so I chose to go modular instead of buying a bass amplifier, this way the Crown can double as a Hi-Fi amp in the future.
Love the size and weight, it's ultra portable and everything I've read in reviews so far is accurate, probably best power amp for the money.
The one con is the lack of a dedicated bridged out, which means you need to rewire your speaker cables if you intend to use this in bridged mode.

Great transparent power amp
Jazzyvee 04.01.2019
I use this power amp for my HI-FI ultra clean electric bass rig. I use high end basses and wanted a power amplifier to replace my QSC PLX2402 amp that would still give me a pristine clean sound with non of the edgy sounds that I have heard in "classic" bass rigs. This power amp delivers superbly.
Pros: lightweight, clear, sound with superb handling of transients in the sound.
Cons: The only think I can say here is that to my ears I don't think it delivers the same density of sound as my previous QSC PLX 2402 power amp.
But the lightweight nature of the Crown makes it a more convenient beast to use regularly.

Great Choice
asouy 17.01.2022
My Crown XLS 1502 amp is great. I either use it with either EV ELX112s or two ROISTER 5 inch studio monitors. The sound is so clear and powerful!

Great amp for the price
centarscena 19.06.2020
I was stunned that amp in that price range could perform at that level. I used a couple of them in my install projects with both ceiling and on-wall speakers, it worked great in both cases. The DSP is also helpful, it gives you plenty of options to choose, from crossover, input sensitivity and input mode, limiter, etc.
Overall, great amp with plenty of power for good price. I didn't tried it with subwoofers yet, but for mid-high is definite recommendation.

Great PA amplifier
AJ S 29.11.2020
This was to replace a previous Crown PA amplifier that had died after many decades of use. Dead easy to use, great sounding audio, no audio hiss, no fan noise in our usage for church PA (presumably the fan comes on if it is driven hard). Coupled with that it was very well packaged and delivery and price from Thomann were good too.

Decent amp!
Christi R 18.12.2018
I bought this for some monitor speakers in my rehearsal space and I wanted to make sure I wanted some quality instead of cheaper no-brand names. So far so good - the Crown name is trustworthy and I also really like how it looks. The menu system is great allowing different modes (but I just it in split stereo for now).

It arrived in very good packaging so I had no worries with it travelling across from Germany to me in the UK..

A great workhorse amp I have had no issues with!
