  • Nice Amplifier.
Size: 300-Watts
This Crown XLI 800 is a top performer in our surround sound system. It is powering two Bic RTR 1530 frontally used speakers. We play a lot of music with the system, and it sounds great. This model is a basic amplifier without a lot of bells and whistles. It simply does what it is supposed to do at a very affordable price, which is just what I want from an amplifier. The XLI 800 is a silent runner with no floor noise or fan noise to be heard. With music playing it delivers with force and clarity. The whole system sounds better, since the receiver now only needs to power the surround and back surround speakers. It is very user friendly. Regular RCA plugs can be used from the receiver pre-outs to the inputs of the Crown. Binding posts offer easy speaker hook up. As others have mentioned, these Crowns do have protective plastic plugs inserted in the binding posts. Apparently, European style power cords could, in error, be connected to them. Instead, Europeans are advised to use the side slots for speaker wire connections. If you live in the United States you can safely remove the protective plugs. I viewed an on line video, which suggests removing the protective plugs using a small threaded screw. I used a sheet rock screw, turning it by hand until the screw threads just engaged the plastic plugs. The amplifier (of course) should not be connected to a power source, should you follow this approach. In my case, they all pulled out really easy. It has a sensitivity switch allowing it to be set at 1.4 volts or 0.775 volts. For most home systems the 0.775 volt setting will be just fine. You should check the rating of the pre outs on the receiver you plan to use. The only thing that worried me was how to set the gain controls. Technical support at Crown told me to simply turn them up to where the sound seemed best, which I did. I started by placing them around the 2 o'clock position and finally wound up leaving the dials at the 3 o'clock position. You do have to work with speaker placement and some receiver adjustments to get the best sound. I turned down the sensitivity of the receiver, as the sound seemed a bit bright. Each type of speaker is different, and you have to use your receiver adjustments, accordingly. It does have a center light on the front, some might find over powering. To remedy the situation, a small square of electrical tape will cover it. The tape matches the black color of the case, perfectly. . If your speakers need some good solid watts per channel, to get them going, you can't go wrong with this Crown. Finally, these Crowns are built to take it. The case is heavy gauge steel. The weight is a hefty 25.1 pounds for this model. Although not trendy looking, the styling is more about quality and something that does not go out of fashion. That is all good. After all, I hear these Crowns last a long time. ... show more

  • Great amp
Size: 300-Watts
Bought a xls1002 many yrs ago and it has worked great. Saw this and it fit perfectly for my needs (speaker testing - i design and build speakers). The 1002 is class D and i assumed the xli800 was too. Nope. It has a big toroid transformer and pushes 25 lbs. no worries, it still works. And it does, quite well i must say. Fans are super quiet, no hum at all even with single end RCA connection to preamp out (from my PC). Clean, clear sound. I checked the response and its flat from 10 to 20,000 Hz. I have no DA so cant verify distortion, but my ears tell me no problem, even at higher levels. For those of you with hum issues, i suggest learning about balanced and unbalanced input. Also, check supply power and make sure ALL equipment is connected to a single grounded source. No offense, but i find most DJs and musicians are not certified electricians - electrical matters require a certain level of skill. (I also build tube amps where grounding is of paramount importance as well as filament supply isolation). Ground loops can be very subtle and difficult to find. Get expert help if you can’t resolve the issue yourself. IMO, of course. ;-) ... show more

I have 3 Crown amps. This one runs bass shakers in my media room. Their amps are very good and durable

  • Sound is great. How to deal with hum.
Size: 300-Watts
The good: The value is good (e.g., cf. emotiva amps of comparable sound quality). The sound is great. I don't know about that THD 0.5%, it sounds as clean as while more powerful than my onkyo rz50 (which is rated at 120 wt/channel at 8ohms). That's for the least powerful model, xli 800, which approximately all adds up, given its spec. It is curious that this is apparently a class AB amp, not D, which might be a plus on sound and some minus on efficiency, but in practice doesn't seem to have a noticeable to me difference in either category. Now, of course I use it for powering the rear channel in the 7.1.4 setup only, so it does not get a lot of opportunity to shine there. But when i send stereo only thru it (other channels silent), it sounds every bit as fine as the Onkyo, as far as my ear can tell. The issues. Hum?!. Not really. So the only real "fault" of this amplifier is that it is a class I device. That means that as a method of safe operation it connects its chassis to the ground prong directly, instead of using electronic protection and advanced isolation enclosures as my AVR and sub do. That also means that its RCA's functional ground also goes directly to ground prong. That's not unusual in this kind of equipment, my powered mixer does the same thing. This is so that artitstic expressions of karaoke performers are not stimulated by occasional jolts of electricity. In other words, it introduces a new ground to your system. If you get a hum (aka ground loop), it is because multiple grounds start "talking" to each other due to "bad ground" -- a significant difference in impedances of their ground paths to the true ground. It is very unlikely that it is Crown that has a ground fault -- it has a very solid power cord connection. Far more likely, there already is a ground loop interference in the system, it's just now you can also hear it. So it's actually good that you have a chance to test and troubleshoot it now, instead of going unnoticed. It is likely not AVR (if it is two prong) or any other AVR-connected two-prong device. It could be any device connected to AVR via hdmi or ethernet, or audio cables. You can test by disconnecting them one by one and seeing if hum disappears. Chances are if you did not have it before, it is only one existing bad ground. In my case it turned out to be the firestick which I was too lazy to connect to its stock power supply, so instead i connected it to my synology usb out using some shady usb cable with a choke. Other common reasons are bad cables that also create impedance and are happy to pick some interference along the way. Or plugging into different AC circuits running long ground wires around the house to panel before they have a chance to bring their electric potential to the same level. Quite typically when connected to a projector. I did spend a few days before i fully resolved it, but in the end the recipe was very simple: (1) use monoprice rca 2 XLR cables instead of monster rca cables (that alone reduced hum by like 20db, surprisingly), and (2) plugging fire stick in its stock psu using stock cable. Dead silent when idle, now. Many people just lift the ground on the amp power cord, it is not a correct solution. It's better to clean the ground anyway, not just for safety reasons, but for digital connections too. Esp. with kids in the house. Either way it is unlikely a problem with the amp, so chances are ordering replacement will not solve it (as some attempted here). Hope this helps. Another wince: unless mounted into 19inch rack, the side mounts look ugly in a media tower (IMHO). Also, no 12 v trigger, but $12 smart power strip with master-slave sockets works very well to power it (and other things if needed) down when AVR goes down. TBD: longevity. ... show more
