Crown XLi 3500 Power Amplifier

The XLi 3500 tops out Crown's XLi range at 675 W per channel into 8 ohms (1350 W total), enough headroom to run a pair of subwoofers or full-range mains without stepping up to a DriveCore-class amp. Forced-air cooling and protection circuitry against shorts, no-load conditions, power-on/off transients, and RF interference are built in for the same reliability the smaller XLi models carry, scaled to a bigger load.

Electronically balanced RCA and XLR inputs with switchable 0.775V/1.4V sensitivity and Speakon plus binding-post outputs make it a drop-in replacement or addition to most rigs. Stereo, parallel, and bridge-mono operating modes are set on the back panel, and front-panel LEDs for signal presence, clip, and fault give a quick read on amp status from across a stage.
