Reviews around crown (5.00 of 5)

  • My Bose 10.2 Series IIs are not as power-hungry as some vintage Bose speakers: still, I felt like my 55-watt Luxman R-405 wasn't quite up to the task of bringing out their best
  • First, this is a simple no frills A/B Class toroidal amp, no bells & whistles, no on-board DSP, just that classic clean powerful Crown sound
  • Subs are growling as soon as I touch the volume .I recommend Crown all the way .
  • After some research I discovered that many people were using professional amplifiers to power more inefficient home speakers, and that Crown was highly regarded.

Reviews around music (5.00 of 5)

  • I let this amp run all day long pumping music while I work.
  • This amp sounds much better: it feels like it really gives the music the body and
  • Dead quiet when on and they made the music at the exact same settings cleaner just by hooking up this amp.

  • It's got so much power the fans are super quiet they always run so no over thermal heat
  • My neighbors love my music now lol If im playing music at full volume for about 5 minutes straight, the fans kick on high

  • I read, which implied that the fans are so quiet you can't ever hear
  • This is great to have the amp sounds great at home and is very powerful the fans are dead silent but keep it cool used it for 1 hour and was so happy with the purchase had to leave a review of it.

  • The only negative the power amp has is no 12v trigger to turn it on with the
  • Item was delivered with wrong power voltage 120V/60Hz despite indication on the web-site 220V 50 Hz.

  • Simple easy and more than enough power for my speakers and then some

  • After some research I discovered that many people were using professional amplifiers to power more inefficient home speakers, and that Crown was highly regarded.
  • Hi I have 6 Ev sx300 passive speakers would like to
  • My Bose 10.2 Series IIs are not as power-hungry as some vintage Bose speakers: still, I felt like my 55-watt Luxman R-405 wasn't quite up to the task of bringing out their best
  • As I noted above, I have turned the gain all the way up on the Crown for my application as this allows me to get up to the 200-300w range for peak signals.... which is going to allow me to really maximize what these speakers are capable of without having to really stress the pre-amp circuit in my receiver and cause clipping.
  • What were very good speakers before were now amazing: they compare favorably to my modified Klipsch Fortes on dynamic range and bass, and that is saying something indeed.

Reviews around design flaw (1.00 of 5)

  • I'm changing my rating to 4 stars, would be 5 stars if not for the design flaw.
  • I have since resolved the hum issue and it is not the seller's problem, it is a basic design flaw in the Crown amp which could have been prevented with a 20 cent switch
