USA> - Crown's Xs Series amplifiers are proving a solid, cost-effective choice for powering installed sound systems in houses of worship, the company reports. Jeff Gefke of Calvary Audio Ministry recently chose the Xs Series for Calvary Chapel churches in Visalia, California and Rio Grand, Texas, while another installation using Xs Series amps by Calvary Audio Ministry is currently underway in Oceanside, California.

The power range and versatility of the Xs Series makes it easy to match amplifier power to the requirements of the various loudspeakers used in an installation. For example, in Visalia, a single four-channel Xs 4300 and two Xs 700 amps power the JBL AE Series LCR system, with channels to spare for stage and side-fill monitors, and Xs 700 amps power the subs. Commenting on the performance of the system, Gefke said, "During the Grand Opening with over 1000 people attending and a loud Christian rock band (Tree63), the amps did not even get warm!"

In Rio Grand, Xs 500, Xs 700, and Xs 900 amps collectively power the main, monitor, sub and back-fill loudspeakers, again taken from the JBL AE Series. Both the Visalia and Rio Grand systems also utilize dbx Professional Driverack processors for signal processing. Gefke noted: "The fellowship commented that they didn't know such a large space could possibly sound that good regardless of listener location in the room."
