• XPA 1002 two-channel stereo audio power amplifier
• XPA 2001-70V mono audio power amplier
• XPA 2001-100V mono audio power amplier
Terms Used in this Manual
The terms “amplifier” and “power amplifier” are used interchangeably in this manual to
refer to all of the XPA models. XPA 2001 refers to both the XPA 2001-70V and the
XPA 2001-100V.
Features
Inputs — Balanced or unbalanced stereo or mono on a 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw
connector.
Speaker outputs — Screw-lock, 5 mm captive screw connectors enable simple, secure
connections with 22 AWG to 12 AWG speaker cables.
Continuous power output for larger rooms —
• XPA 1002: 60 watts rms per channel at 8 ohms; 100 watts rms per channel at
4 ohms.
• XPA 2001-70V: 200 watts rms for 70 volt speaker systems.
• XPA 2001-100V: 200 watts rms for 100 volt speaker systems.
Professional grade amplifier design —
• The XPA 1002 features less than 0.05% total harmonic distortion plus noise, and better
than 105 dB signal-to-noise ratio.
• The XPA 2001 features less than 0.1% total harmonic distortion plus noise, and better
than 100 dB signal to noise ratio.
ENERGY STAR® qualified amplifier — The XTRA Series of amplifiers are energy efficient
products that conserve energy and reduce operating costs.
Highly efficient Class D amplifier design — The XTRA Series of amplifiers generate
substantially less heat than conventional amplifier designs, making them ideal for installation
in equipment racks and lecterns with very limited ventilation. They consume 10 watts when
idle and less than 1 watt in standby mode.
Extron patented CDRS™ - Class D ripple suppression — A patented, exclusive
technology from Extron that eliminates the high frequency switching ripple and EMI
emissions found in typical Class D ampliers. CDRS enables Extron power ampliers to be
situated near wireless AV devices without RF interference.
