he LPS Series of power amplifi ers from 
Crown

®

 represents a new era in afford-

able, quality power amplifi cation. All three 

models in the series are powerful, rugged and 
reliable. They are suited for applications such as 
churches, concert tours, stages, disco, pubs, or 
any place that requires amplifi er installation. 

The three models in the series are the LPS-
800, LPS-1500 and LPS-2500. They are identi-
cal except for output power.

Features include XLR inputs, Speakon

®

 and 

binding post outputs, stereo/parallel/bridge-
mono mode, power/fault/signal presence/clip 
indicators, forced-air cooling; and protection 
against shorts, no-load, on/off thumps and 
radio-frequency interference. Every LPS Series 
amplifi er is backed by a one-year limited war-
ranty.

With over six decades of experience designing 
and building rock-solid products, Crown is the 
standard in amplifi er technology. So check out 
the affordable Crown LPS Series. They are a 
powerful argument for quality and value!
