Rear panel connections include Neutrik Combo inputs, allowing balanced XLR or 1/4-inch connections, barrier strip inputs, XLR male outputs for daisy-chaining, plus touch-proof binding post, Speakon and Phoenix outputs. The Xs 1200 also employs extensive protection and diagnostics capabilities, including output current limiting, DC protection, circuit breaker, and special thermal protection.
Like all Crown amplifiers, Xs Series products are backed by the manufacturer's Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully Transferable Warranty.
