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 amplifiers. CDRS enables Extron power amplifiers to be
situated near wireless AV devices without RF interference.
Convection cooled — The XTRA Series of amplifiers are convection cooled without the
need for fans, ensuring quiet, reliable operation.
Ultra low inrush current — no need for power sequencing — Allows many XTRA
series amplifiers to be powered on simultaneously without overloading power circuits.
This eliminates the need for power sequencing.
Flexible Conduit Adapter Kit — Suitable for use in other environmental air space in
accordance with section 300.22, (C) of the National Electrical Code only when used with
optional Flexible Conduit Adapter Kit.
Auto-standby with fast power-up — The amplifiers automatically enter into a standby
mode after 25 minutes of inactivity, + or - 5 minutes, dramatically reducing power
consumption. They quickly return to full power status upon signal detection.
Rear panel attenuation (level) controls — Provide attenuation of input signals for
setting proper audio system gain staging as well as two-zone applications. They are
located on the rear panel to prevent unauthorized or accidental tampering of the level
adjustments.
Multiple protection circuits — Activates during excessive clipping, output shorts,
thermal overload, or DC faults to prevent damage to the amplifier and speakers.
Remote standby port — Enables the amplifiers to be remotely powered down when not
in use, reducing operating cost.
Remote volume and mute control port — Allows the XPA 1002 series and the XPA
2001 series to be remotely controlled using the optional Extron VCM100 Series volume
and mute or VC50 volume controllers.
Bridgeable outputs — The power output of the XPA 1002 and XPA 1002 Plus can be
effectively doubled by bridging the output. A mono source is wired to both the left and
right input while the output is wired for bridged operation. Bridging allows power to be
output at 200 watts into 8 ohms. The minimum load impedance when bridging is 8 ohms
(see the wiring instructions on page 19).
Front and rear-mounted signal and protection indication LEDs — Provide
convenient indication of amplifier operation from both sides of an equipment rack.
Internal international power supply — The 100-240 VAC, 50-60Hz universal power
supply provides worldwide power compatibility.
