A Phonic Transformer???Confused



On a brighter note, I picked up a used Crown XS 900 for £91.00 on eBay. Took the time to give it a thorugh bench test in terms of output voltage yesterday and recieved the following numbers:


Rated Power: 900 watts per channel @ 1 kHz, under a 4 ohm load


Measured Results before Clipping Takes Place

  20.707 kHz, 72.1 volts, 4 ohm load: 1299.60 watts 
 
  14.991 kHz, 64.0 volts, 4 ohm load: 1024.00 watts

  10.004 kHz, 64.0 volts, 4 ohm load: 1024.00 watts

    5.003 kHz, 64.0 volts, 4 ohm load: 1024.00 watts
  
    2.083 kHz, 64.0 volts, 4 ohm load: 1024.00 watts

  999.282 Hz, 64.0 volts, 4 ohm load: 1024.00 watts

  500.995 Hz, 64.0 volts, 4 ohm load: 1024.00 watts

  200.939 Hz, 64.0 volts, 4 ohm load: 1024.00 watts

  100.882 Hz, 62.9 volts, 4 ohm load:   989.10 watts

    50.221 Hz, 62.5 volts, 4 ohm load:   976.56 watts

    39.903 Hz, 62.0 volts, 4 ohm load:   961.00 watts

    30.021 Hz, 62.9 volts, 4 ohm load:   989.10 watts

    20.746 Hz, 62.2 volts, 4 ohm load:   967.21 watts

      9.999 Hz, 62.2 volts, 4 ohm load:   967.21 watts

      4.939 Hz, 60.0 volts, 4 ohm load:  900.00 watts
     (Amplifier goes into DC Protect beyond 60 volts)


Unfortunately, I did not have Allan Wrench small enough to remove the top cover completely so, I had to use my phone to see what was inside.



Best Regards,

Trying to compete with the Thomann, Berry world, something has to give.
 Why buy new had these for £179 quid at one stage

PS. Never had anything Phonic go wrong personally, not even an MRT60.

It makes one wonder why would someone invest in the XLS offering a Phonic Transformer and not just buy a Phonic Amplifier with equal amount of output power at a lower price point?

To know is the greatest. Do You ask sellers to open units that you're interested
 In?

I don't buy anything used that I have not done my research on. I will take the chance if the price of the item so low I can afford the loss for, I can always use it for parts. There is just so much information on the Internet today one should not buy anything used without conducting their own research.

Best Regards,

Like some Peavey/Crest amps. The Crest badge will cost you more than the equivalent Peavey.
