Crown’s Three-Year, No-Fault, Full Warranty
Crown offers a Three-Year, No-Fault, Full Warranty for every new Crown amplifi er product—an
unsurpassed industry standard. With this unprecedented No-Fault protection, your new Crown ampli-
fi er product is warranted to meet or exceed original specifi cations for the fi rst three years of ownership.
During this time, if your unit fails, or does not perform to original specifi cations, it will be repaired or
replaced at our expense. About the only things not covered by this warranty are those losses normally
covered by insurance and those caused by intentional abuse. And the coverage is transferable, should
you sell your unit.

Linkwitz-Riley type crossover with the

120 Hz. High-frequency (HF) signals are routed to
the internal amplifer channels, and low-frequency
(LF) signals are summed and routed the mono
output connector. Truly a professional crossover,
the SST-SX uses hard-wired precision compo-
nents that stay at the frequencies you have
selected for consistent bandwidth control.

Specifi cations
Note: Specifi cations describe typical results using the
SST-SX crossover module installed in a Crown SST-
compatible amplifi er. All measurements are in Stereo
mode with 8-ohm loads and an input sensitivity of
26-dB gain at 1-kHz rated power unless otherwise
specifi ed. Specifi cations for units supplied outside
the U.S.A. may vary slightly at different AC voltages
and frequencies.
