Detail 01
800W per channel at 4 ohms, 475W at 8
Roughly 60 percent more power than the 1002 at the same impedance. About 2 dB more output, not double the volume.

Independent shopping perspective
Two-channel 800W-per-side amp with the same DSP as the smaller XTi models. For rigs where 500W per channel runs out of headroom.

Strong match

What matters in use
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 01
Roughly 60 percent more power than the 1002 at the same impedance. About 2 dB more output, not double the volume.
Detail 02
Both channels combined into one output for a single large sub. You lose the second channel doing this.
Detail 03
Tight grip on woofer cone motion, so low end stays defined rather than loose on long speaker runs.
Detail 04
Replaces an outboard processor. Set slopes, driver protection, and up to 50 mS of alignment inside the amp.
Detail 05
Store per-venue or per-cabinet setups and recall them instead of retuning at every load-in.
Detail 06
Near the limit of a shared 15A circuit once other gear is on it. Give it its own line where possible.
Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
800W versus 500W per channel at 4 ohms, which is about 2 dB. Useful headroom, but not a dramatic jump in perceived loudness.
Yes. Bridge mono gives 2000W at 4 ohms or 1600W at 8 ohms, using both channels to drive a single load.
Yes, 1000W per channel at 2 ohms in stereo. Check your cabinet wiring before connecting a load that low.
It is 19 by 3.5 by 12.25 inches, so two rack spaces and shallow depth. Weight is 18.5 lb.
