XM for Business, the recently spruced up B2B arm of XM's satellite radio business, has partnered with Crown Audio to supply thousands of professional dealers nationwide with integrated amplifiers featuring built-in XM tuners.Crown Audio, a division of Harman International, is one of the largest manufacturers of power amplifiers and components for professional audio markets.
Crown's 140 MAx and 180 MAx (pictured above) are the first integrated tuner-mixer-amplifiers designed for commercial use. The integrated components are the centerpiece of the 140 and 180 MAx PACKs: complete business sound systems with Crown and JBL components.
The 140 MAx features a 40W amp with two JBL Control 1S 2-way 8-ohm speakers, while the 180 MAx sports a powerful 80W Crown mixer/amplifier and 4 JBL Professional Control 1ST two-way speakers for superior sound quality. Both systems include music-on-hold outputs, which easily connects to most business phone systems.
