Manufacturer's Description for Alesis RA300 Power Amp

Three Powerful New Additions to Alesis' Already Popular RA Series
With their rugged construction, striking good looks - among the first examples of Alesis' groundbreaking new approach to industrial design - and a long list of features, the new RA series will quickly find a home in project and commercial recording studios, and broadcast and post-production control rooms around the world.

Popular Prices, Powerful Performance
Even with the increasing use of powered speakers, many popular speakers and headphones still require external amplification. These new amps are designed to provide more power and better performance at a lower overall cost per watt than even the RA100 - as well as any other competing models. As a result, they can more closely match the power needs of virtually any passive speaker or studio monitor, offering a significantly better fit for an exceptionally wide range of budgets, applications, and customers. And providing a crisp, clean signal for outstanding performance and extended speaker life.

Cool, Quiet Operation
Designed for studio use, each RA Series amp incorporates advanced convection cooling for heat dissipation. The result is long, stable operation unaffected by heat-related complications, without the added distraction and annoyance of fan cooling. And eliminating the danger of losing hard-to-hear details due to noisy amp performance.

The New Leaders in Affordable Studio Amplification
Three new RA series amps - RA150, RA300, and RA500 - providing a bold and powerful answer to the question, "What's next from Alesis" Combined with our popular RA100, they offer a wide range of high-quality, popularly priced solutions for virtually any - and every - situation. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Alesis products.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. Alesis RA300 Power Amp Customer Review
Sound: The sound is very good - clear and punchy through my tannoy pbm 6.5's Feature: I like that you can bridge it - useful if you use the amp for different configurations. Also, the fact that it has balanced and unbalanced ins as well as banana speaker terminals Ease of Use: Plug it in, turn it on, turn it up. Quality: Quality is pretty good - I like that it's convection cooled and has no fan to wear out hear parts grinding. Fans that wear out are pretty irritating when you're trying to get something recorded and sounding just right. Value: Great value - I'm sure you could spend more and get a better amp. For th e money it is really good though. Manufacturer Support: Haven't really dealt with them, but they're fairly close to where I live - only 1 county away. The Wow Factor: The lights look pretty cool in my amp rack. The lights move when you've got signal pumping through it - also cool. Overall: I'm sure I'll be happy with this for awhile. I got rid of a 16 year old integrated amp I had been using for my home studio so I could purchase this and it was well worth it.
Style of Music: Laidback Electronic and synth stuff, some obnoxious guitar music also

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Consider trying something else for long term use!"
Sound: Quiet and neutral. Feature: Uncluttered front and back panel with passive cooling were features that sold this unit. Ease of Use: Plug & play, it's that easy. Quality: Ours lasted two years, then Ch. 1 died. Opening the top cover revealed that the chassis holes don't align well. No schematic is supplied with the unit. Value: Not worth the price for a two year unit. It's largely a disposable amplifier. Manufacturer Support: Unit lasted through the warranty period, then failed the second year (one year past the warranty). The company was friendly enough, but shipping a $280 unit across the country for a repair isn't worth it. The Wow Factor: It was practical while it worked. Overall: I expect to replace this unit soon. Fortunately, we only need one of it's channels, so we can limp along for now. We bought it because it was simple, and seemed heavy duty, as well as featuring passive cooling.
Style of Music: I work in a support role
