ART SLA1 Power Amplifier (2x100 Watts)

The SLA-1 Studio Linear Amplifier is a robust yet compact power amplifier designed for studio and even live applications. It has been designed and engineered to provide clean, quiet power and excellent sound with ultra-low noise and distortion.

The SLA-1 is rated at 100 watts RMS/channel @ 8 ohms (130 watts RMS/channel @ 4 ohms and 260 watts/bridged Mono @ 8 ohms), with hum and noise >100dB, and has an input impedance of 22k ohm unbalanced (44k ohm balanced). It features a toroidal transformer, XLR & 1/4 in. inputs, ground lift switch, fan cooled design, power, clip, signal and protect LEDs, 1-rack unit spacing and a frequency response of 10 Hz to 40 kHz within 1dB.

It also features an input sensitivity of 1V for rated power into 8 ohms, and silent SmartFan cooling and custom convection heat radiating fins. The SLA-1 is perfect for professional, project and home studios.

The SLA-1 is a powerful, compact amplifier, and its rugged, steel chassis is designed for years of durable and reliable use.

The SLA-1 features a three-year warranty.
