Technical Info

WARNING: Bridge mode is to be used only when the SX Series is connected to an 8 or 16 ohm speaker load. Use of Bridge mode with speaker loads of less than 8 ohms can result in severe damage to the unit due to excessive heat and current limiting and will void your warranty!

All Samson SX Series amps are designed to operate on 15 amp circuits and do not require special plugs or wiring. It is advisable to put each amp on a separate circuit to avoid popping a standard 15-20 amp breaker.

"Great Amp for the Price"
Feature:
The protection circuit is such a great feature. I've seen amps much more expensive (and powerful) that lacked this essential feature. The Speakon connectors are also great additions.

Quality:
I bought a B-stock amp and I only noticed minor scrapes on the top, nothing that wouldn't happen anyway. It works like a charm, very heavy, and well made. The handles on the front are great since I don't have a rack and I bring it with me from gig to gig.

Value:
Great amp for the price. Perfect to drive a PA system in a small to medium venue.

Desirability:
It's got a clean simple front. The filters for the fan are easy to clean, and look pretty good too.

Sound:
The sound produced by this amp is great. I get very crisp high ends and deep strong bass. I've used it for DJing and for a PA system with 2 mics and keyboards. Input always comes from a Yamaha mixer, and output goes to two Electro Voice cabs.

Ease of Use:
Just plug it in and go. Choseing between parallel, stereo or mono is really easy.

Support:
I haven't had to call them with any problems however the manual is so well written. It's friendly, and simplifies things for anyone to understand.

Overall:
I love this amp, and have no complaints. I might expand my system and pick up a second one of these to drive the monitors.

"Great amp."
Feature:
Turn on, crank to max. Done.

Quality:
Good stuff. Knobs could be better.

Value:
Worth the money. Had trouble with Crowns.

Sound:
I have an SX1200 and an SX1800. They are very clean. I run them down to 2 ohms with no problem whatsoever. No overheating, no clipping, no tripping. We use a bunch of Bose 802's, not an issue.

Ease of Use:
Ditto.

Support:
NA

Overall:
I expect to use them til they die, and then buy more. Actually I need another 1800.
