Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (28 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great budget minded PA power amp!!"
Sound: This amp was used to drive (2) dual 15" w/horn speakers and did an excellent job. Great volume and punch. Very good value for the money Feature: It's a power amp....What do you need besides a plug-n-play unit? Signal and clip indicators are easily visible and work well. Easy to use bridge/stereo/parallel switch. Speakon and 5-way binding post outs. XLR and 1/4 TRS ins. Ease of Use: As I said, plug-n-play. Your up and running in a few short minutes. Quality: Initial quality seems very good. We'll see how it stands up to regular club playing. Value: The select b-stock unit from Zzounds was absolutely immaculate. A very fair power/quality/price combination. Manufacturer Support: Haven't had to use. The Wow Factor: How "sexy" can a power amp be? It does its job and that's sexy enough for me. Overall: I expect this unit is a good overall investment given the price point, power and features. I expect to be satisfied with it for a while.

Thank you. Your vote has been counted. Could you briefly tell us why the review was or was not helpful?

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful. "It's OK"
Sound: Great sound. It has a lot of power. May be under rated as it really gives two 500 watt SVS CS plus subwoofers a work out. Use it's own 20 amp breaker if using 110 volts as it really can suck up the power when loaded. You can switch to 220 volts if needed. Feature: I really wished it had a VU meter of some sort as with the high power output it is easy to over do it. With a VU meter you could monitor the output before over loading something. It has clip Leds that help some but for the price of the amplifier a few more cents for a VU indicator would be worth it. I guess I am one of those people that likes to know what is going on with the power output. Quality: The unit seems to be built like a tank with a lot of air flow through the unit. The Inlet filters are a real plus. The connections seem to be well made. But the control panel is a bummer. Value: So far the sound quality has been very good. Takes a likin and and keeps on ticken. Manufacturer Support: Don't know as so far so good. The Wow Factor: Well it is a heavy unit so I would say there is some "meat" inside that doing it's job. The pilot light looks cool, but see problem above. I like the handles. Overall: I might buy another one if it quit. But may hold out for a Crown dont know. It came with the speakers or I would have used a Crown or QSC. I like the sound. I don't like the controls.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!
