The new S1500 power amplifier from Samson is designed for maximum reliability and efficient performance in a vari- ety of live sound reinforcement situations, commercial installations and for powering PA systems.

Delivering 750 watts per side into four ohms and 1500 watts into eight ohms in bridged mono mode, the three- space rackmount amp features two speed-controlled fans that react to changes in temperature for maximum efficien- cy. A bipolar design enables more stable operation while ensuring high-quality audio performance. The front panel includes two precise 41-detent input level controls with 3- segment LED, output metering and dual protection LEDs linked to special relay-controlled LEDs to avoid speaker damage.

A number of practical features such as XLR inputs and locking TRS inputs and parallel outputs for "daisy-chain- ing" several amps together complete this rugged performer.
