The PA-50 and -100 seem to be the ones to have when it comes to compact power amplifiers for rack, or perhaps a powered speaker enclosure. Is there anything to compare with them or are they two of a kind? |

I prefer the higher octane PA-200, one in each speaker cab.
Just bought two of them on ebay for under $150 each.

The PA-200's also have knobs for the level controls, and 1/4" inputs and outputs. The PA-100's have slots in the controls to adjust with a screwdriver. _________________ Darvin Willhoite

I have a quick question. I have a PA-200. Would it run cool enough if I mounted it in the back of a closed back speaker cabinet? Thanks for any advice. |

Robert, it would probably depend on how hard you pushed it. If it got too hot it would just shut down until it cooled off, which would not be a good situation playing live. If the cabinet was ported it would help. Try it and see what happens. _________________ Darvin Willhoite

Darvin, Thanks for reply. That answers my question. I need to put the power amp in an open back cabinet or in a rack. |
