the t.amp E-400

Jako DJ obsługujący mniejsze imprezy szukałem zestawu, który nie zrujnuje mojego budżetu, a jednocześnie nie zawiedzie mnie w połowie seta. Wybór padł na t.amp E-400 w parze z kolumnami the box PA 15 ECO MKII i muszę przyznać: to był strzał w dziesiątkę. Na imprezie nie ma miejsca na „fochy” sprzętu. E-400 to pancerna konstrukcja. Grałem na nim maratony po 10-12 godzin – wzmacniacz świetnie odprowadza ciepło, wentylatory trzymają temperaturę w ryzach, a dźwięk pozostaje stabilny od pierwszej do ostatniej minuty. Jeśli zaczynasz przygodę jako DJ lub potrzebujesz solidnego zaplecza, które przetrwa transport i intensywne użytkowanie, E-400 to najlepsza inwestycja. W tej cenie nie znajdziesz nic, co dawałoby taką pewność siebie za konsolą. Ten wzmacniacz to „wół roboczy”, który zarabia na siebie z nawiązką na każdym zleceniu

Installed along with a pair of Evid 4.2's and A&H ZED14 desk.
Nice unit. Has very rugged feel for its cost. Effective array of input and output options, though I used the conventional xlr in and speakon out format.

For this price, nice to see it comes with built in limiters etc, though in this particular application should not be necessary. Nice clean sound at low and high levels with no perceptible coloration. Also nice are the protection relays, seldom found in units at this price.

Among the features on this unit is the "standby switch off when no, or v.low level input. For this install, had to switch this feature off, which is easy to do with slide switch above mains in. Perhaps would be nice if the features switches did not use letters or initials but plain English or somewhere (plenty of room on the back panel) there was an interpretation of the code to save looking it up in the hand book!

On the whole Thomann great amp, but PLEASE supply UK with UK mains plugs as "technically" it is now against UK regulations to chop off a German fitting and replace with a 13A plug unless you are a qualified "sparky"

This is my first Thomann product, and I have to say it's a really great product. I use it for small parties in a medium sided room with a lounge area outside, and it fills up both areas effortlessly. Never disappointed.

The physical build quality is very good - it's very sturdy and it's made of good material. The sound quality is also impressive, especially when considering it's low price tag. It produces quite crisp sound while delivering plenty of bass.

The only issue I had is that it does not fully support mono mode. I would have used this to power one speaker (to hear both left and right channels from one speaker), however when connecting the speaker in bridged mode it only outputs sound from the source's left input channel. However that's a lack from my side as this is something that I should have researched about before, so it's not something that I can complain about. If you don't need this feature than I recommend it.

Very happy with the sound quality it delivers!
