A beloved powerhouse
The t.amp E-1200 is one of Thomann's best-selling stereo power amplifiers, a success that is due in no small part to the performance and features it offers for such a budget-friendly price. It features a 19"/2U rack format and provides amplification across a frequency range of 20Hz to 20kHz while delivering 2x1,200W into four ohms, which allows it to provide sound for an audience up to 250 people depending on the location. The E-1200 features XLR inputs as well as outputs in both speaker twist and screw terminal formats, so the most commonly used connection options are covered. Safe operation is also ensured by an onboard limiter and additional protection circuits.

Reliable and user-friendly
Being a class H amplifier, the E-1200 from the t.amp delivers both a high level of efficiency and low levels of distortion, and it can operate as a power amplifier with a signal-dependent supply voltage. In stereo mode, the two channels operate independently of one another, while in parallel mode, the speakers are connected to both channels and receive the signal from channel A. Finally, bridged mode allows the input signal from channel A to be amplified at twice the power. The amplifier's safety features include DC, short-circuit, and over-temperature protection circuits, and it is also very user-friendly thanks to its LED indicators, which help the user to operate it safely: Each channel features a signal LED to indicate whether a signal is present, as well as a clipping LED to indicate that an overload is present (and the integrated limiter has been activated) or a short-circuit has occurred. Further LEDs in turn indicate whether the amplifier is in an unstable condition or is overheating, as well as providing information about the active operating mode.

For DJs, bands, organisers, and rental companies
A wide range of users will find the answer to their specific requirements in the t.amp E-1200. For example, it is suitable for event organisers looking for an affordable but high-performance power amplifier for use in a fixed installation. Rental companies in turn can add this reliable power amp to their portfolio at an affordable purchase price and thus provide a robust and easy-to-use rental amp. And both DJs and bands can use the E-1200 to make their home or rehearsal room setup stage-ready and suitable for bars, youth centers, and even small clubs. More generally, however, anyone who can do without a soft start function, DSP effects, an integrated crossover, or a ground lift switch and does not require two-ohm stability can definitely take a closer look at the t.amp E-1200.

About the t.amp
the t.amp is one of the many in-house brands belonging to Musikhaus Thomann, and since 1998 has offered power amplifiers, complete passive PA sets, keyboard amplifiers, and connection systems. The brand’s entire product range delivers an impressive combination of quality and reliability at attractive prices, and users can find a convincing and affordable solution for every application: From youth clubs and sports halls through to congress centres and much more.
For small clubs and on the road
Whether it's for a live gig or a mini tour, the t.amp E-1200 is a reliable component for a band's PA. For large parties and small gigs, solo entertainers and DJs can also use this amplifier as a separate power amp for one or two subwoofers. For town festivals, two E-1200s can be combined to provide sufficient outdoor sound, while small clubs and large bars can also use the amp in their fixed installations even when the room has poor heat dissipation, thanks to its two temperature-controlled fans which provide adequate cooling. Those who want to transport the amplifier from place to place will appreciate both its compact height of 2U and its relatively low weight of 15.3kg.
