SZ Series Features
POWER
The Samson SZ Series power amplifiers have been developed using the latest technology in amplifier design.  Here 
are some of their main features:
•  Each SZ Series amplifier delivers reliable, clean power operation at 70/100 volts and 4 Ohms, with their 
rated power output of 120 watts for the SZ1120, 240 watts for the SZ1240 and 360 watts for the SZ1360.
•  Built-in 70/100 volt output transformers with flat frequency response from 70Hz to 18kHz provide 
constant voltage for distributed speaker systems.
•  Rear panel level control allows precision adjustments from -12 to 0dB.
•  Clean, crisp sound - Impressive audio specifications such as 0.04% THD, dynamic range of 105 dB, 
crosstalk of 80 dB, and frequency response of 70Hz to 18kHz guarantee ultra-clean sound quality.
•  LED signal indicators continuously display power output levels and allow you to correct for overloading 
(clipping) conditions.
•  Forced air cooling via internal fan provides reliable performance without thermal and overheating 
problems.
•  Protection circuitry (with dedicated LEDs) that guards against overheating or faulty wiring conditions.
•  Input connection is made using a standard male XLR connector to accommodate balanced signal 
sources.
•  Output connections are made using Euroblock connectors which accept 12 gauge wire.
•  The SZ Series can be mounted in any standard 19" rack (taking just two rack spaces), making it easy to 
integrate into any fixed or traveling PA rig.
•  The amplifiers are enclosed in a ruggedly constructed (all-steel chassis with a sleek, black finish), 
standard 2-space 19-inch rack mount unit.
•  Extended three-year warranty.
