Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The t.amp E4-130 is a solid, no-frills workhorse amp for smaller bands, DJs, or anyone needing a versatile power solution. It’s a great value for the power on tap, but don't expect audiophile-grade clarity at maximum volume - it's built for reliable performance, not pristine sound. Perfect for bands needing to power multiple monitors or a main PA system on a tight budget.

Frequently Asked Questions
While not specified, expect some increase in distortion when pushing the amp close to its limits – typical for AB class amplifiers in this price range.
No, the E4-130 is designed for 230V operation; using a step-down transformer is required and not recommended without professional guidance.
The standby circuit likely reduces inrush current on power-up, but it doesn't appear to offer a 'soft start' with gradual power ramping.
