The t.amp TA 1400 pro audio amplifier ampdyno continuous & burst output power test review & overview

In this video i present an output power test of a 20 year old pro audio amp which was a nice budget amplifier. The amplifier is still available with a different model name: " T.amp TA 1400 MK X ".
In this dyno video i also show the clipping behavior of the amp with a scope!
The dyno features continuous power tests with 1kHz and 50Hz into 8 and 4 Ohm resistive loads and also dynamic burst tests with 1kHz and 50Hz which represents a simulated crest factor and is more like " music power ".
The amp was famous for its low price and high output power, especially for DJs or bands.
In the early 2000s this model range made high power sound reinforcement affordable.
I guess these t.amps were the most discussed amplifiers in european message boards because it was just unbelieveable that you really get an amp in this power range for under 300€ at this time.
I bought the bigger brother in 2002 and was also really surprised. It was the TA 2400 which delivered around 2x1200 Watts of 1kHz continuous power into 4 Ohms per channel! If i remember correct, i paid 298€ back then - what a bargain!
Even today the updated models are still available and the price of the TA 2400 is under 400€.
It is clear that you can not compare these amplifiers with more expensive amps which can easily handle 2 Ohm loads.
