The amp's convenient freestanding or rack-mountable configurations make it an ideal partner for high-performance subwoofer speaker systems. Based on a state-of-the-art Class-G circuit topology the SA1000 combines the proven high power, high fidelity characteristics of a Class-AB amplifier with a patented tracking down converter power supply to achieve an operating efficiency up to 86%. You get the efficiency of a Class-D amplifier without compromising audio quality and reliability. The Class-AB output stage provides the clean and low-distortion sound that audiophiles demand, without any of the instability problems that plague other high-efficiency amplifier designs. The Dayton Audio SA1000 is a freestanding, high-power subwoofer amplifier designed for the DIYer, installer, and systems integrator. This unique monaural audio device delivers the raw power of a pro-sound amp, but with the features and flexibility of a dedicated subwoofer amplifier. It can be configured for stacking with other audio components, and includes removable ears for mounting in standard audio racks (2RU). The SA1000's patented tracking down-converter power supply ensures headroom for instantaneous power needs and the amp stays cool, thanks to its high-efficiency design. Key Specs Power Handling (8Ω): 497 Watts Power Handling (4Ω): 950 Watts Signal-to-Noise Ratio: 98dB A-Weighted Inputs: Stereo RCA, LFE Outputs: Stereo Speaker Terminals, Stereo RCA (High Pass Output) Features: Remote On, Subsonic Filter, Bass Boost Class-G Innovation SA1000 subwoofer amplifier uses a patented Class-G topology that continuously tracks the input signal to modulate, or control, the voltage available to the output stage. This "tracking" capability delivers the exact amount of power based on demand instead of constantly keeping it in reserve, so the output stage only draws the amount of power that is required at any given time. Less energy is wasted as heat, and more power is available for the subwoofer driver. In addition, advanced soft clip circuitry provides cleaner transient peaks while protecting your driver from over-excursion. With its enhanced thermal management, the SPA1000 is an upgrade over previous models—making it a nearly bulletproof amplifier choice for today's demanding HT audio and music playback applications. Feature Packed The amp's switchable subsonic filter removes subsonic information from the signal, which tightens the low end response of some subwoofer systems. A switchable bass boost enhances LF performance while leaving the parametric EQ function available to address room modes, like cutting an excessively loud room resonance. The high-pass outputs provide a user the option to feed the signal back into their other audio components or a distributed audio system. Manual, automatic on/off or triggered 12V input modes allow easy integration into automated systems. The stealthy pop-out knobs on the front panel make adjustments easy, while minimizing the risk of accidental disturbance. The SA1000's subdued brushed black aluminum faceplate allows the amp to blend cosmetically with any type of audio gear. Accommodates RCA line-level inputs, includes insulated binding posts for the speaker outputs, and accepts a 12V trigger via a 3.5 mm mini-jack.

And what comes in the package?** A: The two speaker outputs are actually just one wired in parallel, add the two impedances together and divide your answer by 4. Hooking up 2x2ohm to each will result in a 1 ohm load. This will destroy the amp pretty fast. Here are some possible combinations that you can use with this amp. 1x4ohm = 4ohm load 2x8ohm = 4ohm load 1x4ohm, 1x8ohm = 6ohm load 1x8ohm =8ohm load 2x16ohm = 8ohm load You can wire the subwoofers in series to get a total of 4 ohms and use a single output on the amp. **Q: Does thus have a lowpass and highpass filter? Woukd it work well to power 4 clark synthesis t209 shakers** A: Yes it has low & high pass filters. This amp has more than enough power for any subwoofer. I'm very pleased with this purchase **Q: Anyone have recommended settings for a single buttkicker lfe (under floor mount)? i'm migrating from a 2 bk-lfe-under-couch setup with the old bk amp.** A: I cross mine at 50Hz on the Dayton Audio amp at about 70% gain. **Q: Hey so i have 3 klipsch CA-800-T looking to see whats a good amp to run these bad boys** A: Not this one. Call parts express. They have many options and knowledgeable staff. They sell most things on Amazon, too. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by J***. on January 20, 2016* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by V***E on December 9, 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by D***T on October 9, 2020* ## Frequently Bought Together - Dayton Audio SA1000 Subwoofer Amplifier Rack Mountable - ButtKicker BK-LFE Low Frequency Effects System - ButtKicker BK-CMAK Couch/Chair Mounting Accessory Kit --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/6032590-dayton-audio-sa1000-subwoofer-amplifier-1000-watt-class-ab-power](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/6032590-dayton-audio-sa1000-subwoofer-amplifier-1000-watt-class-ab-power) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
