Powersoft M50q - opinions?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi, I'm after some opinions about the Powersoft m50q. The brand is obviously well known for quality, reliability, ETC. The K-series is/was their flagship stuff. Whilst the M-series seems to be a cheaper option. Is it good?

I'm thinking about powering with the m50q a little MA Backline rig (4xF10 + 4xS12). At the moment I have QSC 2402 on tops and EV q1212 on lows. Would the Powersoft be an upgrade in terms of sound quality?

Cheers,
Tom

	i like them a lot - little amps with a lot of poke. Sound quality is as good as the K series to my ears, probably slightly smoother in the HF , not as good as the X series which is no surprise. If you are local to me ( luton, bedfordshire) then feel free to come and take a look / try on your system as we hold these in stock

	Also the K series has power factor correction & the M series does not.

	It’s a great little amp for an easy little rig. We run either BlacklineX8’s and X210’s, or sometimes XD12s and WS18X’s off ours - does the trick! Can’t beat it for a lightweight 1u ‘does the lot’ box (with the DSP) for the price.
