What is the AmpRX Backline Power Station and what does it do?

The AmpRX Backline Power Station is a voltage attenuator specifically designed for tube amplifiers. It reduces incoming AC voltage to optimize your amp's performance, especially in venues with high or inconsistent power. This helps tube amps run cooler, extends tube life, and allows them to operate in their "sweet spot" for better tone without excessive volume.

Who is the Backline Power Station designed for?

It's ideal for guitarists, bassists, and studio engineers who use tube amplifiers. Whether you're playing live, recording, or practicing, it helps protect your valuable tube gear from damaging high voltage. It also ensures consistent, optimal tone by letting your amp perform at its best, regardless of the wall voltage.

How much power can the Backline Power Station handle, and how many devices can I connect?

The AmpRX Backline Power Station can handle up to 1200 watts at 120V AC (10 amps), which is suitable for most high-powered tube amplifiers and multiple pedals. It provides two grounded AC outlets, allowing you to power your amplifier and other essential gear safely and effectively from a single unit.

How does the Backline Power Station reduce voltage, and what are the available options?

This unit offers four selectable voltage-reduction modes, allowing you to choose the level that best suits your amplifier and the incoming power conditions. It also includes a bypass setting for A/B comparison. This precise control helps you dial in your amp's tone, allowing it to operate optimally without being overdriven by excessive voltage.

How do I set up the Backline Power Station for my specific power environment?

The Backline Power Station features multiple primary voltage input selections (120V, 122V, 124V, 126V). You should select the input voltage that most closely matches your wall outlet's voltage for the most accurate attenuation. This ensures your amplifier receives a consistent, optimized voltage, protecting your gear and enhancing its performance.
