It is extreme - there's no way the amp could be used in a studio - or even home music area in my opinion as the fan noise is too loud. I knew this when I purchased it - I had read the reviews. Managed to get the amp for £70 delivered from desertcart and thought I'd install it and assess the unit myself. After first day, I agreed with the assessment of other buyer - the fan was too noisy and distracting for every day use, so I ordered the Noctua NF-A8 ULN. Like another reviewer, I fitted it with the sound reducing resistor. It was an easy job to open the unit and remove the existing fan - it plugs into a two pin socket on the main PCB board. Two wires only - red and black. I both of these wires at their half way point so that I could keep the same two pin PCB connector. To fit the Noctura, I added the low noise resistor cable, felt where the resistor was in the sleeve and snipped the cable AFTER the resistor. You'll find 3 cables inside the sleeve - yellow, black and black cable after the resistor. From the original two pin PCB connector, solder black to black of the Noctura cable; red to the black wire after the resistor; finally, ignore (tape back) the yellow cable. I used heat shrink sleeving over the solder joints to ensure a tidy and safe installation. I ensured the unit was not connected to the power before commencing the work and wore an earthing bracelet just in case there was any residual charge in capacitors. Unsure how QTX think this unit is sellable and fit for purpose with the factory fan installed. Factoring in my low purchase price and £20 for the new silent fin, I have a great amp now that is totally silent. Real crisp sound that sounds good over most frequencies. Review: Delighted with the amplifier - Delighted with the amplifier, performance is excellent, much better than the previous amplifier I was using, would highly recommend it. ## Features - 6.3mm jack or RCA inputs - SPK, 6.3mm jack or 4mm post outputs - Fan cooled - 19" rack-mountable (2U) - Perfect for DJs and performers ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01CNWQ0S8 | | Best Sellers Rank | 9,110 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 15 in PA Power-Amplifiers | | Connector | / | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (54) | | Date First Available | 7 Mar. 2016 | | Item Weight | 5.2 kg | | Item model number | 172.051UK | | Product Dimensions | 48.2 x 48.2 x 9 cm; 5.2 kg | | Scale Length | inches | | Size | Q Series | 240W | | Voltage | 230 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** QTX - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 48.2 x 48.2 x 9 centimetres - **Manufacturer:** qtx - **Voltage:** 230 Volts ## Images ![Q240 Power Amplifier | 240W, 172.051UK - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511y8VKojOL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Re qa1000: can you explain why the back of this amp says "200w+200w max power output @ 4ohms?" that doesnt align with the description** A: It means 200w max @ 4 ohms on each channel. 8 ohm speakers would be 100w max each channel. **Q: Hi have you got a amp that can handle 2 sony fronts 6ohm's 280watts rms and 2 subs 24 ohms each? thanks** A: They work better with a powered 12 channel mixer to pump out more bass on a bass expander fake effect. These amps are fine for homes but lack bass fine tune setting like pub Dj set up **Q: what is the output rms watts** A: Hello. Thanks for finding Meteor Music. Hope this information from the manufacturer helps.

I think only the QAxxxx series have XLR-Jack combo sockets (I have the QA400 - which definitely has them) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Swap the fan and this is a great amp *by J***G on 10 September 2021* Fully agree with with what others have written about the fan noise.

I got this version because it has XLR inputs which I wanted to interface to my mixing desk and that is worth the extra money over the non-XLR version. It sounds good to my ears. Internally it's fairly bog-standard (yes, I've already busted the warranty (if there is one) by opening it up for a poke around). There's quite a lot of room in the case and a standard linear power supply running off a 36 volt toroidal transformer. The stereo amplifier is a single PCB with 2SC5200 output transistors, mounted on a chunky fan cooled heatsink. Which brings us to the fan, which is incredibly noisy; the fan in mine is some untraceable far Eastern brand, standard PC fan style (80mm, 12V, 180 mA). So I swapped that for an Arctic F8 and solved the noise problem, but that's only an option if you're comfortable with electronics and opening up the case type of stuff. So I can't recommend the item as shipped without this caveat. It's fine of course if your amp is just going to sit in a rack in a rack room somewhere and then this wouldn't be an issue. Documentation by the way is minimal; you get a single sheet of paper with no specifications or description of the amp at all, just how to plug it in and the uselessly obvious "troubleshooting" of the "is it switched on?" variety. So I dithered over awarding 3 or 4 stars and went with 4. It's otherwise a good amp for the price. If this review appears below various models by the way, mine is the QA 400, which is 70W into 8 ohm and 200W into 4 ohm RMS. ## Frequently Bought Together - qtx | Q240 Power Amplifier | 240W, 172.051UK - The Glowhouse Long Lasting High Density Smoke Fog Fluid DJ & Party Effect Mist Haze Liquid for Machines 1.75L - QTX | Long Lasting Smoke/Fog Fluid for DJ & Party Effect | 1 Litres --- ## 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.sn/products/48832411-q240-power-amplifier-240w-172-051uk](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/48832411-q240-power-amplifier-240w-172-051uk) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
