Acom 1000 Amplifier Review

I have had my Acom 1000 HF+6 amplifier for three years now and I love it. I get a lot of compliments on my clean signal. I only wish I had bought one years ago.

My first big amplifier and boy what a great unit! It is quiet, easily produces 1KW PEP if needed and is just idling at 400W Australian Limit. The only small whinge about this amplifier is the warm up time. This however is typical of all valve amplifiers. Recently I also received the “Hot Switching” warning on the LED screen however I found the issue was simply a dodgy PTT cable and once replaced there were no further problems. Overall a wonderful amplifier and a pleasure to operate.

Nothing more to say other than it represents the best value 1kw amplifier available today. Very clean output, an easy 1kw on all bands and very strongly built. I have just replaced the output tube after 12 years of operation. Works like a dream.

By far the best amplifier I have owned in over 30 years of operating radio equipment. An easy 1kw output all day long, very efficient cooling and built like a tank. No wonder it is considered the best value 1kw amplifier on the market today.

The Acom 1000 is the most reliable 1kw plus amplifier available. Easy to tune, robust and very clean output. The only amplifier you will ever need.

I have had one for approx 5 years now, I use mine for all of my HF portable work. A very reliable Amp. I have made a few mistakes with it, flashes up a warning. Never had a problem with it. I run mine from a 2kw Honda Gennie.

A fantastic and reliable unit.

The reviews allover the internet testify as to how good these amplifiers are. Built rugged and made to last. Under normal operating conditions they should last for many years. Very well engineered.

The Acom 1000 is without doubt the best 1KW Linear amplifier on the market today. It is rugged, easy to tune and great value for money.
