Pure 6L6 All-Tube Power in a Ultra-Compact 1U Rack Enclosure
The Synergy SYN-5050 Single Space Tube Power Amp is a high-performance 50W + 50W stereo (or 100W mono bridged) rackmount power amplifier engineered specifically to maximize the dynamic response and headroom of modular tube preamps, modelers, and floor processors. Co-designed by legendary amplifier designer Steven Fryette, the SYN-5050 delivers massive tube power, lightning-fast transient response, and pristine clarity without occupying valuable rack space.
Powered by four 6L6 power tubes and two 12AX7 driver tubes, the SYN-5050 features independent dual-channel controls with Presence and Density shaping per channel. The Presence control fine-tunes upper-midrange bite and high-end sizzle, while the Density control adjusts the speaker cabinet's low-end coupling, letting you dial in tight, punchy low-end response regardless of your speaker enclosure size or stage volume.
Built with automatic bias monitoring circuitry and channel-independent standby switches, the SYN-5050 provides maximum operational reliability for touring musicians, studio owners, and rack-rig enthusiasts. Whether powering Synergy preamp docks (SYN-1, SYN-2) or high-end digital modelers, the SYN-5050 adds genuine tube sag, warmth, and real-air projection to your sound.
Sanctuary Expert Note:
"Fitting a true 50-watt per side, 6L6-driven tube power amp into a 1U single rack space used to be impossible without thermal issues or tone compromises. Fryette and Synergy nailed this layout. The Density control on the SYN-5050 is magic—it allows you to make a 1x12 or 2x12 cab sound like a full 4x12 stack at any volume level."
