Ashly FET-500 _Power amplifiers

1978

Made in Rochester, New York, USA 

Legendary American MOSFET power amplifier built during the golden age of pro audio.

Originally designed for demanding industrial and touring applications, the FET-500 quickly became a reference amplifier in studios, discotheques and commercial sound systems thanks to its incredible reliability and musicality.

The FET-500 delivers a refined hi-fi presentation. Fast transient response, deep controlled bass and smooth analog highs with that unmistakable MOSFET warmth and texture.

A true bridge between professional and audiophile worlds:

equally impressive in a listening room, listening bar or vintage club setup.

Massive transformers.

Oversized heat sinks.

Pure old-school American engineering.

Industrial look with serious vintage pro-audio charisma 💎
