SDM 2550 vs 2550X

Post by native34 » Fri Jan 31, 2020 10:08 am

I have a couple of questions.

What are the differences between the 2550 and the 2550X in the SDM Layouts besides the extra pot?

Why would/should i choose the 2550X over the 2550 layout?

Are these models different from the 2553?

Can you post a link to the layout? I have lost my bookmark for his site.

Below is a link to the SDM Files for his amp layouts.

2555 was the 100 Watt
2550 was the 50 Watt
2553 (I think) was a small box version of the 50 Watt.

The pre-amps should be nearly identical. They're a great amp. I built a 2555 using SDM layout and it's fantastic.

The only real decision you have to make is do you want a 50W or 100W
