Great amplifier and easy to tune Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
There is really nothing negative about this amplifier. If you are in the market for a manual tune kilowatt amplifier, the ACOM 2100 should be at the top of your list. If you buy this amp you will not regret it.give 2400W ;)

Best amp around Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
I have had many amps but only two Acom's. My last one was a Acom 1500 which was great, quiet and power output was good for 1450w at full input. I now have a Acom 2100 (after a few solid state amps) and I have to say, Acom did it again. FANTASTIC amplifier and hands down one of the best amp available. With a full drive I see over 2,000w output (into a dummy load) so doing legal limit is no problem at all... If you're looking for a great amp out of the gate, don't screw around, go get yourself a Acom 2100 and be done with it. Solid performer and top shelf build quality and engineering.

Well Built Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I have an ACOM 1000 for the last 2 years and use it for 2 hours a day all week. It works as it did when I bought it. I recently bought the 2100 from DXE. It comes in 2 boxes so you have to open it up to install the XFMR. Inside you can see the quality--like looking inside an ALPHA which isn't unusual since they made the ALPHA 91B a few years back. I wanted a quality legal limit amp and this definitely is it. Also it uses a currently manufactured tube.

An Outstanding Performer Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
The ACOM 2100 is fantastic. It tunes easily. It is built like a tank - very solid. When properly tuned, it is capable of 1500 Watts, plus.

GREAT AMPLIFIER Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I have had the amplifier for one month. The ACOM 2100 arrived from Sofia in two hard boxes in perfect conditions. The transformer installation was easy and is well explained in the manual. I did it myself. The initials settings were confused because the explanations on the manual are not clear. ( LINE switch must be ON ).
It is very robust, with good components, professional manufacturing, very quiet and nice design. ( Others amps look pretty homebrewed with a lot of visible screws and ugly front panel ).
The operation is intuitive and tuning is simple and fast with the help of the TRI system.
When SWR is less than 3:1, no tuner is needed.
Their customer service in Bulgaria ( Val, LZ1VB ) is excellent and opportune.
2000 watts in SSB, 1500 in RTTY, CW and digital modes, no time limit. The model 2100 is an up grade of model 1500 with a bigger and heavier transformer.
I have been a Ham since 1.959, and owned many amplifiers. This one is by far the best.
It does everything as advertised. I recommend it without doubt.

Quiet and Powerfull Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
For a long time I gazed at the low noise HF amplifier. First I wanted to try Ameritron with glass vacuum tubes, but Acom design won me over.

It is quiet, with the protections for all faults. It is heavy duty - 1500W carrier modes.
