Looking for recommendations on a replacement for a failing Samson S-Zone. Will have to be a similar form factor as the S-Zone ie physical buttons.
Thanks. BJ

I'm late to this one since it seems like you had a good solution - but would this have worked?

Depends on the application. I think the Samson was chosen in this case for drop in replacement.

When I did an install with a Samson the A&H wasn't out yet and didn't have quite the same features so I used a Samson. IIRC something to do with how the paging dimming worked on the Samson.

Indeed, the problem was the power supply. Having it repaired so I’ll have an in stock backup.

Well, just lost another one. Got a call to see if I could add some bass to the installed system. lol. Only thing outputting was about 500hz and up and very low level. Narrowed down to the S Zone. Popped in the in stock replacement and viola, full output again.
The unit lives in the amp rack and is never serviced. I think we’ll just keep repairing and keeping a replacement on hand. Maybe a fan in the rack as heat is probably contributing to the failures.
