Hi. Before I waste to much time searching, do any rackmount
power amp manufacturers make amps with HUSH or ISP noise
reduction suppressor technology or features?

Makes sense to me, and would save rack space.
Front panel controls for the noise suppression levels management
BEFORE the signal goes on to the amplifier. What do you think?

Initial searching produces mostly rackmount NS results,
not power amps. Am I wasting my time, or, who makes one?

Thanks ahead of time.
 
ISP has a power amp that's pretty cool. I don't know if it includes the decimator tech built in or not.
 
Found one amp head with noise reduction. Gotta be more out there.

"The ISP Theta Amp Head offers a unique approach to the guitar amplifier. The Theta also packs a huge punch; the internal D-CAT power amplifier delivers more than 300 watts RMS into a 4-ohm load and 150 watts into an 8-ohm load. You want gain? The Theta amplifier head has greater than 140dB of gain and you can control and make it useable because of the included dual independent full-featured Decimator Noise Reduction systems."
 
peavey valve king, peavey jsx, have diode coring for noise. theres an engl or two with gates i think.

Thanks. Good to know. When I'm ready, I'll demo
some amps with noise reduction features.
 
There are a few heads with built in noise gates but I can't think of any power amps offhand
 
Doesn't Marshall have a couple out now, maybe the Kerry King?
 
After investigating, som Engls and some Peavey's use a simple noise gate.
ISP claims: "The ISP Theta Amp Head offers a unique approach to the guitar amplifier.

There are probably others. Need to eliminate the noise before
hitting the amplifier, right? Why not have NS in the same rack
as the power supply, and save space. Also, the NS should have
a disable swith. Simple as that.
