Chicago Music Exchange: The First U.S. Retailer for Sunn Amplifiers!
The wait is over. Sunn Amplifiers are back—and Chicago Music Exchange is proud to be one of the first U.S. retailers bringing this legendary sound to a new generation.
A Legacy of Power & Innovation
Since the 1960s, Sunn has been synonymous with massive tone, unmatched power, and genre-defining sound. From Jimi Hendrix to The Melvins, Queen to Earth, Sunn Amplifiers have shaped some of the most iconic recordings and live performances in history. Known for their earthshaking bass response, detailed harmonic clarity, and unmistakable presence, Sunn gear has been a must-have for players pushing sonic boundaries.
Now, after years of anticipation, Sunn is back—reviving the classic amplifiers that built its legacy while introducing modern refinements that stay true to the brand’s renowned craftsmanship, power, and reliability.
The Return of a Legend
Reborn with the same commitment to innovation and uncompromising tone, the new era of Sunn is here. Whether you’re looking for the thunderous Sunn bass rigs, the dynamic range of their guitar amplifiers, or the unmistakable grit that defined heavy music, CME is the only retailer in the U.S. to get them for now!
Expect nothing less than Sunn’s legendary sonic power—engineered for today’s players while preserving everything that made these amps a favorite among pioneering musicians, producers, and tone chasers.
As one of the first U.S. retailers, Chicago Music Exchange is honored to bring Sunn Amplifiers back into the hands of musicians who demand depth, character, and unmistakable presence in their tone.
