Who each model is for
Compex SP 8.0: for serious athletes
The Compex SP 8.0 is the top of the range wireless muscle stimulator, designed for athletes who train and compete on a regular basis. It has 4 wireless channels and 40 programs, the most in the range. It’s built to help optimise strength and endurance, help you recover faster, and help avoid injury and treat pain. If you train most days and want the most Compex has to offer, this is the one.
Compex SP 6.0 Wireless: wireless freedom, lower price
The Compex SP 6.0 gives you wireless modules (4 channels, 30 programs) at a lower price than the SP 8.0. It suits regular trainers who like moving freely during a session without cables getting in the way.
Compex SP 4.0 Wired: the value pick
The Compex SP 4.0 is a wired, 4-channel unit with 30 programs. If you mostly use it seated or lying down for recovery, wires aren’t a problem, and you save compared with the wireless models. It’s also available to rent (see below).
Compex SP 2.0: entry to the SP series
The Compex SP 2.0 is the most affordable way into the SP sport series: a wired, 4-channel unit with 20 programs. A good choice if you’re new to muscle stimulation and want to try Compex for training and recovery.
Compex Fit 1.0 and Fit 5.0: for fitness and everyday wellbeing
The Compex Fit 1.0 is a wired unit with 4 channels and 10 programs, and it’s our lowest-priced Compex stimulator. The Compex Fit 5.0 (the version we sell) is wireless with 2 channels and 30 programs across fitness, pain management, recovery/massage and rehabilitation.

FAQ
What’s the difference between the Compex SP 8.0 and SP 6.0?
Both are wireless with 4 channels. The SP 8.0 has 40 programs versus 30 on the SP 6.0, and is Compex’s top-of-the-range model for athletes who train and compete regularly, while the SP 6.0 costs less ($1,399 vs $1,849 on our site). If you want the most programs, choose the SP 8.0. If budget matters more, the SP 6.0 still gives you wireless freedom.
Is wired or wireless better?
Wireless is more convenient if you move during sessions or use it around training. Wired, like the SP 4.0, is great value if you mostly use it seated or lying down for recovery.
Which is the cheapest Compex?
The Compex Fit 1.0 at $319 is the most affordable model on our site. In the SP series, the SP 2.0 starts at $649.
