 SAMPA chart for Nahuatl - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As a result, SAMPA tables are valid only in the language they were created for, the tables of the various languages are not harmonised, and there are conflicts between languages.
IMPORTANT: SAMPA was created out of the need for a 7-bit plain-text representation of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), required to circumvent printing, editing, and emailing limitations on early computer systems.
X-SAMPA was created to solve this problem, at the price of the optimal simplicity and brevity achievable for a particular language.

 E-MELD School of Best Practice: Ega X-SAMPA Transcription Conventions
The SAMPA alphabet was developed in the late 1980s by John Wells, in consultation with a wide range of colleagues, to meet a need for a simple machine-readable encoding of phonetic transcriptions with symbols of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) for file interchange purposes.
In the meantime, SAMPA is widely used, and extensions of SAMPA have now been developed for many other languages.
In order to aid the development of such extensions, the extended code-set X-SAMPA was devised by John Wells, and encompasses the complete set of IPA conventions.

 Talk:thorn - Wiktionary
As for IPA and SAMPA yes they are supposed to be equivalent, X-SAMPA just does a better job because the original SAMPA was only designed with European languages in mind.
You do make a good argument with your sparring/spotting example and if I could find some US dictionaries which used the IPA in this way I'd be convinced.
SAMPA is a set of alphabets for standard phonemic descriptions of certain languages.

 SAMPA transcription
A practical disadvantage of IPA is that as yet there is no universally agreed (or easy to use) ASCII representation available.
SAMPA, which abbreviates Speech Assessment Methods Phonetic Alphabet, is one proposal to represent (subsets of) the IPA in standard ASCII characters.
The tables of pulmonic consonants and vowels below are based on this X-SAMPA, with the addition of the symbol

I think it's best if we use one of the systems consistantly across all pages.
Whatever is decided, It needs to be introduced to the students before they take the intermediate course as all the articles in there already use SAMPA.
We have a link to an IPA tutorial at the bottom of this page, but most of the articles are written using SAMPA.

Computer-coding the IPA: A proposed extension of SAMPA
The result is a SAMPA-inspired recasting of the IPA into 7-bit ASCII.
The Extended SAM Phonetic Alphabet (X-SAMPA) is a variant of SAMPA developed in 1995 by John C. Wells, professor of phonetics at the University of London.

 X-SAMPA - KutjaraWiki
X-SAMPA is a phonetic script used to represent speech, that uses only 7-bit ASCII characters, so that it can be typed in any computer keyboard.
It was developed in 1995 by John C. Wells, based on a previous code called SAMPA (Speech Assessment Methods Phonetic Alphabet), developed by a European group.
Each X-SAMPA character sequence has a direct correspondence with an IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) symbol.

 7 bit representation of the IPA
SAMPA seems more popular among professional linguists for reasons which elude me. And of course, in addition to these schemes you will see various home-grown schemes which may or may not be marked as such.
Here, though, are several commonly used ASCII-IPA systems: Kirshenbaum, Coutts-Barrett, Branner, Carrasquer, and SAMPA.
Kirshenbaum is popular among hobbyists because it tries to stay close to the physical representation of ASCII, or else have a decent mnemonic, for most things.

 ASCIIbet sucks Antimoon Forum
In practice, ASCII IPA schemes're often far more practical, especially when cannot choose what font one will be using, one is limited to 8-bit charsets such as latin-1, or one has no easy way of entering arbitrary Unicode characters.
I prefer using Sampa and X-sampa to do my phonemic and phonetic transcriptions.
If one wants a direct one to one mapping with IPA proper, one could use X-SAMPA, even though I find that for most purposes, plain old SAMPA does just fine overall.

 conlangs: IPA, SAMPA, X-SAMPA and Conlang-X-SAMPA
You're right on /x/, though in my experience we Americans tend to either pronounce it too far back or too far forward, and way more aspirated than necessary.
The radical for unvoiced sounds is _0 (zero); so the ones you listed would be r_0, l_0, et cetera.
And /x/ is the sound enjoyed by Russians, Germans,
