  Kansaï's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " The heavy"

  Characteristics

  Full transistors
  
  Input 2 high / low gain
  
  Effects loop and preamp output + input amplifiers
  
  75Watts RMS, here we do not play on words with the power consumption which is 150watts
  
  A gain, volume 1
  
  A low, one hight
  
  7-band graphic equalizer a detachable
  
  A bright switch (very effective)
  
  A contour switch (not bad)
  
  HP Sheffield
  
  Made in America

  Utilization

  Configuration ultra-simple manual minimalist but not essential.
  
  No clip indicator on the gain setting and no saturation observed so random position and without significant influence, in this case it is the middle one asks any questions.
  
  To get a good sound you will have to play the equalizer minutes.
  
  While attention is 33kilos by a handful, certainly it is very strong but I'm pretty tough, I carry heavy loads every day, and this amp is nevertheless a terrible chore to carry the Tolex is taking shots at each load in the 205.

  Sounds

  It does not suit my style: too rock, too medium, too fat.
  
  I'll be even found myself correcting with the equalizer but are bowl 15 ", it's not for me.
  
  for the round you have to dig a max boost the medium and severe and acute, the result is acceptable.
  
  Nothing wrong side power is made to shout, to shake the walls. Use outdoor concert in mid-volume so as not to cover the battery.

  Overall Opinion

  I bought it there is barely a year, I needed an amp to rehearse and make little scenes all at a fair price, it is reliable, sturdy, but the sound is not precise enough for my style.
  
  Good quality / price ratio, good power, very heavy
  
  I will not repeat this choice cars have changed my needs, I need less power.

  Archion's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Sex Drugs and Rock'n'Roll!"

  Characteristics

  Bass Combo with transistors, 80 watts announced (25.4vrms)
  
  
  
  Active and passive input, effects loop, output and input pre amp (not very useful for my taste), headphone jack. Lacking an ID
  
  
  
  Gain, bright and contour, slope (bass-treble assets + / - 15dB), active 7-band EQ + / - 15dB devilishly effective! A master has a uniform
  
  
  
  But no effects pedals anyway it is more convenient and often better
  
  
  
  Sheffield HP 15 inches, no tweeter but frankly they're going!

  Utilization

  One method is to put everything in the middle and enjoy a sound longer than correct. The other is to move like me a little time to settle, the result is sublime! Perfect for all round and fat records, rock, punk, hardcore, it is well over 15''! for a more incisive and slamming prefer a 12''+ tweeter even if it comes out as well (at first sight, it is not my type of sound).
  
  The manual is br ****, I would not know what it is on an amp, except perhaps for the modes but I do not like anyway ...

  Sounds

  I play it with an Ibanez SR 180 because I'm not rich ... I have a lamp before preamp (12AX7) in the end I no longer use and especially a boss ODB3 (overdrive) that cash beautifully without flinching!
  
  A sound that shakes the floor and walls despite my passive pickups, long live the 15 inches!! it is not for the slap but can be done if we are not demanding. For everything else except the fast metalcore where he sometimes lacks insight, he shows excellent and powerful! I've never used more than one tenth of his power, he has it in spades!

  Overall Opinion

  I have this amp for several months and certainly for a while!
  
  I warn you now: 33 pounds and a mere handful on top! With my set of wheels I simplifies life except for the stairs ... But good all the old 100 watts are the weight and a set-top cabinet is more than double ...
  
  Otherwise we can go there without hesitation it's solid and reliable

  Anonymous 's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  - Amp combo transistors, simple dlivrant 75 Watts RMS into 8 ohms.
  
  - Connection complte: between active / passive, effects loop, pr-amp output.
  
  - Volume + Master + high-low gain
  
  - 7-band EQ, active treble boost, primarily for slappeurs.
  
  - Big bowl of 15-inch Sheffield.
  
  - Made in the UK
  
  - No effect.
  
  
  
  The power is sufficient to rpter and concerts caf bar ...

  Utilization

  - Configuration simplissime
  
  - All sounds are possible thanks to boost treble and equalizer but not worth a tweeter. The big bowl of the cash 15 5 string.
  
  - The manual is a bit lightweight.

  Sounds

  - Ideal basically sound (dub, reggae, metal): I make rock again, I do not know slapper, a glue.
  
  - I play with a bass equipped with 2 humbuckers, made the sound.
  
  - I do not like slamming sound, I prfre big round sounds good, and this amp is perfect.

  Overall Opinion

  - I use it for 7 years, I tried more expensive brands to more "prestigious" but I chose this one for the bowl 15 and the equalizer that allows you to highlight serious. (in my case)
  
  
  
  - The report price is good quality, Peavey is a good brand coronation. What j'apprcie: 0 problem, 0 down. A reliability of thunder, APRS all these years, not a knob spitting, no grsillement, unlike guitarists I know and who play on better-known ones. Works like new. But it's not "Made in China"
  
  
  
  Small BMOL: phnomnal weight!

  barbus des vosges's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  75 Watt RMS
  
  2 input jack active passive
  
  standard setting for a bass amp

  Utilization

  After already playing on a Fender BXR 300, a Peavey TNT 115 and 160, or a behringer 1200 BXR, I can say that the TKO 115 is a beautiful beast perfectly capable of undergoing almost all types of music today.
  
  
  
  easy to handle, a little feeble compared to a fender but at a ridiculous price (I bought mine for 150 euros (I had to change a knob about 5 euros))

  Sounds

  As I mentioned agree to all styles of music in RP but with a lot of scratch (or 2) it becomes limited, masi for a group of jazz blues is nickel
  
  I played it with a warwick 5 string active (it rocks all), and with my 4-string bass Hohner sound is excellent.

  Overall Opinion

  It's been 6 months and I use it for 150 euros OCCAZ I never found better, less is true that a Trace Elliot (but really 300 W RMS)

  Dams66's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  Transistor amp
  
  About 100W
  
  2 Input Jacks
  
  An 8-band equalizer

  Utilization

  Amp very very very easy to use.
  
  In terms of its all depend on the bass used.

  Sounds

  With my Squier PB Sounds of hell. Since I play the blues I managed to find a nice sound all round and fat while keeping the attack.

  Overall Opinion

  At first I was not really a fan of Peavey and OCCAZ me grandpa came across this today and I confess that I totally seduced. Marriage with the Precision Bass is really surprising.
