    Same as the B2R (https://fr.forums.audiofanzine.com/produits/index% 2Cidproduit 2C11976.html%)
    except:

    450W instead of 350W at 4ohm
    250W instead of 200W 8ohm
    Speakon connectors

    For galrer not look like me, it's 2U rack!

    UTILIZATION

    "I do not see how simple.
    -It sounds right away, all the buttons noon!
    -The simple manual but in English, who cares given the little knowledge, it is found on the net!
    Vive-Speakon connectors, for death against the price of cable: S

    SOUNDS

    -I associated with an SVT-15E cabinet
    -I have not been able to test as it should, my apartment is not made for: D, but I'll let you know that ds is.

    -I have not been able to test as it should, my apartment is not made for: D, but I'll let you know that ds is.
    -You want bass, any, you want the treble, there a. It's not like the Hartke amps Ashdown studios or to repeat or I o and the sound is mushy and imprcis. The sound is clean, you touch n'importequel button, you immediately see the diffrence in rglage.
    "I have a Cort GB99F and all I will rev well, I can have a super close to Jaco Pastorius (which is not my interest), or sounds very detailed bass style reggae / groove jazz sound also, with the equalizer can be a super rglage for solos, all m'enfin rglages are available for all styles of music (not metal test).
    -It looks like quite the BA115 combo, but with much more potatoes, more rglages, more of everything!

    OVERALL OPINION

    -I for a week, and after 2 minutes in-store test Pigalle, I knew that's what I needed. As much as I like guitar normment types of sounds, as in low, like sound, and that is l.
    "I tried to store the head SVT3PRO possde prampli a lamp, and I did not aim. I found that the B2RE swung over the sauce!
    "It is the AMPEG is not given but what is good and has come!
    -The only thing is I have an AIM from a switch for the equalizer.

    A transistor amp

    Dlivrant 250 watts into 8 ohms and 400 watts into 4 ohm

    Multiple possibilities of connection (between a jack, output jack, XLR, effects loop ...)

    No effect on it, but a four fairly efficient 12 bands you can easily disable)

    +: Rglage and ability of many output
    -: Not always powerful enough and a single output hp

    UTILIZATION

    The effective rglage 12 bands of equalization is not given to just anyone, we'll have a good time in the room rept order to find the best rglages.

    By disabling the equalization, the first sound came mdium the dish is a fairly dry.

    The manual is satisfesant

    +: EQ 3 / 12 tapes facilitating rglages

    SOUNDS

    -This amp is versatile trs, I play rock Ska mtal and no worries. In addition, during a jazz session with my Fidler castro, trs sound serious and findable ---> ps the sound is warm on top, but it has to be MRIT own.

    "I use this amp with:
    An active Ibanez SRX: Big deep sound, enough saturated trend vitte!
    Cort a passive bass sound for big! I also like the funky cot!
    Cort acoustic bass: the rockabilly I think that's his thing too, the acute are a little too dry and too slammed with such low

    +: Use large trs
    -: O there a style he exle?

    OVERALL OPINION

    I play this amp for 3 years, he has made numerous scne with me (caf conc, festival, concert hall), I jou top ped with a big low (with boss), a wireless , and many other gadjet.

    I think this amp tends to be saturated very vitte the HP (mostly small). On or necessarily go to the 4ohm minimum of two or three speakers.

    In this price range, the concurrency is hard. I think his sound is the sound simpa Hartke (especially for medium rock sound and rock bass)

    I think it's a good enough amps to start in scnes serious, but it will not satisfy anyone in search of the big sound, or compete against the body while two lamps friends scratch.

    With the experience and the budjet of the era, I would not change my choice of gear is sturdy and relatively lightweight.

    +: Sonic palette
    -: Power
