Amp transistor
6.5 jack / XLR
2x500 W into 4 ohms
Not convinced by the corrections ...

UTILIZATION

The sound is not terrible terrible, corrections are not topissimes. Also, I go through a chain of effects including a preamp that I connect to send / return on the amp Ashdown. Corrections of the amp therefore serve me. The sound is much better in this configuration. The output is two speakers MesaBoggie:
a: 2x10 + Txeeter
b: 1x38
all 4 ohms and I have thus 2x500 Watts (it moves ...)

SOUNDS

For sounds, see above. I play it mostly with a MusicMan Sub and occasionally with a Mustang Bass, totally not the same thing but happy all the same because I do not serve me...…

OVERALL OPINION

for a little more than 1 year, no worries with the config send / return. Such power for this price, it is very correct if they have already a preamp to treat her.

To conclude and render unto Caesar: the trick to send / return, I read here on Audiofanzine and I admit that it is (very) efficient. I do not remember the author of the trick and if it recognizes in reading this review: THANK YOU!

this amp is a class D amp which means an amp processor and full transistor transistor but not as some have posted ..... a chain of transistor for amplification 1000W take much more space!! !
the amplifier delivers 2 x 500 W into 4 ohms and 2 x 300 W into 8 ohms
connectivity level is the package which bassist needs loop DI effect so no complaints

UTILIZATION

this amp is very easy to use one branch is touched two buttons and it works on the rule equalo and hop hop hop .....
sound to a 300 amp roros for this power is almost unparalleled especially this weight (3.4kg)

I play with several config
either a roland or I use both inputs js (bass and microphone) super convenient to the chorus and bass with six pounds to wear in addition to the bass (especially for rpeter JS-10 .... )
a gr-55 with roland and where I use my amp little giant as a return to the big scenes and reissued on a sound and fair as if amp
and also just the bass plugged in without anything to effect a blues band
I manage to get all that I want sonoritées I play with hartkey VX115 cabinet and 10 "in the series of Ibanez promotean
and I play on a U.S. rebop in spector of a fretless unknown brand made in china

OVERALL OPINION

I CAN BE USED two years wholesale and toutafais should use a (professional) asked but one downside that set apart ca will have had my share of a real palm is the DI real crap .... ..

All right.

Not much to add, except that I've never had an amp as light or as powerful.

UTILIZATION

Very handy, especially the effects loop.

SOUNDS

Amp very "mat" with a fairly neutral amp.
I play on a low active, but I do not use the "active", which reduces too much gain.

OVERALL OPINION

Very powerful, very light, very convenient.

There are better (all tube amps) set is much heavier and much more expensive.

What type of amplification
is a class D amplifier transistor and therefore frankly very versatile in my taste
connectivity is super simple input device with a switch to an active or passive instrument DI an effects loop input output line
and two sockets Speakon combo jack 6.35
head delivers 1000 watts! that is to say 2x500 watts into 4 ohms so it's rather balèze to a head this size and this price

UTILIZATION

as regards the general configuration is frankly very simple ba ago gain entry with a view meter located at the chain end so it responds well to EQ settings
that a deep bass boost frequency 30 Hz and has a shape
EQ 4 band semi parametric is super efficient

UTILIZATION

as regards the general configuration is frankly very simple ba ago gain entry with a view meter located at the chain end so it responds well to EQ settings
that a deep bass boost frequency 30 Hz and has a shape
EQ 4 band semi parametric is super efficient
on the manual it is frankly very simple and sincerely for a machine like the there is not really useful so that head is easy to use
sound level have achieved a very good and made very quickly by searching a bit and still live even plug it sounds more on this head really respect the sound of the instrument and the dynamic

SOUNDS

I play mostly metal so it 's why I needed a lot of power (I mean 1000 watt is a bit exaggerated anyway:)
and the metal it is doing very well and for many different style

The sound palette is very rich have come fast to have a fat or very simply slamming looking a bit

I used a group with a ibanez BTB plugging into a tech 21 psa 1 in the feedback loop of the head with a 4X10 cabinet ampeg svt classic, and frankly it sends a very heavy I really was no trouble breaking into the mix and yet we're playing OD

and my home I live in a branch cabinet Gallien Krueger 2X10 RBX
in 8ohm is more than enough


OVERALL OPINION

I use extensively for 5 months and frankly I am fully satisfied that its either in my home again or she'll live very well

before I had a Hartke head ha recess 2500 so it is day and night:) and if I had the opportunity to try a EBS Fafner one of my good friends is yet another such things is in the same dimensions

what I like most is that this head is super easy to carry versatile only fault was that I blame ashdown is the color of the head which is a rather bad taste is orange very special in my case I find it ugly but hey the important thing is that it sounds

after value for money is hard to beat because the price of the head about 300 euros an AC watt is not expensive and two I'm repeating it sounds good
with the experience I think I REFERRED choice really it never fails me a little monster
