«  it does its job »

Published on 05/28/12 at 02:05
head amplifier transistor class D.
500w at 4 ohms, 300W under 8ohm. Made in Italy
effects loop, two speaker outputs Speakon / jack, tuner out, XLR line out.
4-band EQ, two filters (VPF: the hollow midrange, STEL: Increases the hollow midrange and treble).
gain and master.

head weighs 2 kg and fits easily into the pocket of a low house.
ideal when you need to walk around with!

exemplary finish: aluminum casing, the knobs do not spit and do not turn all alone.

UTILIZATION

easy operation, the setting is somewhat limited and its rapidly changing sound a snap thanks to the filters (just turning a knob).

we easily get a good sound and the EQ is very responsive.

take very good bass too.

SOUNDS

I play jazz with but little used in any style because of its versatility.
Please note this is not a product "typed" as an ampeg. the sound is fairly accurate and transparent.

I use it mainly with a WW corvette 5 string Ibanez SR505 and a fretless. all connected to a speaker markbass 112 (500w, 10kg!).

OVERALL OPINION

used for 4 years, this is an excellent product: light, simple, efficient and reliable fare is also not prohibitive for a product manufactured in Europe (700 euros).

The big advantage of this head is its lightness allows me to take it anywhere by dragging in my house or in a backpack.
it's tough stuff (solid box, no lights ...) so it supports quite well the bourlingage. the only concern that I have had the fan is blocked by frost when my head had passed the night in the car at -10 degrees!

plain a good product, especially considering the market price of the opportunity ...
