300W bass amplifier transistors 4 Ohms quip of a HP 15-inch 8 Ohms. It therefore dlivre roughly the 175 / 200W alone, he goes to a quip baffle 300 into 8 Ohms in additional SERIES.
There are two types: Combo (BXR300) or 2 body (BRX300H). Note that the head is identical in both cases.
Between active, passive, pr-output power section, from direct to the power section (the jacks while 6.35 of course)
Output Jacks Hp
SETTING THE volume, bass, med, with acute paramtrique of mediums.
A small compressor bad.
Treble booster (effective)
A booster of low (effective)
In short, there is a choice ... no XLR direct out, it dates back to 1988-1989, c 'silent may not be the fashion era?
The bad point justifying "only" 7 / 10: The weight! Amp trs heavy (in the 60 kgs) so I cut in two: The speaker and his wheels of a ct and the head (which I rack) of the another. I also put casters + beefy and with the brakes, and adding two grips. Without a, I could never put it in my chest alone ... (and then with 15d of kin between the concerts ...)
Otherwise, another dtail: AMP indestructible. Mine comes from a room rptition the Paris region o ad to see the green and not ripe ... One day I dropped the head flat on my tile ... Well I never had any pb with ... and yet it is not very young! So heavy but sturdy.
I read somewhere on the Net is the story of a BXR300 who had spent several days under water after a flood. Aprsschage he was back in service!

UTILIZATION

Simple yes, everything you need and nothing superfluous. (Except the compressor without rglage, the only to save the HP ...)
For good sound, yes. I do not have an exprience of 50 amps derrire me (the second a small APRS Trace Eliott 60W), but I soon had something that sounded.
However, do not use hsiter rglages quite extreme and use the two filters treble and bass. In fact, leaving any "flat", there was not much terrible at first.
The fault in HP mid-range ... not the height of the head for me.
Indeed, when I use the head with only one or two 4x10 cabinets Ampeg home, makes a much better sound!
Manuel clear, Electronic Schematic provided.

SOUNDS

Having a little trouble with rglages extreme, I finally they add a legalization of Boss pedals GEB7. So I go directly between the "power amp in", and sounds ...
However, it is a fair bit on the snes in the open if we do not just derrire the amp itself.
We gain much in power with two speakers, it comes out the the 300W into 4 ohms

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a beginners 2005.
The advantage: The sound, solid.
Its less: The weight, look awful (I've reworked for a lot too!)
No, I have not tried 36 MODELS until you have, but I'm a hard spare. Those who had sold me to replace purchased a Peavey 3 bodies, and they said they would push for much lower and its BXR300 with the ...
If c'tait again: Yes, hsiter, given the price that I got it! Currently he serves me amp RPET, a not worth my Ampeg, but it still performs its function without any failure.
