    Transistors. 120 watts. Between active / passive + XLR output. 3 band equalizer + control "shape"

    UTILIZATION

    Setup was simple and ultra sound right away.

    SOUNDS

    I play rock, reggae, jazz and it's always good. a rare versatility.
    I play it with a Kubicki Factor active (very strong), a passive or Steinberger XTB with Rob Allen MB2 electro-acoustic (with piezo) fretless 5. In short low trs diffrent never betrayed by the amp, on the contrary! Others have played bass on it with precision, and even Jazz Bass Sting Ray with the same happiness.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have over four years.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have over four years.
    I like the cot "tiltable" fawn "return" to the very practical s'avre mini scnes that we are often proposed. It allows for the sound in the ear without forcing the volume or surllever the amp. by weight against the heavy colas and ct does not always goes up or down the stairs, but it has been worse for 120 watts.
    Before this amp, I had an old head like Ampeg 200W lamps, plus a cabinet of the same age. I was using that power and corrected with an equalizer. Since qualiser is chmage and I stopped to go play in a truck.

    120W transistor amp, XLR output, an adjustable shape, a volume, bass, middle, and treble.

    UTILIZATION

    Trs simple configuration, there's a nice fast trs (versatile amps) is not easily get a round (well, not too even when it's not his thing too) or a well slamming (I think that's what he does best). I regret not having just one knob for gain, to decrease a little, because I attack hard, and sometimes, well ... it saturates ^ ^

    SOUNDS

    Mtal I play with a lot in slap bass and soloist as well, so the slamming of the amp suits me well, treble (with suitable notice a leveling out well -> we pass well in the band's sound. I play it with a low CORT 24 GB (yes, I'm broke ^ ^)…

I play it with a low CORT 24 GB (yes, I'm broke ^ ^), and the sound is even when trs okay, I was able overcome the defects of my bass with (lack of acute sound that saturates quickly).

    OVERALL OPINION

    Trs good amp for the price (I paid 690 euros alpoque washed) and maintnant it is cheaper, it is even more worthwhile. It can be very useful for small (and medium-Pettite) scenes, and do not let go (although I peter aluminum membrane that is fuming, but He was a manufacturing defect, rpar free tr s quickly and gently by trs HARTKE! thank you after sales service!)

    Transistor bass amp, it shows 120w but it is to use mid-rgime if you want to keep one's prcis.
    Between 6.5 mono jack, XLR direct output line (useful for scne if you have a good sound engineer who "knows" rgler a low table with her), output jack Stereo 6.5 headphone output jack HP derrire 6.5.

    UTILIZATION

    Simple setup, the compression rglage paramtrique of mdiums (which can "dswitcher") is simple but the handle must still be prcis.
    Easily obtained trs sound correct, but if you want perfect sound, be refined according to the room and can take time ...
    The manual is not intrt.

    SOUNDS

    I play jazz / funk and rock / blues with an old Squier Jazz Bass fret - Bartolini pickups - and an old Musicman fretless Stringray - trs large micro home preserved.
    Dswitcher paramtrique compression is useful if we want to respect the natural sound of the fretless makes so much trs. And with the compression paramtrique RULES around 1kHz and a low shrink, we have a sound "slappquot; s'aperoit is balanced and when the amp can do anything , rock, blues, jazz ... everything "going well" with its all perfectly fine (with a lack of sub bass of course) thanks to the aluminum cone with hartkle hp which gives a good clear-cut attack.
    This is a good amp goes everywhere, including the scne and it certainly lacks safe, but the sound can adjust our facade ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    For 5 years.
    What I like is his rponse quick and sharp and versatile.
    I n'apprcie crachouillis not the volume knob that clogs very easy and the quality of jack connectors based plasticky (one can not easily vrifier contacts that are "safe "and screw the connector hp rear is easy to show).
    I tried the range Behringer that I did not AIM (not the net) and the equivalent MODEL Fender Bassman that I did not like too much (too soft attack).
    MODEL silent in the promotion of memory 380 euros, there was no photo, c'tait good ...
