SOLD.

Up for sale is a Carvin BRX112 combo amp in virtually new condition (only 8 months old.) It has been babied, and gigged only 3-4 times. This is a really great sounding and performing amp with tons of power. You can load the amp down to 2 ohms by attaching external cabs if you want, or you can enjoy 300 watts to the internal 12" speaker. Clean, clear, transparent and feature rich.

Here are Carvin's specs:

BRX112NEO - Combo 800w Bass Amp

The BRX112NEO Combo features the B800 head with the articulate NT12 Neodymium 12" speaker and a 1" titanium horn. The head features an added 50w high frequency power amplifier to drive the horn for a true bi-amped system. All this is cased in a virtually indestructible Baltic birch plywood cabinet covered in our tough Duratex™ finish, with tilt back design and steel handles. The BRX112NEO offers the performance of a $2000 rig in one lightweight and compact unit.

The B800 mono block bass head, built straight from our powerful B1500 head, offers the same rich tone generated from discrete class A preamps. The DRIVE control can push the Class A preamps to a slight warm growl, or use the volume control to get the cleanest purest sounds from class A circuits. High power headroom delivers 300w into 8ohms, 500w into 4ohms, and 800w into 2ohms. The high efficiency of the NT12 Neodymium speaker has the effect of nearly doubling your volume. Night after night you''''ll appreciate the amp’s cool running design and bullet proof reliability.

The B800''s boutique classic signature "flat response" is supplemented with 6 simple, but targeted tone controls:
- SUB BASS
- BASS
- LO MID
- MID
- HI MID
- TREBLE

These smooth feeling brass knobs offer precise tone control to make your bass sound like a "fresh breath of air".

Front switches include:
- ACTIVE/PASSIVE INPUT
- AMP MUTE*
- EFFECTS LOOP*
*controllable by the optional FS22 footswitch

Rear features include:
Effects loop, pre/post XLR direct output with level control and ground lift, unmuted tuner out, footswitch, hi freq. amp level, high current SPEAKONtm and 1/4" speaker outputs.

I still have the box and packaging this amp came in. I'm looking to get $450 shipped in the US 48 states. Paypal or postal money order.

Need more info? Just ask!

That would sit nice on top of a 212 cab for 4 or 2.67 ohms! I am assuming as the combo sits now, it is 300w@8ohms?

Correct. The internal speaker is 8 ohms. Many people use this with one or two more 12" speakers with great results. It is a rare combo. Not many can go to 2 ohms with external speakers attached.

I have a deal, pending payment. One person "in line" if something goes wrong.

Well, no payment or communication for 8 days from my "buyer." The person next in line already got the same amp from another source. Soo...

Back on the market with a new, lower price of $450 shipped in the 48 states.
