amps designed for sub bass? Hey, i was just windering if anyone knew of amps designed for octaved bass ann stuff like that? |
There are some amps that have subharmonic synthesizers built into them but these are just pure amplifiers - they do not have an instrument pre-amp. Is this what you are asking about ? |
I think you'll be looking more at the speaker end of thing for sub bass, most amps will go lower than you want |
SWR Megoliath is a good sub cab. It's probably the ultimate in Whale technology/cab design. |
If it is marketed for bass guitar, its going to be pretty far from the ultimate design or current technology. |
Not sure if they're made anymore, but Bag End's ELF (Extended Low Frequency) systems would definitely get you there. |

The Bag End subs are still made. They are accurate to 8hz as long as you use their crossover. If you get the powered model make sure you order the amp with the cross over installed (they'll probably do this anyway). And if you're really want to move some air, get the 24" speaker. At NAMM they'll loan these to a couple of builders that specialize in making "SubBass" guitars because it's pretty much the only thing that can reproduce the low strings. |

I got pretty good results with a GK Neo 410 cab and a 1001rb ii |
The above rig (1001 + 410 neo) is mediocre at best. Have been provided this as backline occasionsally. No real lows, cardboardy mids and not much SPL. Far from fEarful etc. |
I would love to try that Knuckle! |

ashly KLR series http://www.ashly.com/Resources/Docum...RDataSheet.pdf +0.3dB 5Hz – 70kHz thats pretty awesome. . .. |
Doesn't matter what the amp can deliver if the speaker can't produce it. Actually the amp is the easy part. |
ANY good poweramp or bass amp, but you want something special in the spkr cab dept. |
