Hartke 410TP + Head

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey there fellow TB'ers! In a little bit of a conundrum here. I will preface this post by saying I am by and large clueless when it comes to Cabs/Amps (whether it be Ohms/Wattages, how the # of speakers effects the flow of Wattages etc), and as such I don't know squat about pairing Cabs+Heads for the best compatibility.

I also have read up on some of this info, but I feel like interacting with ya'll will help make things much clearer for me.

The deal: I currently just have an Ampeg BA115 combo amp, my friend/co-worker sold me his Hartke 410TP for 40 bucks. I cannot use my Combo Amp as a head as far as I see it.

What I am asking is for suggestions for some nice mid range heads to purchase that would last me a while that would be compatible with this Hartke 410TP and my goal is hopefully to end up with a 6x10 Rig within the year (preferably Ampeg).

The sound I tend to like is a punchy mid that has a thick presence in the mix. Looking for a head pairing that would compliment the Hartke's Aluminum Cone speakers without being too sharp, and transfer well to a higher end cabinet. I want to make sure I don't under power or over power this cab.

Anyways, many thanks for reading, I appreciate it. If I am off bass (Sp on purpose lol) posting this my apologies, feel free to move it or delete mods. Will post the Hartke's specs below:

Any bass amp (head) will work. You'll need to shop for that.
