How Many 2-Channel Bass Heads Out There? And good ones too?
The Marshall 450 watter only gets you the 450 if running at 2 ohms. I always am uncomfortable with running 2 ohms, thinking its a set-up for heat problems. Please correct if wrong and with examples.

| | | | Several of the GK heads -- the MB fusion and higher MB series -- have two gain knobs to toggle between. Not exactly two channels -- you still share the EQ between both, if I recall -- but you can dial in clean and grit. |

Liam | Carvin has a footswitchable graphic EQ section on the BX1500. So not two channels excactly but you get two different EQ sections you can switch between. Plus two power sections you can run bi-amped or bridged. Or VT Deluxe into power amp of choice=3 to 6 channels.

Plus watching the knobs move by themselves when you step on the pedal is kinda cool too!

I use them for doubling gigs all the time. Of course they are very high end boutique amps. Great mind you, but for the price their going for these days, you could just buy two PF 500's, or two GK BM500's and still have only spent half of what they cost, including a set of cabinets.
