    Bass Combo recommendations for a backline

    I also have an avalon, manley and ADL DI boxes along with a qsc plx3002. Could I pair these with a bass cabinet and keep the placers happy at least for the big rig?:confused: ?

    Bass Combo recommendations for a backline

    I have been loo**** at the 700rb GK amps. They have more power than the 800rb. I like GK's Direct out options that allow you to get a post effect di. That with the GK or SWR 410 seems like the way to go. I might also consider the super read head combo for the smaller stage and maybe get a 18inch...

    Bass Combo recommendations for a backline

    Thanks again guys. I think the backline 600 will do but it seems that I should have more concern with the cab. Pretty much I have to get a 4-10 (or two 2X10) cabinets from either eden or SWR. It looks as such I am going to be spending at least $700 on each rig. What are the opinions on the...

    Bass Combo recommendations for a backline

    Any more opinions out there? Are GK Backline cabs really that bad? IS the backline 600 powerful enough? Would you be disappointed with a GK backline head or other? What is the opinion of genz benz cabinnets? Are 2 -2-10 cabs just as good as a 4-10? What are the opinions on the SWR Pro...

    Bass Combo recommendations for a backline

    Remeber, these amps will also be miced or DIed into the live sound rig, and the bassists will have monitors (albeit 12" eaws) so that may change your thinking. Also, I am not doing huge acts, but it would be an option. That is why I prefer to get one killer amp and one slightly smaller (er...

    Bass Combo recommendations for a backline

    I really appreciate your input so far. The thing is I have to buy two amps and I will only get paid $500. So my max is $600 each or maybe $800 for one and $400 for another smaller. One of the rooms is about 25' by 70' and the other is outdoors. Maybe I could go with a 2X10 rig for upsairs...

    Bass Combo recommendations for a backline

    How about the gallien Krueger 400rb and a 4X10 CAB by GK? Or how about the backline series of gear. GK seems the best costwise. Do you think this would suffice? Thanks for your input. Regards, Mario

    Bass Combo recommendations for a backline

    Hey Guys I own a sound reinforcement company and I want to buy a combo amp to offer as part of a backline package. I am looking to spend $400-500 used for a good combo if it is possible. I thought I would come here to get suggestions from bass player on what you would like to see. How many...
