Help me choose an amp

[ssbass]

I'm having trouble choosing an amp. I'm trying to decide between a GK 400RB IV or a MB2-500. Right know i have a GK Neo 112-II cab.

I play in a rock cover band and i would like to add another Neo 12 or 2x10 down the road.

Get the MB2-500. You won't be disappointed with that rig Definitely one of my favorites of the new micro heads.

Do get it new and enjoy the warranty. A lot of the older revisions of them had issues.

I'm in this same predicament now trying to decide between two heads on the TB forums. Its my first head, its a big step..

See if you can rent them for a week or so and test in em your band....that should help you decide.

I don't mean to hijack your thread, but I also need help! I just picked up an Ampeg svt 810e cabinet used for a price too cheap to list.. I played around with an Orange Tiny Terror in stores through the Orange isobaric 4x10 and it was awesome. Blew me away. Now, do you think/know if there's enough power in it to run to the ampeg 810 and sound as great? What's the deal with ohms and what not... I know the ampeg stereo is 4 ohms mono 800 watt and 8 ohms stereo 2 x 400 watt? The Tiny Terror is switchable between 4 and 8? Help!

8x10 is more than 4x10 (this is a good thing, more speaker area equals more volume/spl), the TT will definately move some air through an 8x10.

A friend on mine has 700 watts into an 810 in his basement, it's the cat's azz.
