Yes. You won't find a better option.
Actually there is, maybe, a better option.. the M2500

There are more folks on the very large "Monique" thread who now use the M700 and M2500. You might post there. Also, there is an active community on the facebook/moniqueforbass as well as a closed group (request access) on facebook called "Jule Amps for bass and guitar". The last group is made up mostly of active users. They should all help you with your quest. Always have fun.I have done a lot of reading on the M700 the last weeks.
I really like the idea of a clean volume only amp.
In my current setup my amp is just a "slave" sitting on the cab.
I only adjust the volume on it once the gain is set.
All adjustments of tone are done on the basses preamp..
And they are not drastic, just slight around the sweet spots..
I have a Cali76 on my pedalboard (and some other stuff) so I am able to set my input gain nicely
Do you guys think the M700 would work for my setup?
I have never seen or heard any Jule stuff in my part of the world!?

For the heck of it I plugged my bass directly into the input on the M700, bypassing Monique. It doesn't get as aloud because of the gain staging but it sounds really good.
I can confirm that going directly into the M2500 sounds fantastic. Haven't done it on a gig yet, but some experimenting at home showed it would work fine if my Monique goes out on me.Yep,
It's the perfect amp in that regard. Makes the schlep really easy. You have to turn the volume up a bit, but it works great. Of course the M2500, would be incredible sans pre.

This is a dormant thread. I just put my name on the list with Jule for the M700.
