Little Mark II, please accept my apology.

i tried one (LMII) at my local GC, they had it hooked up to a GK 210 gold series, played JBass with it and it sounded nice to my ears, loads of punch and low end too

so i wonder how it would do with my 4ohm avatar 410

At the risk of being Redundant - I just Bought a Little Mark and play it through and SWR Goliath and an Ampeg BSE15T - it Kills plain and simple. Sounds so good I want to get another one so I am never without one again! There take that!!

The VPF cuts lows just under 400 hz, which can really subtract from the bottom end fatness you might be looking for. It might be best to leave the VPF alone, and instead cut high-mids on the EQ to get the amount of scoop you want. Let us know how it all works out for you.

Well here's what I came up with. I set the gain till the clip light just barely blinks and then backed off slightly. I ran the lows at 1:00, mid lows at 1:00, mid highs at between 10:00 and 11:00, highs at 12:00 with the Maple P bass and at 1:00 with the Rosewood P bass. VLE and VPF were off. Master at 10:00. The amp sounded very punchy and tight through my cab here at home which is an Ashdown ABM 414T 410 cab.

Bottom was decent and very clean sounding but not where I like it to be. That's not a fault with the LMII but rather the Ashdown which is a 70Hz-20kHz cabinet. I bought that cab to run on top of my 410HLF to add more mid and high punch which it does well at.

Overall the LMII does seem to prefer being run almost flat where it performs very well for a 500 watt unit. I'll try it at the same settings next practice on the 410HLF and see how it sounds. So far I'm loving this amp.

Ya, it's definitely designed to be run flat. But I can't take anything past 5k, so I run the VLE to about 9:00. Otherwise, by far the best results I get with it are running it flat.
