Micromark 801...

Mine arrived today. I cannot overstate how impressed I am with this little combo. Seems to break the laws of physics, on a 5 string bass no less. I can't bring myself to turn it up past 65%; 30% is more than enough to fill my house. I had planned to leave it home as a practice amp and gig with a Standard 151HR paired with my JB Player's School, but now I'm tempted to drive the 151HR with the Micromark at the next gig and see how it holds up. If I need more oomph I can get it from our PA, fed through the Micromark's XLR out.
 
I love mine , need more volume mic it up . A 57 or 58 straight in has just about the perfect tone IMO .
I have the optional Cat security system on it as well . though cat is now almost 18 lbs. and requires 2 hands

I have one markbass micromark 801and i'm in love with its sound and every features.

Last week i took home for a days my other two cabs, one swr workingman 210 (200 w) and hartke vx 115 (300 w).

I connected both of them (not at the same time of course) and i found i can get a nice and powerfull sound for the power of the amp ( 60 w 4 ohm).

My only doubt: can the aux cab (200 or 300 w) be damaged in anyway considering the amp is only 60 w?

Thank you!

If you use your ears and common sense, no.
