Double Bass Tecamp for DB? You betcha!

[Mike Arnopol]

Just got a Puma 900. Needed a lot more power to test some of the bigger, sillier cabs I'm making. 900 watts into 4 ohms---2 1/2#
Just played a gig on upright. Nice jazz setting.

I think I'm going to accept the endorsement. BEST AMP I'VE EVER PLAYED THROUGH.

You know how I'm always talking about envelope? The notes just popped out effortlessly with the best combination of warmth, detail and functional thump I've ever heard. Not a ton of EQ but very intuitive and functional. VERY easy to get a sound.

I still love the Doubler's sound and NO amp has the cool features it has.

But the Tecamp sounds better.

That thing looks sick! Having trouble finding prices.

When Mike says something's good we have to take notice!

 

[Freddels]

Which cab were you using?

 

[Mike Arnopol]

Well---I have all of the Thunderchilds and Greenboy cabs around---tried it with them.

But all I use personally on gigs are Big E's.

They're pretty dear...I think around $1k for the 500, and $1400 for the 900.

Well, actually although the price is pretty steep some of the less expensive amps can be tricky to repair. I wonder what kind of arrangement TecAmp has to service their products stateside? I wouldn't want to ship the amp back and forth to europe to have it repaired.

That's a very important consideration for me.

Although I trust Mike that the amp sounds great, the price seems high for a single channel amp.
