Two amps...one bass

[tubatodd]

So I have 3 combo amps and two of them seem like they might work quite nicely together. I thought about running the XLR out from one amp into the input of the other, but that doesn't seem ideal.

I've seen ABY switches, but I was wondering what y'all think. Can anyone recommend a good inexpensive ABY switch? Thanks

Boss has one for ~$40. Behringer has one for ~$35. But it's not clear to me what you're going to do with it. Neither would let you run both amps at the same time.

Buffered split will do. Boss TU2 does it.

The morley ABY switches will get it done just fine... I found one for 25 here

This is a great unit!! Its A-B-Y so you can also run both at the same time. It has phase reversal on one channel and transformer isolation if needed.

It's not cheap - or inexpensive about $100

I use a Whirlwind A B Y.

No issues..I am very satisfied using it..NO EXTRANEOUS NOISE, EITHER.

I can either use both amps or reverse it and run 2 basses into one amp..either way A B Y is a great tool to have.

Many brands to choose from.. keep us posted as for your choice.

Won't work on the TU-3 far as I can tell.

I run two separate rigs through my chorus pedal.

I have a hartke kickback 10 and now a TC bg250-210 and I thought I could link them (A+B) to make a single 370w 310 rig. The goal is to add some more headroom to the TC when needed. A good clean reliable ABY is what sounded best.

Lehle makes some really high quality switchers. A little more pricey but dead quiet and solidly built.
