Which used Peavey amps should I Buy?

[83Chillout]

Hi TalkBass community!

I do need some advices. I am looking at two similar used bass amp. Both are US made.

A Peavey TKO 115S, 200$ CAN
A Peavey TNT 150, 275$ CAN

Which ones seems to be the best bang for the bucks?

I will mostly used it at home but I do want to keep up with a loud drummer once in while.
Anyone have dimensions or weight info on those beasts. I know that they are pretty heavy!

Regards!

Guy

I think I would go with the TNT 150. It is 150 watts Vs T80 KO 115S whack has only 80 watts. You would get almost 2X the watts for only a few more $$. The TNT may also have a Black Widow speaker. They are heavy for sure but from my experience they are well built. I hope this was a help.

TNT, for all the reasons already mentioned.

TNT150.... but why are these the only 2 amps?

You can't go wrong with a Peavey USA made. If possible, I'd buy both. They're getting hard to come by and when the world is blown away, the only thing left will be USA Peaveys and cockroaches!

I have a TNT150, with I believe they call a scorpion speaker, heavy speaker, cast alum. frame. Its a very good little amp,use it for rehearsals now, but used to gig with it
