Acoustic B200H 200w Bass Head Review

Acoustic B200H 200w Bass Head
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Acoustic B200H is a solid Head. It offers quite a punch for only being 200 watts. There are 2 very nice features about this Head. The first is that its air vents are at the top of the Head while the fan is in the back. This provides excellent airflow without hindrance. The second nice feature is the Direct Out located in the back of the Head. The Direct Out allows you to plug your amp into a separate system like a PA system. The Direct Out also has a volume dial to determine how much bass you want to send out. (Most Heads do not provide a Direct Out so if they wanted to go through a PA system, the amp would have to be mic'ed) Overall this Head is solid and can take a beating. It is a steal for the price.

The Acoustic B200H professional head is designed for large club and live applications where it will fill any stage with depth and definition. Used in conjunction with the B115 and/or B410 enclosures, the B200H will easily drive either one or two cabinets in any combination of your choice.The two bass inputs are designed to accommodate both active and passive bass instruments while the Gain and Volume controls give you complete control over the character of your tone. Increase the gain for some old school rock tones, or lower it and turn up the volume for great clean, classic or funk tones. The preamp includes a very natural and tube-like compression as well as a harmonically rich distortion circuit, which keeps your tone musical — even at high volume levels. The B200H also includes a notch filter to tailor your mids, and a six-band EQ for exact control over every nuance of your bass's tone.Rear panel features include a parallel Effects Loop, and XLR balanced Line Out with Level Control and Ground Lift. The two speaker output jacks allow you to directly connect to each enclosure (such as the B115 and/or B410) to maximize your tone and power.The heritage of Acoustic comes through loud and clear in the B200H — a seriously professional stage head for serious bassists.

Behringer BXL1800 180-Watt 2-Channel Bass Workstation Review

Behringer  BXL1800 180-Watt 2-Channel Bass Workstation
Average Reviews:

This is the second BXL1800 I have owned. The first one was perfect. It's small enough to practice with and has balanced XLR out for playing live. Like I said, the first one was perfect. Unfortunately, I sold the first one and ordered another one. The new one was great for a few weeks, then it started sounding distorted, even at very low volume. No amount of adjusting or EQing could fix it, so I decided it must be a bad speaker and ordered a replacement. Upon removing the original speaker, I noticed that it has a 4 Ohm speaker (very odd for a single speaker setup), and that the speaker is only rated for 120 Watts! Why would they put a speaker into a cabinet that cannot handle the amount of power that the amp is supplying?
All I can say is be careful with Behringer. They are low cost, but apparently not always good quality.

Jet City Amplification JCA2112RC Guitar Tube Combo Amplifier Review

Jet City Amplification JCA2112RC  Guitar Tube Combo Amplifier

I've owned this amp for about 6 months and I love it. This amp is a straight-forward single channel rock and blues amp but you can get into heavy metal with a pedal. The distortion is creamy sounding- and distinctly different from other tube amps at this price point (Peavey Valveking, Bugera V22, Crate V16, Blues Jr.) Thank you Mr Soldano! Not a particularly versatile amp- but I think this amp was not intended to be a jack-of-all-trades. What it does do it does wonderfully. Twenty tube watts is plenty for small gigs and jamming with a drummer. The build quality is excellent. This is the JCA 20H head combined with the Eminence special design speaker with added reverb. The reverb is tube driven and sounds lush, but not surfy. I've heard that this is essentially a Chinese-built Soldano Astroverb 16. This amp LOVES humbuckers. I would buy it again and again. The price has come down since I bought it and I think it's a ridiculous bargain at this point. I would also buy their new 50 watt 2-channel combo however I just don't need that much power. I'm a fan of Jet City !

20W all-tube Combo with Eminence Inside. 'combo" of our JCA20H and JCA12S, with tube-driven reverb included. Easy-access speaker connectors on the rear panel allow JCA2112RC to drive external cabinets either with or without the internal Jet City Eminence Custom driver. Stacked on an additional JCA12S, the speaker volume doubles and the added height brings the controls to arm's length in a small club.

Kustom Double Barrel 30 Watt 2x12 Guitar Combo Amplifier Review

This amp is a good value for the money, but does not compare with a real tube amp. The amp is plenty loud, and has OK tone, better than the Fender Frontman, a comparable high-selling amp. It is a bit mid-heavy, high end is not that crisp and the low end can get a little muddy. But dont let that stop you, with some determination and a lot of adjustment, there is some good tone inside that amp.
We found the sweet spot on it, not too loud. We mic it and run through the PA, it sounds great.
Advantages:
-plenty loud
-tone has good range and can be dialed in
-gain channel has a great tube crunch, from bluesy to thrashy!
-great deal, beginner amp price, sounds nearly pro
Disadvantages:
-no footswitch for channel / effects change
-reverb and chorus are crap (turn them off, get nice pedals instead)
-only one input
-no fx loop
