malpasso Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 (edited) Hi, everyone. Up for sale is my brand new Genz Benz Stramliner stm 900 head. Purchased via Internet on Aug, 10th from Spain, where I'm based. Just opened and played for two hours in rehearsal. It's in brand new perfect condition, with sticker on ... but tube amps don't seem to be my thing!!!! That's why I'm selling it based exclusively on tone preferences. Original factory package. USA (detachable) power cord, user manual, warranty card...full original content. Dual 115/230 Volt selectable mains switch Includes original padded Genz-Benz Streamliner Gigbag. (worth about 50 Eur!!!) [color=#FF0000][b]Seeking 550 Eur. + 40 Eur. shipping withing the European Union (Standard trackable post)[/b][/color] It's my first go as a seller here at Basschat, but I have a long history both at Ebay and www.bajistas.con, which is the Spanish equivalent to basschat. Genz-Benz amps are hardly known in Spain, so I thought I'd try the British market, where they are much more popular. Please, feel free to post your questions at [[email protected]][email protected][/email] Pic: STM-900 The STM-900 is our 900 watt version of the Streamliner™ design. The 300 volt All Tube Class A preamp design is driven by three 12AX7 preamp tubes utilizing six gain stages. The preamp design features an intuitive and highly effective tone network which is a unique blend of a modified passive Baxandall network for the bass and treble along with an active tube driven mid filter with selectable mid frequencies. The versatile all tube preamp exudes a fat and rich tone that remains articulate. It can be used to simply add warmth to your natural tone or it can be dialed in to provide a wide range of natural tube overdrive. Along with our preamp design that rivals that of many classic tube amplifiers, the STREAMLINER™ 900 also features our proprietary 3 Dimensional Power Management analog technology. Our 3DPM™ adds heft and girth to each individual note, while enhancing the amplifiers responsiveness and headroom. It provides the dynamic and 3 dimensional tone and feel of an all tube power amp design. With its solid extruded aluminum panels, CNC machined solid billet aluminum faceplate and smooth-radius edges the STREAMLINER™ 900 chassis emanates the ruggedness and strength of a world-class touring machine. This brushed aluminum chassis is finished in an anodized Tungsten finish. The powerhouse behind the Streamliner™ 900 is a Class D amplifier and SMPS module, enhanced with our Patent Pending P.H.A.T. (Proprietary Heat Abatement Technology) topology. This delivers robust and reliable, high output performance in a tremendously compact and convenient package. Simply put, this new design offers a more streamlined approach to finding your voice, yet it still carries forth the GENZ BENZ reputation for performance, reliability and innovation. FEATURES • 500 Watts @ 8 ohms; 900 Watts @ 4 ohms • SMPS and Class D power amplifier design • Class A Six Stage Tube Preamp (3x12AX7A Tubes) • Modified Passive Baxandall EQ for the Lows and Highs • Active Tube Driven Mid EQ • Selectable 3-Position Mid Frequencies: 220, 600, 2.5K HZ • Input Mute • Hi Gain switch • Master Volume • 3DPM™ Power Management • Patent Pending P.H.A.T topology • Full Direct Output Interface • Effects Loop • Headphone Input • Aux.

Try and give it more time, it will grow on you [/quote] Musicman20: Thanks for the bump! I know they are fantastic. No wonder players who have used SVTs os b15s rave about them. Just can't afford keeping two amps; and my Markbass sa-450+a DHA EQ tube preamp as as a second tube channel does the tube thing for me and transports me to the hi-fi realm when I need it. Still I think this amp is a must try for those who are into the "All tube sound".

Gareth Hughes Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I just bought a Streamliner 600 after playing only solid state inputs for years. Literally from the first note I was a happy guy. This is a bargain - barely much more than a new 600. BUMP!!!!!!!!!!! (go on Bigwan, you know you want to......) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave_bass5 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Unfortunately mine didnt grow on me and i went back to MarkBass (for good this time). I also went from a SA450 to a Streamliner and while i did enjoy it for most gigs it just wasnt my thing. Great amps though so have a bump on me.
