Zombywoof Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Is this just a preamp? (sorry for being thick)

(sorry for being thick) [/quote] Nope, a rather fantastic 600 watt digital power amp with three tubes in the front end (one for the gain, one for the bass and treble, and one for the mids). They are truly lush amps.

Zombywoof Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Would I need two 8ohm cabs to get this at 4ohms/600 watts? (please bear with me, I'm new to caring about gear)
bozzie Posted October 12, 2011 Author Posted October 12, 2011 yes or one 4ohm cab, the amp will then run at the full 600w
dmccombe7 Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) I've used this with an Ampeg 8x10 at 8 ohm and it is still loud enough for a 5 piece classic rock band and gives that nice warm valve sound into the bargain. You can also get a really nice tube distortion if you play about with the gain controls. Great amp. I love it and its extremely light weight and portable too. At this price its an absolute bargain.
