Sercet Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) I have for sale my Acoustic Image Focus amp (Series III). These amps have an excellent reputation for use with double bass, acoustic bass guitar, cello and other acoustic instruments. It's a very clean, pure sound - it's the sound of the instrument you plug in, only louder. I've also used this with electric bass, sometimes with a valve preamp or pedal. When Acoustic Image released the Series III amps, I believe this was the same as the Coda+ amp but with more power. With the series 4 amps, Acoustic Image consolidated the range and the Focus has been superseded by the Coda+ - i.e. the power of the Coda+ has been upgraded. Some key features make this a great choice for double bass players or those wanting to use two instruments:[list] [*]Two channels, each with a dual input (XLR or jack) make it easy to switch between two instruments or to use a pickup and a microphone on a double bass. [*]Switchable phantom power on each channel. [*]Switchable notch/cut filter with variable frequency on each channel - helps eliminate feedback and boom. [*]Built in effects (Hall, Room, Plate, Delay, Chorus, Flange) [*]Three band EQ (Bass, Middle, Treble) [*]Effects send and return [*]XLR Out (Switchable Pre or Post EQ) [*]Ground Lift [*]1000 watts at 2ohms, 800 at 4ohms, 450 at 8 ohms [*]10x8x3.5 inches, weighs just 5lbs [*]Two speakon outputs [*]Switchable voltage [*]Acosutic Image carry bag [/list] Generally good condition - i.e. clean sound, no noise - but some scratches to the case. £420 I am based in Worcester Edited March 27, 2013 by Sercet
zero9 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Great amp, have a bump on me. Btw, I think this particular model puts out 400W at 4 Ohm and 500W at 2 Ohm.
Owen Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 [quote name='zero9' timestamp='1363037118' post='2007506'] Great amp, have a bump on me. Btw, I think this particular model puts out 400W at 4 Ohm and 500W at 2 Ohm. [/quote] I am more or less certain that the OP's specs regarding power are correct. I already have an AI otherwise I would be buying this one. Very few of the small heads go down to 2 Ohms. This is a steal.
zero9 Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 your absolutely right owen, I like to make an idiot of myself now and again lol. Mine looks identical, apart from the Clarus badge on the front. The Focus is indeed 800W at 4 Ohm. Another bump for an even greater amp. I found the 2 Ohm capability a great benefit, allowing me to drive up to four 8 Ohm cabs.
