ben604 Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 (edited) After spending the last few months eating bread & water and watching x-factor when I would normally be out playing, I've saved some pennies to put towards a new rig. That being said, I'm not all the way there yet so, I'm considering getting a head first and using a mates cab if someone feels like buying this setup or trading with me for something Ampegy with valves. They're both in very good condition, sound great together and look ace as a rig. To be honest, the amp has so many features, this post would be about a month long if I were to post them all so here's a link to the manual which should explain it all better than I could: [url="http://www.gallien.com/manuals/2000RB.pdf"]http://www.gallien.com/manuals/2000RB.pdf[/url]. The main specs would be: 2x500 watt poweramps delivering 500 watts per channel @ 2ohms in bi-amp or stereo mode or 1 x 1000 watts a side @ 4ohms in bridged mode which is how I use it with the 810. Lots of headroom and two seperate "boost" or gain channels, combined with the eq give you plenty of tonal options from clean and loud to dirty distortion. This used to be the flagship Gallien before the 2001RB came out, so it's a good amp. The Cab is an 810SBX, 800 watts @ 4ohms. Can be run Bi-amped or full frequency, so you have options with other amps etc. Handles anything the 2000RB can throw at it, plenty of bottom end and punch, you can always hear yourself no matter what mess the guitarists and drummer and blasting out! It's got skid rails and is generally very robust. I find it easier to transport than my old 410HLF as you can tilt and slide this thing into a car with ease! As I say, it's not the end of the world if I dont move these at the moment as it's a more than capable rig, I just miss that Ampeg sound is all... I'll post some pictures later on, any interest send me a PM. Thanks, Ben. Edited November 14, 2008 by ben604
