If I need more than an amp can comfortably give I get the larger model. Same with cabs. I'd be surprised if any TH500 heat issues were caused by an overcrowded box, because there's enough room in there to play a game of football. I've owned 2 TH500's and I can guarantee they only had one fan. Quote
Obra Posted December 2, 2019 Posted December 2, 2019 I use GK MB212 II, changed it for old GK MB210, so now I do not need to run it on more than 1/3 of the full power. The old MB210 was quite seriously used but never got overheated. However on a new MB212II, fan is pretty loud and turns on very often. Generally, I like Class D so much, that would never go back for a Solid State. Quote
machinehead Posted December 2, 2019 Posted December 2, 2019 The EBS Reidmar 750 is a superb amp and, in my experience, totally reliable. I've also used it with a single Barefaced one10 and never had a problem. As chris_b says, use your ears and you'll be fine. Even more so with a pair of 12" cabs. Frank. Quote

I've just put it under the spotlight and there is a fan inside the casing. I guess now I've got to give my Scouts Observation badge back!!!! Apologies to all. Quote
