Do we know which power modules they’re using? Their earlier stuff used the ICEpower 700ASC/X, which is a 700w amp, so maybe the same thing. it doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere. Its feasable that if you want 900w and you can accept a THD of 20% then that amp could do it. Although they also make a 1000ASC, so maybe that Nope looking at the interior picture of the module it is a ICEpower700AS1 Talkbass image link Module: https://www.profusionplc.com/parts/icepower700as1 Edited June 17, 2021 by Woodinblack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machines Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 It's a bit like a tractor having more horsepower than an F1 car. It's what happens to that power that is more important than how much is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It rendered OK on my screen when I posted it so give it about zero attention... but hey, you still clicked on it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure why they felt the need to put 2000 on it, its not like you are going to use that on an amp head anyway. I did not realise that and I should add that the 700+ watts from the Bugera, like allmost all amps, is at 4 ohms. I usually use it with an 8 ohm cab so 350 ish into that.

Speaker sensitivity, playing acoustics etc will each have a material impact on the perceived volume that comes out. If the amp plays loud enough for you and the tone is right, buy it. In many ways you are correct.I realy don't need the power my amp puts out and even the most inefficient speaker would be very loud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
