Best Small Footprint Amp?

[Downunderwonder]

I think the footprint of the BT is a red herring. It's barely bigger than any other 12" cab, only maybe 3'' wider than a 210 with a shelf port sat on its end.

 

You really just want something semi disposable to use on this gig.

 

There is a GK212 500w combo for 540 quid in the classifieds.

Wear shoes one size smaller than usual - smaller footprint sorted.

Yep certainly to an extent, although even a few inches width and a few kg's lighter makes all the difference to how easy it is to get through narrow doorways etc, so would like smaller if possible, but that might be the compromise.

 

There's a nice Hartke HD500w combo for £365 on eBay, or a small stack with 2 X 112 and a 500w head for £550 which would also do the job.

 

You and @Merton may have convinced me to relook at Barefaced though, but maybe only one rather than a stack.  If I could find a single BF 210S second hand and pair it with a second hand RM500/800, then whilst it would be slightly over budget it would absolutely fit the bill in every other department.

 

Thanks guys!
