Ashdown Little Giant 1000 (Nad)

Super happy with this little thing, even at 8ohms it was plenty loud into a 410 for a back line only gig tonight 

 

I’ve actually found a second as I wanna start taking advantage of the dual power Amps in a project where I can run alot of cabs

Love these Amps one will def split back to being a backup as ill hopefully soon get hold of an Abm 600 or 1200 but they sound great.

Still using my Little Giant 1000 as my main amp, with a Superfly 500 as backup.

 

They both work well with my two Yamaha 2 X 10" 4 ohm cabs and although the cabs are rated at only 250 watts RMS each, I've never had any problems with the Little Giant overpowering the cabs, as there's plenty of volume on tap without needing to take things to extremes. I just use my ears😋

 

By the way, I've never witnessed the built-in cooling fan on the Little Giant running other than briefly at startup, so my solution to the legendary heat generated by both these amps and keep them reliable (so far) has been to place them on top of a laptop computer cooling pad.  The fans in the cooling pad are illuminated too, which looks pretty cool and I just power the cooling pad from an old phone charger.

Same here with the fan

Just spotted this thread. 

I have one, serviced by Ashdown FOC when I first got it. That's not uncommon for the first class service that  Ashdown provide. 

TBH I've never used it and would be happy to find someone who would put it to good use.
