NancyJohnson Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 Just ordered the 600w version. Wife chipping in so it'll form part of my birthday stuff, so I won't actually get my hands on it for five weeks. 3 Quote
BlueMoon Posted October 23, 2024 Posted October 23, 2024 I'm curious and interested in your opinions and set up when you get it. Congrats! I am exploring a variable pedal preamp set up with a small power amp for a few of the small gigs we do. The Baby Sumo is a contender. Others include a Quilter or HB Bass Block in a similar - but not pedal-based - approach. I've been down the HX Stomp rabbit hole and what was on offer was just too much for my needs. At least I now know that! Quote

At least I now know that! I'll admit I've never truly been 100% happy with stock amps giving me the tone I truly desire and I thought the Darkglass AO900 was going to be a one box solution, but it's too aggressive and totally the drive element is different to what I'm looking for. I've run various pre > Poweramp setups over the years, so (for now) this is my desired route (again) albeit in a smaller box. I was toying with the 1000w version, but that would have been a bit of a vanity purchase, headroom aside, I don't need that amount of power; I've never taken the Darkglass over 40%! 1 Quote

Home use, more than capable. The amp seems happier/louder with a Barefaced Big One (uncertain what the ohm rating is) over a single Darkglass 1x12. Maybe a pair would be louder. 1 Quote
