  1. This is a preamp for bassists who are looking for crunch and distortion sounds.

    [i][color=#333333][font=Oswald, sans-serif][size=4]The Studio Pre, combining two channels, "clean" and "amp": CLEAN is a pristine direct channel which features a Pure Parametric Filter EQ for fine-tuning your sound to perfection. The AMP channel provides three types of distortion (two tube-driven and one solid state) to mix in with the clean channel. Personalize your sound with precision with two more EQ controls, variable pre-shape filter (VPF) and high pass filter (so you can apply distortion to only the high end), and push-pull knobs give you the ability to store your distortion settings. The professional compressor on the amp channel helps you tame the edges. The preamp's back-end offers three balanced XLR outputs so you can record each channel separately or together.[/size][/font][/color][/i]

  2. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Really variable preamp with a lot of tube sound. With 4 different tube-sound presets! This one comes with a EL84 in the signalpath to simulate a real full tube amp.[/font][/color]

  3. I think it is better to test alternatives like the [url="https://www.disssa.de/reviews/amps/ebs-classic-t90/"]EBS T90[/url] or the [url="https://www.disssa.de/reviews/amps/ampeg-b25b/"]Ampeg B25B[/url]. The B-15 is a nice sounding amp and my "holy grail" of bass-sound. But this amp has one disadvantage: low power.
    The newer [url="https://www.disssa.de/reviews/amps/ampeg-portaflex-pf-50t/"]Ampeg PF-50T[/url] isn´t a alternative to the B-15 sound. That are nice sounding amps with a lot of helpful features, but they sounds in another way as a B-15. Closer in sound is a [url="https://www.disssa.de/reviews/amps/ampeg-portaflex-pf-20t/"]Ampeg PF-20T[/url]. But like the B-15, this amps has less power...

    dis[color=#ff0000]s[/color]sa - I'd love to hear your thoughts on the Fender pre-amp.

    You know this? [url="https://www.disssa.de/reviews/preamps/fender-tbp-1/"]Klick[/url] (sorry, it is only in german. I am looking for someone, you wants translate my reviews...)
    The TBP was one of my first preamps. The Fender TBP-1 is a really good sounding preamp. The 3-band eq is not extraordinary, it is the well known Fender tone stack. I like the "VARI-Q" semiparam. Eq and the "ROOM Balance". That are very good tools for difficult room acoustics. I play the 3-band eq nearly "flat" (2-10-2) and find my sound with the VariQ and the RoomBalance.
    I dont often use the Overdrive-Channel because I am a "clean-tone-player". I Love this Fender clean sound. It is nearly the sound of my vintage [url="https://www.disssa.de/reviews/amps/fender-super-bassman/"]Super-Bassman[/url].

    I have been looking for a good 1u rack mount power amp that is powerful and clean all through the range. I currently use a QSC PLX 2402 2U power amp which fits the bill sound wise but it weighs a ton. How well does the [color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif]Synq 2k2 Power Amp work is it low noise and with a fan quiet etc . I've never heard of them before. [/font][/color]
    [/quote]

    This poweramps use two little fans with a 4 cm diameter. Little fans are louder than bigger fans. I switched the original fans to silent fans from SUNON.
    The synq poweramps are very efficient and powerful amps. I use the 2k2 because of the higher headroom.
    You should look at the [url="https://www.rockshop.de/red-rock-modus-m-4.5"]red rock modus 4.5[/url] power amps. That is a class h poweramps. They sounds a little bit "warmer" than the synqs.

  6. I play a rig with a poweramp:[color=#191919][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][size=4]
