I currently have a blue 5 string and it is magnificent. Interesting to note that Peavey's top of the line Cirrus ended up with the Millennium preamp as most players preferred it.
Had a white 4 string and let it go - very foolish. Balanced well, played great and recorded magnificently.
In addition, when I lived in the USA, I owned a Sarzo and a Cirrus and a T-40 - all of them just great. If I recall, the Millennium is a 35" scale.
Peavey USA offerings are all excellent but their value is affected IMO by the plethora of cheap basses they produce and lack of endorsers and players. If you check the used section at Guitar Centre, they usually have a few USA and prices are going UP!
Markbass combo combinations, advise please

AER is the aspirational answer but at €1500-2000 not practical
EICH do a nice 112 combo but more cash than another !Markbass 121p different sound though
The TC and Ashdown options IMO are Inferior to MB
The fender rumble series might have something for you. They are light,cheap and well reviewed but the 500watt 2x10" looks like the only contender for your needs.
There is an interesting Polish combo at around 500 euros - "hand box"??????? Someone else will fill you in.
Good head and good cab hard to beat - Aguilar, mesa, TC. Barefaced cab or Bergantino etc etc. however, great combo I would like.
The 121p is just so hard to beat!
Good luck and if you find something amazing - let us know!
