Hello,
I am currently looking into replacing my Hartke VX2500 with a more powerful (but hopefully not too much bigger) setup.
I play in a covers band that plays rock/soul/pop in medium to large pub gigs and we don't normally play with bass bins so the amp has got to shift a lot of air itself.
I have viewed online (but haven't went and played because of my rural location)
- Roland D 400w 2 x 10
- Markbass 500w 2 x 10
- Ampeg B2 450w head with ampeg b series 4 x 10 cab
- Orange 500w head orange 2 x 12 cab
Being quite new to bass playing I don't really have a clue what would be best for my situation.
My budget is about £1200 , not fussed if new or second hand.
Any recommendations of any of these products or anything else you can think of for my situation would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply.
Yes I do like the hartke sound although I have only played a Carlsbro amp to compare it to. I have received a few bad comments but I suspect that might be abit of snobbery towards it ? I know someone with a tc 4x10 rig and it doesn't really cut throughwell in my opinion so what's what made me think to just go powerful and compact.
I like the look of the EBS head and supertwin cab, I will have a look to see if I can find any of them second hand
