[quote name='XPAULUSX' timestamp='1304252249' post='1216518'] This is a really nice sounding amp which i was able to get a variety of tones from (once i learnt how to use it properly ) It's 280 Watts at 4ohms, but like all trace gear, this seems to be a conservative power rating. [/quote] I can attest to this, I have the 350W version of this amp. The output is unbelivable; my similarly rated ashdown 'little giant' (a digital amp) flat out isn't even as loud mine with the master set to 1. I'm not exagerrating. The tone is lovely and very versatile. Good luck with the sale,

Think I ended up selling this on eBay. Not like me to not update this thread as sold but will do it now.

This is a few years old now. Was used for a couple of months for domestic gigs, then put into storage. Sadly, never got to be taken abroad. Therefore, it has few surface marks from light use but nothing serious. There's a little ding which I've tried to capture in the photos. Will fit standard Fender basses and has gray fur inside. Still has the key to lock it. £55 o.n.o Would consider a p/x for a decent 5-string only. No other trades considered. Collection only, as can't be bothered to package. Can deliver or meet up within reasonable distance to Enfield / North London or Essex for a fuel cost.

Bought this recently out of curiosity. Was after one about a year ago but they were going for about £250 last year and I didn't want to pay that much. Since then I bought my Trace head and fell in love with it. Then I saw one come up for £125 recently and snapped it up. Its a really good sounding, versatile amp and a bit lighter than my Trace head but I just prefer the sound of my Trace and the Peavey's a bit over-spec'd for a backup amp. Will trade/PX for a very small, lightweight amp to use as a backup. Minimum 250W at 4Ohms. Would consider selling for what I paid, which was £125. Not in a great hurry to sell. Here's some blurb: A late 90's classic solid state solid state pro amp c/w valve preamp on the front end that can can be switched in/out or mixed, I have owned this amp for around 5 years with a an Ashdown 4x10 cabinet(not included but selling in a seperate auction) and although it does have various cosmetic marks this is a fantastic sounding amp .See spec below: Dimensions 4"h X 19"W X 15"D (two rack space) Wattage 500W @ 2 ohm load, 350W @ 4ohm load Effects foot switchable effects loop w/high - low pad Controls pre & gain, ch 1 (tube) gain, ch 2 (trans) master volume, crossover control Other direct low Z out w/ground lift switch and pre/post EQ Condition Not in mint condition, with scratches and bumps and the plastic on the knobs a bit beat-up but everything works as it should and nothing is falling off. Check out the pics.

Zig mate, don't sell this head. You'll regret it.

These are excellent cabs, specially with the EV loaded. Someone buy this.

I have exactly this amp but with the green carpet cover instead of vinyl. It is by far the best amp I've owned, the sound and power is just unbelievable. Observer, don't sell it, you'll be sorry. If you're not sure about the sound, try changing the pre-amp valve. I changed mine for an EH 5751 "Gold", which did wonders. There is nothing out there right now that can compete with this amp in that price bracket, I know because I looked.

Been considering upgrading our PA speakers (Peavey Pro series) Cheers! James[/quote] They're a bit heavier. At a guess, I'd say 5-10Kg more. Still easy to lift and carry.

Will be adding some Peavey bass bins which match these well, soon as I get some pictures of them.

Bought these less than a year ago as a stop-gap until we had enough money to replace our entire PA with a Mackie active system, which we've now done. They are still in excellent cosmetic condition, despite many gigs. Good for all-round PA applications and superb for vocals. [b] 250W, 8Ohms.[/b] [b]£160 ONO[/b] Can be collected from either Enfield or somewhere in Essex. Too expensive to courier but if can meet half-way or drop off for small consideration if a reasonable distance in either county.

This has been running the band's PA for the last couple of years, either for just vocals or occasionally DJ music. Nothing taxing. Bought second hand and rack mounted ever since so in great shape. Would make a great power amp for a bass, as you can use it in bridged mono mode at 4Ohms (up to 2 cabs). Has been used twice a week for those 2 years without fail or trouble of any kind. We're moving to active PA speakers, so this is no longer needed. The new speakers were very expensive, so we want a quick sale hence [b]£250 O.N.O.[/b] (plus £15 delivery). If you pay full price, will include a 4 pole speakon connector, so you can make a bridge cable. Watts per channel: 425 @ 8Ohm, 700 @ 4Ohm, 1200 at 2 Ohm Watts mono Bridged: 850 @ 16 Ohm, 1500 @ 8 Ohm, 2400 @ 4Ohm [list] [*] Exclusive PowerLight power supply for superior bass and lighter weight [*] Ultra-low distortion (0.03% THD at 8 ohms) & studio-quality noise floor (-107 dB) [*] LED indicators include bridge mono and parallel input modes [*] Compact 2 RU, 21 lbs. and 13" deep chassis fits into any rack [*] Class H output reduces AC power draw and heat by 40% [*] Selectable clip limiters and subsonic filters reduce distortion and protect speakers [*] Variable-speed fan for low noise and solid 2 ohm performance [*] Both 1/4" TRS & XLR inputs, Speakon® and shock-proof binding post outputs [/list] all this at [b]9.5 Kg[/b]! Has loads of very useful features, like 'mono mode'.
