paul_5 Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I'm running an Ampeg SVP PRO preamp and an Amp B410HLF cabinet - both of which I love the sound of, but my current power amp (Laney SP300) is only delivering 150W (per side) into my cabinet, and as my cab is 4Ω I can't use the 'Bridge' mode - which would deliver all 300W to a single channel but expects an 8Ω load. What do other BCers use in their separate pre/power setups? Go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Smalls Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 I use a Crown xls 1502 power amp fed from a BBE pre... That puts 1550W bridged into a 4ohm load. Very clean and reasonably priced - with the 2nd LED just about flickering I can drown out guitar and drums! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Dare Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 (edited) eBay is your friend. Any reasonable used PA power amp will deliver bridged into a 4 ohm load. Peavey, Crown and QSC are all reliable choices. Avoid El Cheapos. They generally have crummy power supplies and inadequate protection circuitry and don't like low impedance loads.
