DaleASmith Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Couldn't find a thread on these ( apologies if there is one ) https://ashdownmusic.com/collections/rootmaster-evo-iii These look like a great halfway point between budget Class D and Full scale ABM. Speaker sim DI is a nice touch. Anyone tried one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramsay777 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 I don't think they've been released yet. Im keeping an eye out, there was a little bit of discussion in the Ashdown ABM thread. They look great, seem to sound good and have some very useful features over an ABM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaleASmith Posted April 9 Author Share Posted April 9 Agree. Think Ashdown missed a trick on their latest Tube Preamp. Speaker sim DI outputs are common place now. Even if it is analogue, it’s a good feature that can’t be that expensive to implement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machines Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 I have the EVO II and am not quite sure I can justify the upgrade cost for the EVO III. It definitely looks great, but beyond the cab sims and cosmetic changes - the EVO II is already pulling it's weight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 I really like the idea of the cab-sim DI, great get a really near approximation of your on-stage sound through FOH. Am assuming Ashdown have voiced it like their own cabs (which I really like). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously its not IR, so not sure how much it will sound like the real thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ossyrocks Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 I'm looking at these too. I thought I had settled on amps (hey ho), but I'm still not quite there. Bax are doing a pre-order of the 500w for a very good price. https://www.bax-shop.co.uk/bass-guitar-amplifier-head/ashdown-rm-500-evo-iii-bass-amplifier-head Rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
