The purpose of this thread is to provide a general reference point for bass amps (head units) and cabs/stacks where people can post the amp (head)
they own and the Cab they own, or the combination (combo unit they own)
The question Section shall be broken down into 3 categories:
Category 1: Bass Combo Units
Category 2: Bass Amp/Head Units
Category 3: Bass Cabinet/Cab Units
Hopefully the following questions should cover sufficiently which Equipment is good for what type of style of play and style/type of music they are best suited to. (Please do not post if you see a certain amp/cab/combo type has already been covered unless your opinion differs greatly enough to warrent it)
PLEASE post under which category your equipment falls into, i.e. if you have a amp/head unit and a cabinet/cab please answer the questions relating to each under the appropriate category headings.
Category 1 Questions (Combo Units)
1. Name of Unit Brand (e.g. Ampeg, Peavey)
2. Product Name (e.g. Peavey Basic 112)
3. Speaker Components (e.g. 1X15 inch Woofer & 2X Tweeter)
4. Wattage & Ohms (e.g. 100W at 4ohms, read the back of your amp)
5. Operational Frequency (e.g. 50/60hz)
6. Tone Treble Range (holding of tone in treble range)
7. Tone Mid Range (holdng of tone in mids range)
8. Tone Bass Range (holding of tone in bass range)
9. Style/s of music best suited to this Brand of Amp (e.g. Rock, jazz etc)

Category 2: Bass Amp/Head Units
1. Name of Unit Brand
2. Product Name
3. Wattage & Ohm Rating (e.g. 1000W RMS @ 2 Ohms, 400W RMS @ 4 Ohms)
4. Frequency Operation Range (e.g. 20Hz to 20 000Hz/20Khz)
5. Basic Features (e.g. 5 Band Equilizer, 2 Output Ports)
Category 3:
1. Name of Unit Brand
2. Product Name
3. Wattage & Ohm Rating (e.g. 500W RMS @ 4 Ohms)
4. Frequency Operating Range (e.g. 38Hz to 15 000Hz/15KHz)
4. Speaker Components (e.g. 4X10inch Woofers & 1X Horn/Tweeter)
5. Box/Cab Type (e.g. Closed, Vented, Band Pass. Not Necessary)
6. Dimensions (e.g. width=3ft, height=5ft, depth=4ft, include measurement type i.e. feet, inches, meters, centimeters, millimeters)
