Concert Bass Amp Specs.
« on: October 30, 2006, 04:31:04 pm »
Any Concert Bass Amp Owner's out there have an owners manual they could copy to me?  I just bought one (had one 30 yrs ago and let it get away). Near as I can tell from brochure on the Unofficial website it is a 2 ohm output. Can anyone confirm that? I would also be interested in what kind of cabs Concert Bass owners are running through.

A Concert will match anything 8 ohms  down to 2 Ohms. I believe the output  spec was  120 watts RMS
at 4ohms. A bit more at 2 ohms ,a bit less at 8ohms.   

I still have one and I was always impressed with how loud this thing could be really cranked,and still
sounded full but clean at high volumes. GREAT amp !  Bought mine new in 1975.

I don't believe I would go below 4 ohms with a Concert Bass,in my opinion the ideal cabinet for the Concert Bass is a 200S cab. with D-140's

1st generation (black and aluminum faceplate w/ distortion knob) Concert Bass amps are rated for 4 Ohm minimum.

2nd generation (all black faceplate, no distortion knob) Concert Bass amps are rated down to 2 Ohms minimum.

I'm thinking of buying one of these-- the one I'm looking at comes with 115RH cabinet.  I haven't actually seen it yet; just online.  Can anyone tell me how large this is?  I use a Sunn Studio amp, which is great, and am thinking of getting the concert amp for my boyfriend, but we have limited space.

Thanks.

I just got some old Sunn paper stuff and included in there is a Concert Bass amp manual. I'll see if it conatins the info you're asking about.
