AMP is an incredibly flexible, state-of-the-art Bass Amplifier,
designed to deliver maximum performance, yet simple and intuitive to operate. The B
|
AMP
takes a completely new approach to bass amplification by considering and including the
speaker cabinet’s response and its environment as part of the amplification signal path. No
other bass amplifier on the market has the ability to manage speaker and system performance
like the B
|
AMP. This is accomplished through our Profile EQ system along with many other
important and useful design features including:
• DSP, Embedded System Controlled, Bass Amplifier
• LCD Display
• Multifunction Tone Controls; 4-Band EQ w/ Adjustable frequency range
o BASS: +/- 9dB Variable from 40Hz to 120Hz
o LMID: +/- 9dB Variable from 150Hz to 800Hz
o HMID: +/- 9dB Variable from 800Hz to 3kHz
o TRBL: +/- 9dB Variable from 3kHz to 9kHz
• Programmable Filters
o Programmable bright switch: +3dB to +12dB in 1dB increments, variable from
2kHz to 10kHz in 500Hz increments
o Variable High-Pass Filter (VHPF): Adjustable from 30Hz to 80Hz in 2Hz
