For you amp modellers userers... CRATE POWERBLOCK

[edder]

Not exactly a NEW product but just chanced upon it.

All you need to do is to plug in your POD, VAMP, wotever into this beast and get a stereo cab.

At this kinda price... why not.

Vox have CHEAP 2 x 12 cabs available. Configure and rewire them for stereo. Or even better. Get 2 cabs. hahaha....

So cheap US99 I'm tempted to get one a futz around with it... arrghhh... control.... control....

Why do edder need another amp when he doesn't even play guitar. 25 marks.

There's a very interesting discussion on the Crate Powerblock design. Apparently it's Class D.

what the heck is class d?

sounds like either

this amp, its so dangerous its...

class d.

woah! :lol:

 

[gsonique]

D = drool

 

[edder]

hahaha.... bugger off! I won't buy it!

but seriously for those modelling guys... (skew me you model meh?) this is something that you can look into.

No power supplies worries as well cos it uses switchmode power aka onespot so you can use it just like that.

150W of pure solid state power.

I can imagine the "cari makan"/"tan chiak" rig already.

Compact guitar, Steinberger Synapse.
1 Pedal board with a Pod on it.
1 Power Block
1 x 12 cab.

Can rule the world already.

i had a chance to try the Power Block @ Davis (List: $350) through a 1X12 cab & it sounds very decent for the money. it would sound superb with the right boosters plugged in.

 

[edder]

I didn't know it was sold in SG by Davis.

Class D amps are THE amps for ultimate portability.

There was a bass amp maker, can't remember the name MANY years back who pioneered this Class D amp for musicians. Excellent for those gigging musicians who needs to bring their own gear.

Yup its a ncie amp. Tempted to get after i finish getting all my pedals for my pod.

Ranking and Music Theme used to have some too. Music Theme ran out, not bringing in any more I think. Ranking might have a couple left. I've been wanting to get one too. Some of these gigs really provide horrid amps, would be great to have a super portable unit to plug into.

 

[j_m_s]

Yup. Then get a pod then youve got a nice amp. btw, amp modeller, where should they be put in your signal chain?

ranking lists this for >$400 which IMO is quite unreasonable... unless there's discounts, of course...
