Dial the Peavey NitroBass sound in on your own rig
USA-built solid-state bass head rated roughly 170W at 8 ohms, 300W at 4 and 450W at 2, with a three-band active EQ, a shiftable midrange, a contour control, Peavey's DDT speaker protection and an XLR DI. Voice is loud, clean and forthright with a firm low end and an aggressive presence region; the contour control scoops the mids for a modern slap/rock voice, while flat it is punchy and mid-present in the way '90s Peavey bass gear generally is. Discontinued, superseded by the MAX heads.
