Gallien-Krueger 1001RB-II Bass Head

Many players want a little growl in their sound, but due to horn distortion, it is hard to get good sounding overdrive from passive full-range systems. The 700RB, 1001RB, 2001RB are bi-amped with a separate 50W amp for driving the horn, so it doesn't distort when you drive the amp hard. As a result, you can get all the growl you want from your lower speakers, while the horn stays clean and articulate. GK amps also put the horn control on the amp front panel, which makes managing your overall sound that much easier Our new Bi-amp feature for the 700RB, 1001RB and 2001RB heads is slightly different than the 800RB. These heads utilize a main woofer amp along with a 50W high frequency amp, which is designed to drive horns only in a bi-amp capable cabinet. A bi-amp cabinet has a special bi-amp input to amplify the horn and the woofers separately which also gives you better separation and clarity between the low and high frequency drivers within a single cabinet. You get more peak power from the woofers since the main amp is not being shared with the horn as it is in passive full-range systems.
