Peavey adds more to bass amp range

Following hard on the launch of its 1000W bass amp, Peavey’s new MiniMega and MiniMax bass amp heads have now arrived in the UK. 

The MiniMega has 1000-watts of Peavey tone in a compact, highly portable package with its smaller brother, the MiniMAX offering 500-watts in a compact unit weighing only 5.6lbs.

The MiniMega features an effects loop, gain control, crunch button, tuner output and a 4-band EQ with Punch and Bright switches and semi-parametric mids. Peavey’s exclusive Kosmos bass enhancement function provides increased bass impact for extra punch, while the psychoacoustic low-end controls add more bass without overloading speakers. It also boasts customisable control surface lighting to the MiniMega to allow players to choose how they want the amp to appear on stage.

The 500-watt MiniMax features a 3-band with Punch, Mid-shift and Bright controls to provide an array of tone shaping options. A pre-gain control with TransTube gain boost allows a tube-like crunch sound to be added. It also benefits from the psychoacoustic low-end bass enhancement found in the MiniMega. 

Both models feature Peavey’s DDT speaker protection technology and come with carry bags. All of the connectivity necessary to join to sound reinforcement systems and patch in effects is built into both amps, making them suitable for use in live and studio environments. 

The MiniMega retails at £640 with the MiniMax available for £365. Both are available to order now from the Barnes and Mullins sales team and through their online portal. – http://www.bandm.co.uk
