EBS Adds 1×15″ Combo to Magni 502 Series Amps
EBS has expanded its Magni 502 series of bass combo amps with a 1×15” model. Like its 210 predecessor, the new amp is a superlight combo featuring a wooden cabinet with front and rear porting plus a neodymium speaker to keep the weight down.
The Magni 502 115 has a tweeter in addition to its 15-inch speaker. Its circuitry is based on the company’s Reidmar 502 and carries on many of the same features. Its preamp section has a four-band EQ with sweepable mids, a Character filter, and a compression knob.
The rear panel has an effects loop, a headphone output, a line out, and an XLR-balanced DI output. EBS also included an extra speaker output, which can handle an extension cab down to 4 ohms adding up to a total workload of 2 ohms. All in, the amp can pump 500 watts.
The EBS Magni 502 115 is available now for $1,549.
