Description

The Peavey Max 300 is a bass combo amp built around dual 10-inch speakers delivering 300 watts of solid-state power in a lightweight construction, the highest-wattage model in the MAX lineup.

The 2x10 configuration and top-of-range power output aim to deliver maximum volume and low-end punch while remaining lighter than a comparable traditional bass combo.

The Randall RB100 is a 100-watt bass combo amplifier built for straightforward, reliable bass amplification at practice and small-to-mid venue gigging volumes. Part of Randall's bass amp lineup, it offers players dependable power and tone-shaping in a self-contained combo format.
