KustomDE300HD 300W Tube Hybrid Bass Amp Head
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Kustom’s DE300HD is a hybrid bass head built around a 12AX7 preamp and solid-state circuitry. Its input options accommodate passive and active basses, while Tube Gain, three-band EQ, low and high contour sliders, and master volume provide a broad set of front-panel adjustments. It delivers 300W into a 4-ohm load or 180W at 8 ohms. The rear-panel balanced XLR speaker-emulator output and tuner output add useful routing options for a bass rig.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Driving a 4-ohm bass cabinet or two 8-ohm cabinets wired in parallel.
- Studio bass recording using the balanced XLR speaker-emulator line output.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Speaker setups with a combined load below the stated 4-ohm minimum.
