Hartke B Series
Combo Bass Amplifier Features
The Hartke B Series offers all the newest concepts in state-of-the-art bass amplification at an
extremely affordable price. Here are some of its main features:
• Bipolar circuit design ensures that every nuance of your bass performance is reproduced
faithfully.
• Dual inputs that accommodate a broad range of input levels, so that you can use the B
Series with pretty much any kind of bass, from passive models to those with active circuitry.
It is almost impossible to overload the input of a B Series bass amplifier!
• Three bands of high-quality equalization, allowing you to create a broad range of tonal col-
ors for your bass instrument.
• Line-level effects loop send (Preamp Out) and return (Amp In) jacks that allow you to con-
nect to professional outboard effects processors.
• The B600 and B900 models feature Hartke’s original Kickback bass speaker enclosure
design, allowing the amplifier to be placed flat on the floor or in a tilt-back position for
increased high-end clarity and directionality.
• A separate headphone output which automatically disconnects the speaker output, allow-
ing use as a high-quality practice amp.
• A unique front-panel line-level output for interfacing with PA systems or recording
mixing consoles.
• Included is a matched Hartke 8-ohm speaker mounted in a specially designed cabinet
for clean, crisp sound.
• In the B600 and B900 models, a unique contour filtering system called “Shape” which acti-
vates a multi-band equalization curve specially designed to enhance the sound of the elec-
tric bass. The front panel Shape control enables you to continuously sweep a filter through
various frequency areas in order to customize the effect of the curve to the specific tonal
characteristics of your particular bass instrument.
• A steel grill helps protect the speaker from bumps and bruises when you are transporting
your amplifier.
• Removable power cord supplied with the correct plug for your geographic area.
• Rugged construction makes the B Series eminently road-worthy.
