Features
The Hartke Systems Model 5000/7000 Bass Amplifiers offer all the newest
concepts in bass amplification. Here are some of their main features:
• Two independent amplifiers within each chassis, with power to spare—in the
case of the Model 5000, 250 watts per channel (into 4 ohms), and, in the
case of the Model 7000, a full 350 watts (into 4 ohms).
• Our unique Transient Attack® circuitry which ensures that every nuance of
your bass performance is reproduced faithfully.
• Two Pre-Amp input knobs, allowing custom blending of tube and solid state
sounds.
• Ten bands of high-quality graphic equalization, allowing you to create a
broad range of tonal colors for your bass instrument. A dedicated in/out
button allows you to preset an equalization curve.
• LEDs that show you the settings of the graphic equalizer in low-light environ-
ments as well as a two-color LED that continuously shows the status of the
compression circuitry in response to your playing.
• Two fully adjustable contour knobs (high pass and low pass), which provide
further control over shaping your bass sound.
• A built-in compressor which not only adds real “punch” to your bass sound,
but also allows you to smooth out volume differences between notes.
• Two independent inputs that accommodate both passive and active bass
guitars.
• Protection relay circuitry that protects connected speakers from dangerous
overloading and also prevents “thumps” when powering on or off.
• Two pairs of dedicated speaker outputs (one for high frequency speakers
and the other for low frequency speakers), along with front-panel Crossover
Frequency and Balance controls.
• A Bi-Amp switch that enables you to activate or bypass the electronic
crossover circuitry.
• Effects loop send and return jacks that allow you to connect to professional
outboard effects processors.
• An electronically balanced direct output that provides a means of routing
signal to professional mixing consoles in both live performance and record-
ing environments. A ground loop switch helps prevent hum or buzz from
entering the signal, and a pre/post switch allows the direct signal to be
derived either before or after the amp EQ section.
• Rugged construction that make both the Model 5000 and Model 7000
eminently road-worthy.
