The AL-MK500 captures the sound of legendary U.K. bassist Mark King.
Ashdown Labs worked in consultation with Mark to build an amplifier that met his requirements for absolute fidelity and clarity, precision tone shaping, and massive power on tap for stunning dynamics. The result is the AL-MK500, a 575W RMS funk powerhouse with low-impedance instrument input, illuminated VU meter, Harmonic Emphasis, 12-band graphic EQ, switchable pre- and post-EQ balanced direct output, tuner output with mute switch, line output, effects loop, and speaker outputs on jack and Speakon connectors. Rackmountable (2RU).
