Laney R500 Richter Bass Combo 500W

Specification

Designed and engineered in the UK, the R500-115 calls on Laney’s 50-year history of bass amp building to provide versatility, portability and reliability to all levels of bass player from rehearsal room to large stage.

POWER AND PORTABILITY

At 23.6kg (52lbs), the R500-115 houses Laney’s ‘R500’ amplifier in portable combo format, loaded with a 15” custom-design speaker plus high frequency horn. Capable of a real 500 watts RMS power, the R500-115 delivers results that stand well-ahead of the competitors in its price bracket.

CONNECTIVITY

An array of bass player-friendly connections is straight at hand: Normal or High jack inputs can be selected depending on the output of the bass used. A balanced XLR D.I. provides direct, mic-free mixer connection when recording or performing live. An Aux input allows play-along to a backing track. A headphone socket allows secluded listening to your sounds when the need arises. An FX loop allows connection of external effects.

The R500-115 is fitted with Speakon connectors to the rear panel, giving secure and safe connectivity to your chosen extension cabinets. Paired with the new Laney R410 and/or R115 speaker cabinets, makes for the perfect extension in those larger performance needs

OWN YOUR TONE

The R500-115 combines flexible tone-shaping with simple interface: Set between conventional Bass and Treble controls is a 10-band Graphic EQ featuring a wide range from 30Hz to 8KHz. This 10 band EQ can also be switched in remotely using a Laney FS1 or FS1-MINI footswitch (sold separately). This is also coupled with Laney’s unique ‘Enhance’ control that dials in increased low-end definition from a single turn, plus a selectable on-board compressor. The R500-115 lets any bass player own their tone!
