Peavey Unveils All-New MAX Series Bass Combos

ANAHEIM, Calif.(NAMM Exhibit 5740, Hall B) Peavey proudly announces the new MAXSeries of bass amplifiers, the redesigned lineup of bass combos from the innovation and reliability leader. With power ratings up to 300 watts of power with Peaveys DDT speaker protection and exclusive tone enhancements, the Peavey MAX Series is designed for superior tone, performance and reliability in portable bass amplification.

The Peavey MAX 115, MAX 112 and MAX 110 bass combo amps deliver huge bass tone with exclusive Peavey designs, including unique psycho-acoustic low-end enhancement that adds bass without demanding anything extra from the speakera testament to Peavey's technology-driven reliability. The EQ section includes three-band EQ, a gain boost featuring Peaveys patented TransTube tube emulation circuitry, and switchable presets like Punch, Mid-Shift and Bright.

The MAX 115, MAX 112 and MAX 110 also feature a built-in chromatic tuner with mute, a tuned and ported enclosure, 1/8-inch headphone output and 1/8-inch auxiliary input. The MAX 115 and MAX 112 include an XLR direct output with ground lift, while the MAX 115 has a built-in tweeter that is bypassed when the TransTube gain boost is engaged for a more authentic classic overdrive sound.

The MAX 158 and MAX 126 practice amps are loaded with features that make them ideal for small rehearsals, including TransTube gain boost, multi-band EQ, exclusive DDT compression, headphone output and auxiliary input. The MAX 158 also includes psycho-acoustic low end enhancement and built-in chromatic tuner with mute.
