    I have both: Seymour Duncan PS170 (ICEPower) and TC BAM200. Unlike the PS170, BAM200 is tailored for bass guitar. With all controls at 12 o'clock it has a pronounced mid-range dip with boosted low and high end. To get something close to a flat response you need to set with Bass at 10 o'clock, Mid at 3:30 and High at 10 o'clock. That provides a response that's flat to +- 1db from 30 Hz. to 10 KHz. Also note that the BAM 200 has a lot more gain than a dedicated power amp. Set the Kemper monitor out at around -30 db and run BAM200 gain at around 10 o'clock. Set BAM volume to suit.

    thats interesting, i did install an icepower 200 recently so was able to move my Bam200 on. I thought the icepower sounded a bit more closer to what things should be, but i didnt use your flat eq at the time for the bam. Either way great options to have at an affordable price

    I have a powerhead kpa. I’m thinking about putting two Kones in my Mesa vertical 2x12 cab.


    Has anyone done this with a real and been happy with the results? Obviously the Mesa only gives me the UK V30 sound but curious if I’d like the cab as a converted FRFR cab.


    Is it simply plug and play to install the Kones or is soldering involved? Is there any other parts I’d need to buy to install them?

    just like any other modern speaker, you can just slide the spade terminals on

    Howdy folks!


    So I’m intrigued by the Kab+Icepower option. If you mount the icepower in the Kab, how do you handle the power source? Do you have to install a mains jack to get power to the amp?


    If anyone has given this a try I would be interested to hear what the install procedure was like. Can’t decide if I make a Franken-Kab or just cool my GAS and wait on the official powered version...

    yes you need a power socket in the cab panel. Some of us done this recently in the kone thread on here, has all you need. You dont know how long the official power kab will be, this is fairly simple and cheap


    Kone & Kabinet Q&A

    No, AC connection is other connector, is it this but on off Thing maybe ?

    J4 is 'auto start' according to the diagram on my ebay auction. i just thought it odd that its on both board pics here but not mentioned for installation

    im waiting for my cable kit to arrive from china, i notice you guys have a black wire looped in J4, but not mentioned above. What is that connection? Also is it preferred to have the input jack and AC socket a good distance from the circuit board? thanks

    ICEPower in an enclosed cabinet still has a thermal question.

    If you are in your bedroom and would not mind a rack unit look at the Palmer Macht 402. It is around $420.00 U.S.

    Yes one could DIY ICEPower modules for at least 1/2 the price.

    i actually have the bam 200, im curious of any tone differences as the bam has eq and icepower doesnt. Also its one less box to hook up

    do the iec connectors need a power switch, or is the amp unpowered until the kemper is switched on? also where is your iec ground running to under the board? thanks. Mine arrives tomorrow :)

    Do the icepower amps sound any better due to them having no EQ?I have a bam200 which is great but would love to hear opinion on those who have tried both, seeing as they seem fairly easy to install

    Active CLR cab, original version. Had for many years but barely left the house so in very good condition. I dont play out live, so a bit overkill for me powerwise.

    Incredibly flat PA in a cool looking traditional guitar cab form factor. Dont seem to be currently available either so heres one up for grabs
