The other night I sat in with a band looking to do something different by using a keyboard/bass combo player. I showed up at the large house for rehearsal and then looked at the long noarrow stairway up to the rehersal room. I had my JBL515xt in the car but it would of been cumbersome up and down those narrow stairs. They told me I could use a small bass amp they kept up there. OK I'll try it/
Peavey MAX 115. 15" w/horn, 300 watts in a compact cabinet. Set everything flat, no time to mess with it and we started. Tilted it back against a wall so I could hear better and I was impressed. Doing LH/bass and RH Hammond and Piano it really kicked and sounded good. I know a lot of you are off regualr amps anymore but thought I'd pass this along. For $300 you could even use it as a sub woofer with the added bass boost effect it includes. Gets a lot of positive reviews on different sites.

Bill you know my thoughts about Keyboard amps compared to PA speakers..

Keyboard amps are designed for keyboards... you have a full range and no poor bass response (most PA's go down to 60}.. average keyboard amps down under 50..

As long as I still have wheels on my 70 pound keyboard amps , I will continue to use them,,

Still looking forward to a job I could use all four of mine... hasn't happened yet... two have been more than enough..

A super large airplane hanger size hall with about 3-500 people might call for 4 of those. I don't think you'll ever run into a situation where you would need more than two.
I like the feeling of power a good keyboard amp gives, especially the bass out of that little Peavey, but you still need something up in the air for vocals and to cover the room. and the weight, we're all trying to eliminate that.

I'll use my Alto kick 15 once or twice a year for very small rooms, usually for instrumental only though it has 4 channels including xlr input. I added wheels. Has integrated kick back stand, 44 lbs, on board Alexis effects, bi-amped 200w continuous/400w peak.

I was looking at that amp a while ago and they discontinued it. The cloest thing is the Behringer KXD15. I'd like to have a 15" keyboard amp in case I run into another situation where I'm pushing LH ( or pedal ) bass. PA cabinet will do it but its really not the same.

I think they're out of business. They were popular for a time.

Didn't know that wow.... Maybe you could pic up a used one cheap.....

I think mine went from me to Hank, then maybe to Gary D. They were sure great in their time.
