They deliver a powerful, very natural and acoustic sound. The unusual downfiring woofer design produces an omnidirectional output of the the lower frequencies to achieve a natural reproduction of a bass instruments&#8217; sound. The high impedance input is suitable for piezo pickups; external preamps are not needed.<br \/>\nThe Contra has one channel, the Coda models offers an additional microphone channel with phantom power. For guitarists, all amps are offered with additional reverb effect.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.doublebassguide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/ten2_sm.jpg\" align=\"right\" \/><strong>Coda<\/strong><br \/>\nType: combo; same as above, but dual channel (for e. g. microphone; with phantom power)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Clarus<\/strong><br \/>\nType: amp head<br \/>\nSize: 10.2&#215;8.2&#215;3.5 inches, Weight: 5 pounds<br \/>\nsame as Contra\/Coda, but a amp head without speaker enclosure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Focus<\/strong><br \/>\nsame as Clarus, but 800W<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ten<\/strong>2<br \/>\n2 x 10 Combo, 800W, with removable head<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.acousticimg.com\/\">www.acousticimg.com <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Contra Type: combo, single channel Power Rating: 400W Drivers: 10&#8243; downfiring (!) woofer, 5&#8243; midrange drive, 1&#8243; Tweeter (with on\/off switch), Three-way sealed speaker System Features: Molded Polymer Enclosure, Three-Band EQ Preamp Section, Combo Jack Input (Either 1\/4 in or XLR), Phantom Power on XLR Input, Input and Master Level Controls, Effects Loop with Return [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/doublebassguide.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/77"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/doublebassguide.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/doublebassguide.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doublebassguide.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doublebassguide.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=77"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/doublebassguide.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/77\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/doublebassguide.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=77"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doublebassguide.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=77"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doublebassguide.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=77"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
