Taurus Amps Launches the Qube-350 Acoustic

Taurus Amps Launches the Qube-350 Acoustic

An amp designed for both acoustic and electric basses that features a subsonic filter.


A microphone or piezo pickup can be use to amplify the instrument. Each source can be connected to independent channel and at the same time both of them can be mixed. Two different instruments can also be connected to the amp's channels at the same time and used simultaneously. Each channel is designed with a separate tone correction and GAIN control, which gives flexibility in setting of expected tone of the instrument. The tone correction is transparent/neutral, without any "underlines" so that exact sound of the instrument can be reproduced.

Features

  • Power output: 350W RMS / 4ohms, 200W RMS / 8 ohms
  • XLR inputs: 100 kohms (balanced) suitable for microphone or instrument with balanced output.
  • JACK inputs: 1Mohm (unbalanced) - universal, suitable for instruments with active and passive pick-ups.
  • PHANTOM - 48V condenser microphones power supply
  • 2 channels: A and B with separate tone and dynamics adjustment.
  • Subsonic filter - cuts the signal band below 40Hz on the preamp's inputs
  • Effect loops: SEND / RETURN serial loop
  • LINE-OUT - line output with cabinet simulation.
  • GROUND LIFT - circuit switch on the linear output
  • Power amplifier overload LED indicator
  • Power amplifier clipping LED indicator
  • Power selector 230V / 50Hz - 115V / 60Hz
  • PROTECTION: thermal, short-circuit and overload protection
  • Overall dimensions: 83 x 225 x 180 mm
  • Weight: 2.0 kg

Beauty and sweet sonority elevate a simple-to-use, streamlined acoustic and vocal amplifier.

An EQ curve that trades accuracy for warmth. Easy-to-learn, simple-to-use controls. It’s pretty!

Still exhibits some classic acoustic-amplification problems, like brash, unforgiving midrange if you’re not careful.

Save for a few notable (usually expensive) exceptions, acoustic amplifiers are rarely beautiful in a way that matches the intrinsic loveliness of an acoustic flattop. I’ve certainly seen companies try—usually by using brown-colored vinyl to convey … earthiness? Don’t get me wrong, a lot of these amps sound great and even look okay. But the bar for aesthetics, in my admittedly snotty opinion, remains rather low. So, my hat’s off to Taylor for clearing that bar so decisively and with such style. The Circa 74 is, indeed, a pretty piece of work that’s forgiving to work with, ease to use, streamlined, and sharp.

The evolution of Electro-Harmonix’s very first effect yields a powerful boost and equalization machine at a rock-bottom price.

A handy and versatile preamp/booster that goes well beyond the average basic booster’s range. Powerful EQ section.

Can sound a little harsh at more extreme EQ ranges.

Descended from the first Electro-Harmonix pedal ever released, the LPB-1 Linear Power Booster, the new LPB-3 has come a long way from the simple, one-knob unit in a folded-metal enclosure that plugged straight into your amplifier. Now living in Electro-Harmonix’s compact Nano chassis, the LPB-3 Linear Power Booster and EQ boasts six control knobs, two switches, and more gain than ever before.
