The Hartke Systems Model 5000 Bass Amplifier offers all the newest concepts in bass amplification.
Features
Two independent amplifiers within each chassis, with power to spare - a full 250 watts (into 4 ohms).
Hartke's unique Transient Attack¬ circuitry ensures that every nuance of your bass performance is reproduced faithfully.
Two Pre Amp input knobs allow custom blending of tube and solid state sounds.
Ten bands of high-quality graphic equalization allow you to create a broad range of tonal colors for your bass instrument. A dedicated in/out button allows you to preset an equalization curve.
LEDs show you the settings of the graphic equalizer in low-light environments, and a 2-color LED continuously shows the status of the compression circuitry in response to your playing. Two fully adjustable contour knobs (high pass and low pass) provide further control over shaping your bass sound.
A built-in compressor not only adds real "punch" to your bass sound, but also allows you to smooth out volume differences between notes.
Two independent inputs accommodate both passive and active bass guitars.
Protection relay circuitry protects connected speakers from dangerous overloading, and prevents "thumps" when powering on or off.
Two pairs of dedicated speaker outputs (one for high frequency speakers and the other for low frequency speakers), along with front-panel Crossover Frequency and Balance controls.
A Bi-Amp switch enables you to activate or bypass the electronic crossover circuitry.
Effects loop send and return jacks allow you to connect to professional outboard effects processors.
An electronically balanced direct output provides a means of routing signal to professional mixing consoles in both live performance and recording environments. A ground loop switch helps prevent hum or buzz from entering the signal, and a pre/post switch allows the direct signal to be derived either before or after the amp EQ section.
Rugged construction makes the Model 5000 eminently roadworthy.

Hartke Model 5000 Bass Amplifier Head Reviews
10 out of 10
"Whether it's warm and subtle or bright and slappy, this is the one."
The Hartke 5000 has great versatility. Built in EQ, Tube amp similator and compressor. Great for recording or on the road. Plenty of power let's the audience feel your bass.

"I buy it again."
Feature:
It abounds with features to taylor your tone. The compressor isn't really that great though.
Quality:
This thing is rugged. I have hauled it everywhere and it still plays very reliably. Mine is about 5 years old now and it still has the orginal preamp tube! The power LED keeps coming out of the hole so I finally had to superglue it in...
Value:
I think that one could get a better amp head for about the same price.
Desirability:
It's functional.
Sound:
The fan makes it too noisy to record with, and in quiter situations you must make sure to turn it off before leaving it.
Support:
I had to contact them once because I punched a hole in one of my speakers... I contacted them by email and they responded within a day or two.
Overall:
Overall, I have been pleased with it. It has never failed me and I have always had a tone I was happy with (maybe not my dream tone.)
