zZounds Gear Experts Say...
5-band EQ section. Fan cooled.
Overview
The MAG C115-300 1 x 15 in. combo features a potent new fan-cooled 307 watts RMS power section. Rotary bass, middle and treble controls are supplemented by smaller rotary controls providing 15dB of cut and boost at 220Hz and 1.6kHz, providing a comprehensive 5 band EQ section. Additionally, front panel push switches for Bright and Deep settings provide instant access to attacking and warm, rounded sounds respectively and, on the subject of low-end response, the trademark Ashdown sub-harmonic generator is ready and able to deliver truck loads of earth moving tone if called upon.
Inputs are provided for active and passive instruments and the front panel also features an effects send and return, a tuner/line output and a balanced DI output for direct connection to a mixing console.
All MAG combos have extension speaker outputs and are loaded with Ashdown BlueLine speakers for exceptional attack, clarity and low-end performance. Protection is provided by tough black carpet covering and new steel grilles, while the amplifier chassis is constructed from light yet strong, heat-dissipating magnesium alloy for 'roadie-free' portability. And, of course, the famous Ashdown VU meter remains central to the cool look of these great, value for money bass amplifiers.

forever.... or until it runs to the end of its life
Sound
The sound is very classic, I mean very bassy seeing how it has a 15" in it. You won't find a very trebely high (but your playing bass not the violin) it has a great low end! sounds amazing, i like to use a 410 cab beneath it just for more sound at gigs but this amp is on that border line of needing to be mic'ed depending on the style and size of place
Features
I like the fact that it has all of the things you need from FX send and return to the 5 band EQ and i like the push switches, the low push switch is awsome
Ease of Use
PLUG IT IN, i got this amp as an expierementalist because i played an ashdown at a local dealer and i liked the retro look and compared to most heads and rackmounts its very easy to use. all you really need is a wall socket and a cable from your bass to the amp
Quality
1-10? i would give it a 9.75647474 because i like amps that use footswitches but thats just a tripping hazard anyways. by the ay this combo amp was rated #1 in its price-range. I gave it a 9 because it would look nicer in the rugged black leather instead of carpet
Value
well worth my hard earned money!
value will out beat any other amp you find in this price-range
