Description
There’s no rule that says a bass head has to weigh a ton to hit hard. The Peavey MiniMAX proves it, packing 500 Watts RMS into 4 ohms inside a chassis that tips the scale at just 5.6 lbs. Load it in a gig bag, sling it over your shoulder, and forget you’re even carrying an amp — until you plug in and remember exactly why you brought it.
Peavey’s psychoacoustic low-end enhancement is the real trick here: it fattens up your bottom end without dumping extra strain on your speakers, so you get that felt-in-the-chest weight without the DDT protection circuit having to bail you out every five minutes (though it’s there if you need it). The pre-gain control with TransTube gain boost lets you dial in anything from clean and round to a gritty, tube-flavored growl, and the 3-band EQ — with Punch, Mid-shift, and Bright controls — covers everything from vintage thump to modern slap tone.
Built-in chromatic tuner with speaker/DI mute means you can tune silently between songs without an extra pedal cluttering your board. Round back, the connectivity is all there for real gig work: direct output with ground lift and pre/post switch, effects loop, 1/8″ aux in, 1/8″ phones out, and both active and passive inputs.
