The Reidmar 250 is the first lightweight bass head from EBS Professional Bass Equipment. The focus has been on developing a lightweight bass head with the same tonal quality as EBS renowned solid state amps. The result is a light bass head offering natural uncolored tone with a clear definition throughout the whole scale which is believed to make the EBS Reidmar 250 stand out in the competition.
Natural Sound
EBS philosophy has always been to make equipment that let the character of the instrument and the personality of the musician shine through. To make a D-class bass amp meet that standard is a real challenge due to the nature of digital power amps. However, the EBS Reidmar 250 shows anything is possible with clever engineering!
The Nature of a Beast
The EBS Reidmar provide a powerful and defined sound at all levels and when pushed to the limit it provides a natural and useful amp distortion, like a nice Drive, which extend the possibilities of using the amp in numerous musical contexts and take full advantage of all the 250 Watts.
Look and Feel
EBS never have had the intention to make the worlds lightest and smallest amp, but a light bass head that look, feel and sounds like a bass amp while not falling off the cabinet at higher volumes. With the Reidmar 250 that mission is completed!
Technically Speaking
Anyone familiar with EBS bass amps will feel at home with the Reidmar 250. The renowned built in compressor and the 4-band EQ-section with Bright and Notch filters makes sense and reminds a lot of the HD350 and TD660’s layout. The amp also feature an Effects loop (send and return), Balanced XLR-out for live and studio use (with pre/post EQ switch and Ground Lift), Line out, Headphones out and Speakon speaker output. The amp processes the sound through an analog preamp with a D-class power amp providing 250 W RMS @ 4 ohms load. Weight is 3.2 kg (7.1 lbs). The EBS Reidmar is Designed and Developed in Sweden by EBS Sweden AB.
Perfect Companions
The EBS Reidmar 250 matches perfectly well with a couple EBS ClassicLine mini size 110 or 112 cabinets (see picture above), or the NeoLine mini size cabinets. Or any single full size EBS cabinet of choice rated at 4 Ohms. The Reidmar 250 starts shipping from Sweden in November with a world wide release and availability from Winter NAMM in January 2012.
