Neues Testcenter in Dresden

Das Zoundhouse von Volker Kaminski hat nun alle realbass-Produkte zum antesten spielbereit.

About Us

The design and engineering of the realbass originate from Germany. All components, the equipment and installation, are manufactured exclusively by domestic partners to the highest quality standards. This allows us to implement ideas consistently, sustainably, quickly and efficiently.

All equipment in the realbass range are conceived to be purely analogue devices and are governed by this philosophy. Economic factors are of less significance than “undistorted tone” in design and production.

Great attention is paid to the weight in the development of the equipment. Its ”Sound” has top priority in this case.

Our own experience gained over many years of playing, in the most varied of configurations, is combined with an equally extensive experience and enthusiasm for electronics.

This results in a lot of Headroom and Reserves that allow you all the possibilities of reinforcing and reproducing the natural sound of your instrument without having to enter into any compromises. This applies equally to both electrical and acoustic instruments.

The realbass range of equipment offers comprehensive and professional assistance to give full Instrument optimum showcasing of your instrument and its sound on any stage and in all appearance situations.

I wish you lots of enjoyment and relaxed successful performances with realbass .

Combos

Good bass amplifiers have always been large and heavy. So far, digital power amplifiers and power supplies combined with small speakers seemed to be the solution. However, this neglected the fidelity of impulses and unchanged sound. The solution to this conflict lies in these two realbass combos. The two objectives are weight reduction and fidelity of sound and impulses. Is that possible? Yes, it is!

Due to the carbon case, there was no need for a tweeter. The realbass Combo is available in several versions, single as well as two-channel and in a lighter version (selection).

Single / Duo

  • single channel (single) / twin channel (duo)
  • gain regulator
  • phantom power (XLR and jack) can be added
  • phase changeover switch
  • microphone and instrument input auto switch
  • very low noise microphone amplifier (XLR)
  • FET input stage (jack)
  • variable LOW-CUT 12dB - 10Hz to 130Hz
  • PAD switch (-20dB)
  • EQ with full parametric mids, true bypass
  • optical compressor (level and threshold), true bypass
  • mute switch (remote jack)
  • audio in, stereo 3.5mm jack, regulated
  • fanless
  • mains unit with toroidal core transformer (1000W peak)
  • line out, active
  • tuner out, active
  • 2 serial inserts with pre / post
  • speaker outpur, 2 x Speakon / 6,35mm jack combi
  • FET end stage, analogue (500W peak)
  • 12“ High-Power speaker
  • dimensions (HxWxD) 45,5 x 45,5 x 38,5 cm
  • weight: 11,6 kg - 14,9 kg

price: 2490,00 € to 3490,00 € incl. 19% VAT

Tops

The logical continuation of both combos is called SOLO TOP. Their amplifying units are an absolute highlight used as heads as well. So the analogous concept is still worth something...

These two devices stand out for their extreme speed and fidelity of sound and demonstrate their strengths with their extensive dynamics during soloistic styles.

Solo Single / Duo

Boxes

All 3 boxes 210, 210H and 112/5 benefit from our new and patented handle system including four readily accessible stainless steel handles on each corner while providing perfect edge protection. All box versions can easily be connected to a second box output of the realbass series.

112/5

A 12” and a 5” – both are high level speakers with great performance (900W RM, 200W RMS) and can hardly be pushed to their limits. They offer extreme headroom in particular for impulses – the secret of good sound – and for acoustic instruments and electric basses. The low frequency limit provides bold persuasive pressure even during a low “H”. It creates a punchy, detailed and balanced sound image of your instruments given any appropriate volume.

  • bass reflex box, passiv
  • 2 high power speaker (12" and 5")
  • 900 W RMS
  • cut-off frenquency < 40Hz .. 15 KHz
  • available impendances 4Ω and 8Ω
  • 6 stepped switchable crossover circuit
  • 2 speakon
  • 4 stainless steel handles
  • 8 rubber stands (on two sides)
  • weight 14,5 kg
  • dimensions (HxWxD) 61 x 48 x 38,5 cm

Price: 1395,00 € incl. 19% VAT.

210 and 210/H

An old concept revisited. The most modern speakers in a light case for optimal double ten fun with or without noise, the “Double 10” at it’s best. Other than expected and better than anticipated.

  • bass reflex box, passiv
  • 2 high power speaker (10")
  • 800 W RMS
  • 210: cut-off frenquency 40Hz .. 6,5 KHz
  • 210/H: cut-off frenquency < 47Hz .. 18 KHz
  • available impendances 4Ω, 8Ω and 16Ω ´
  • 2 speakon
  • 4 stainless steel handles
  • 8 rubber stands (on two sides)
  • 210: weight 16 kg
  • 210/H: weight 16,5 kg
  • dimensions (HxWxD) 61 x 48 x 38,5 cm

Price: 1245,00 € (210) and 1345,00 € (210/H) incl. 19% VAT

Micro 5

Anyone who has played the contrabass in a louder environment knows the problem of bass monitoring. The small box is screwed on a microphone stand and set up next to the instrument at head height. The speaker used is a 5“ broadband neodymium speaker with real 200 W RMS and can simply be plugged into the second box output of the realbass series.

  • 5″ broadband neodym speaker
  • 200W RMS
  • impedance of 8 Ω
  • dimensions (WxHxD) 20 x 20 x 10 cm
  • weight 2,2 kg

price: 295,00 € incl. 19% VAT.
