Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Built as an 800W Class D bass head, the Legacy 800 combines four-band EQ, tone-shaped overdrive, and Bump, Contour, and Presence voicing filters. It covers clean, clear, biting sounds as well as saturated overdrive, with several controls available directly at the amp. The balanced DI can be switched before or after EQ, while the effects loop, aux connection, and headphone connection support a more complete rig setup. Load capacity selection accommodates 2-, 2.7-, 4-, and 8-ohm cabinet configurations.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Recording or live signal chains needing a balanced DI before or after EQ.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Buyers seeking a combo amplifier format rather than a separate bass amp head.
