Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Magellan 800+ is a compact Class-D bass head with 800W available at 4 or 2.67 ohms, and 400W at 8 ohms. Its all-analog signal path combines variable drive, dual contour voicings, a variable 25–120Hz high-pass filter and a four-band active EQ with two sweepable mid bands. Drive and contour switching can be footswitched for changes during a set. Two SpeakON outputs support multiple-cabinet rigs down to a 2.67-ohm load, while the 6.25-pound aircraft-grade aluminum chassis keeps the head easy to transport. XLR direct output, effects loop, tuner output and headphones extend its routing options.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Stage sets requiring footswitch changes between clean response, drive, and either contour voicing.
- Bass rigs using multiple cabinets through dual SpeakON outputs while observing the 2.67-ohm minimum load.
- Studio tracking with the XLR direct output and a separate headphone output.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Speaker systems presenting a total load below 2.67 ohms.
- Players who need more than 400W into an 8-ohm speaker load.
