Warwick BC 40 - 10 / 40 Watt Bass Combo - EU Version

The Warwick Bass Combo series of amps offers a wide range of amp sizes to supply the needs of the entry level player, as well as the gigging professional. All Warwick Bass Combo amps come in bass reflex cabinets for a bigger and punchier sound. The cooling is achieved by using the air circulation in the bass reflex cabinet so fan noise is avoided. The Pre amp is based on Warwick signature low noise Class A circuitry made famous with the Warwick WA amp series. Another very cool feature of the BC series is the dynamic distortion limiting circuitry that maximizes power usage in the amp and minimizes the total harmonic distortion factor. This way, the player can achieve maximum loudness of distortion-free, completely clean loveliness, for the specified power rating.

Great sounding and very affordable bass amplifier

From: Igor Levicki On: 25 Feb 2021

In the sea of class-D bass amplifiers from popular brands which have extremely high rated output power (300W+) but require active cooling using fans, Warwick BC series of bass amplifiers stand out as the last bastion of traditional class-A preamplifiers and class-AB amplifiers -- the kind of amplifiers usually reserved for Hi-Fi audio equipment which produces neutral tone free of noise, hum, and harmonic distortions.

Build quality is very good, the cabinet itself does not seem to exhibit any resonance and the speakers used respond very well over a wide range of bass notes from the lowest B on my Ibanez SRX 355 all the way up to the high end of the scale producing clean and pleasant tone even with all tone controls set to 0.

The only thing I dislike is the blue LED power indicator, it is extremely bright -- almost blindingly so from up close. It might look cool in a nightclub, but if you are sitting say one meter in front of the amp it makes it impossible to look at it without discomfort. Given how blue light is harmful for eyesight it would be nice if Warwick considers making new amplifiers with green or red LEDs, or at least with an option to dim the blue LEDs in the future.
