Title: GK 700rb and BBE 362
Post by: eligilam on February 15, 2010, 08:40:22 AM

Hi all,
 
I've got a GK 700rb and am contemplating getting a BBE 362 (or 482i)...anyone out there know the best way to get these two peices of gear hooked together?  I'm currently running the GK head straight into a Neo 4 x 10 cab, but would like the BBE incorporated as well.  
 
Thanks in advance for your help.

If your GK has an effects loop, or pre out, pwr in, either would be a good insert point. In my experience, the BBE works well in between the preamp and the power amp. I also belive the owners manual will recommend the same.

You could hook them up through the effects send and return. You might want consider their pro line instead and benefit from   the +4dBu gain  benefits in the 882. The 2 that you mention are -10. But before you do that check with GK  to see if they can do that gain in the effects loop at low distortion  . You could ultimately have lots more head room at +4dBu.
