bass power amp pedal Jad Freer Coda High Performance Class G Bass Power Amp

DESCRIPTION

The Coda is a high-performance transistor class G power amp, engineered in an extremely lightweight and portable format: 700W @ 4Ohm / 350W @ 8Ohm / 950w @2Ohm that weighs only 7.7 lb [3.5 Kg].

2 Ohm stable, thought to be used with Jad Freer's Capo, any of your favorite preamps, or even latest generation amp modellers such Neural DSP quad Cortex, the Coda is based on full analog technology with headroom to spare. It is capable of delivering high power rating while maintaining an extremely fast, dynamic and musical response even on the bigger stages and demanding situations.

A "must have" for any gigging musician: a big traditional transistor amp’s sonic impact and punchy, detailed sound reproduction, maintaining a portability only prerogative, until now, of class D technology. All this thanks to the use of well-engineered custom components much superior in specs and performances to the off-the-shelf available ones.

The core of the machine is a heavily oversized proprietary switching power supply and a carefully-designed massive heat dissipation system. This power supply can deliver high amounts of current much faster than a traditional transformer-based one, and is the key to significantly reducing the overall weight, dimensions and power consumption at rest, while the heat dissipation system manages to keep high temperatures under control. In aid of the proprietary heatsink it has been engineered an intelligent forced ventilation system, that, following the signal dynamics, allows the amp to work flawlessly in safety, never getting hot and performing dead silent at low volumes or studio applications.

Another great benefit of a well filtered and engineered switching power supply is that it doesn’t generate magnetic fields in the audible bandwidth, unlike the old toroidal PSU that suffer a lot of 50 / 60Hz hum. This allows the Coda to perform with no audible interferences with other devices or pickups, even single coil ones.

A class A, solid state, linear preamp with dedicated volume allows for the correct management of very different signal levels in input to the power section without adding any unwanted color - whether the source is your favorite external preamp or even the natural sound of your instrument. A double speakon-combo power output, a transformer based studio grade D.I. complete the connection possibilities of the device, providing maximum flexibility and easy of use.

Safety and durability are two aspects that Jad Freer has always given great attention to: the Coda, as all other of their products, has many internal protection systems that isolate any small problem letting you finish your performance flawlessly, shutting down the device only before any critical damage will happen, eliminating any risks for the connected equipment.
