Laney DB500H – High-power bass head with versatile tone shaping
The DB500H delivers 500 W RMS via a solid-state Class-D power amplifier, offering serious headroom, punchy low end, and dynamic response — suitable for rehearsal rooms, full live stages or studio work.
Dual preamp architecture for FET clarity or tube warmth (or a blend).
Featuring two selectable preamp channels — a clean FET channel and a tube-based channel — the DB500H gives you the choice of clean, defined bass or warm, drive-ready grit. You can even blend both channels using the Mix function for hybrid tones.
Comprehensive tone controls and modern I/O for stage or recording.
A 3-band EQ with selectable mid-voicing curves plus a Tilt “see-saw” control gives deep tonal sculpting — from tight lows to cutting presence. Additional features such as a balanced XLR DI output (pre/post-EQ), FX loop, headphone output, AUX input, tuner output, remote footswitch socket and Speakon/¼″ output make the DB500H a complete, gig-ready bass head for virtually any context.
KEY FEATURES: Laney Digbeth DB500H - 500W Bass Head With FET & Tube-Style Drive
- 500W RMS output – sufficient headroom for rehearsals, large gigs or studio sessions
- Dual-mode preamp (FET & Tube) – offers clean articulation or tube-style drive, or a custom blend for unique tone textures

- Footswitch & external control support – Remote footswitch socket makes channel or preamp switching easy during live performance
