Laney Digbeth Bass Combo 200W RMS 15"
The Laney Digbeth is a compact, road-ready bass combo that delivers professional output without sacrificing portability. At 36.6 lbs with a top-mounted steel-reinforced handle, it moves easily between venues while its Class D amplifier with fully passive convection cooling runs silent—no fan noise to compete with your signal. The dual-channel design gives you flexible tonal options, combining FET and Tube channels with independent control and mix capabilities.
Amplification & Speaker Design
This combo packs 200 watts RMS (400W continuous) through a single 1 x 15" HH Blue professional woofer, capable of sustaining 122 dB SPL continuous and 125 dB SPL peak at 1 meter. The frequency response spans 41 Hz to 18 kHz, delivering tight low-end definition and articulate midrange presence across the full spectrum.
Connectivity & Control
Two independent channels—FET and Tube—each with their own volume and drive controls, allow you to blend or switch between character types via optional FS1-Mini footswitch. A comprehensive EQ section includes bass and treble (±12dB), four-position middle voicing (±12dB), and tilt control, plus a pre-shape switch for tonal sculpting. Inputs cover 6.3mm instrument jack, 3.5mm stereo aux, and 6.3mm FX return; outputs include 3.5mm headphones, 6.3mm FX send, and balanced XLR D.I. (pre-EQ).

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the FET and Tube channels, and when would I use each?
The FET channel delivers punchy, articulate drive ideal for funk and aggressive playing, while the Tube channel provides warm, musical character. You can blend both channels simultaneously via independent volume and drive controls, or switch between them with the optional FS1-Mini footswitch to adapt tone on the fly during a performance or session.
Is 200 watts enough for live gigging, or do I need a bigger amp?
200W RMS through a 15-inch professional woofer is sufficient for most club and theater gigs, delivering 122 dB SPL continuous output. The combo is road-ready and compact, though larger venues or high-noise stages may benefit from external cabinet expansion via the XLR D.I. output.
How portable is this amp really, and can I handle it alone?
At 36.6 lbs with a top-mounted steel-reinforced handle, the Digbeth is designed for solo transport between venues. The Class D amplifier and passive convection cooling (no fan) keep weight minimal while delivering full power without noise, making it genuinely road-friendly for working musicians.
What outputs and connectivity options does it have for recording or running to a PA?
The Digbeth includes a balanced XLR D.I. output (pre-EQ) for clean recording or PA integration, a 6.3mm FX send, 3.5mm headphones jack, and a 6.3mm FX return. The XLR D.I. allows you to capture your tone to a mixing console or interface while your stage sound remains independent.
What EQ controls are available to shape my tone?
You get a pre-shape switch, bass and treble (±12 dB each), a four-position middle voicing section (±12 dB), and tilt control. Combined with the dual-channel design, this gives you extensive sculpting options for everything from tight, defined lows to articulate, present mids.
