Maker’s wording“A common limitation with some Class D amps is a minimum-recommended load of 4 Ohms. In its simplest setup the Bullhead 3K feeds your input into both power modules allowing you to access both to feed your onstage cabinets. One advantage of having 2 power modules available is the ability to run 2 cabs at 4 Ohms each (one off each module) or multiple cabs at 8 Ohms each. Once we landed on the idea of including access to two power modules, we had even more possibilities open up for how the player can use the amp. We commonly have players with 2 rigs on stage, one for key bass and one for electric bass. With the Bullhead 3K, that same player can run his electric bass through the BH3K front end and into one of the internal 1500w power modules and to his stage cabs. Additionally, he can run his keys rig into the rear amplifier 2 input and access the second power module for his keys stage rig, with each input also having a dedicated XLR output. This same thinking could work for a clean/dirty set up or a modern vintage setup by inserting your favorite tube preamp into amplifier 2 or any 2 channel type of configuration you can come up with. TECH NOTE: The ring on the input jack of the Amplifier 2 input on the back acts like a switch. When a cable is inserted, the internal switching separates the second power module from the front input and allows it to run independently.”
