Hi!
i have an Omni12 with 2 BP102 (4ohm) and i was looking for a nice bass head...
Will the Mb500 be ok for this cab? Is it too much power? BP102 are ranked at 200w each...

MB500 specs
• 500 watts @ 4 ohms, 350 watts @ 8 ohms
• 10dB pad
• Four-band active EQ w/variable contour
• Effects loop and tuner output with mute
• Headphone/line output
• XLR out, pre/post EQ & ground lift switch
• Boost footswitch
• Two speakon outputs
• 10.75x8.5x1.75

No harm in trying it out. You should be able to hear the bp102 getting stressed if you push too hard, turn down and don't do that again.

I have the MB500 squared. I use it at home (I don't gig) and love it with my single J112. Makes more noise than I'll ever need. Should be a perfect match with an Omni 12x210.

Does it have a volume control?
