(almost) everything you will ever need
delpino 12.12.2024
I bought this amp a couple of months ago and I absolutely love it.
I wanted a clean amp that was easy to transport and this one allowed me to leave my pedals at home. I can have everything I need in my backpack!
The sound is great, very clean and defined. And it also looks cool! The very large selection of effects will have you playing around for months. The configuration and integration with the app, either PC, tablet or phone is simple and works great. I still think my pedals are a bit easier to set having real buttons and knobs, making it easier for me to get the sound I want. But overall I am VERY satisfied with this amp.

Better than Swiss knife

I was shocked when it came out. And now I got it.
You dot need your full rig anymore, only your bass and a couple of cables. It's very small and lightweight. Tuner seems to be complicated but after the first try you can totally understand how to use it. Presets are super simple and the sound is as good as analog units this thing emulates.
So, thanks to Darkglass and Thomann for such a great product!
10 stars out of 5!

Der BassAmp für alle Fälle
Bastie aus Berlin 08.04.2022
Vorne weg: Ich bin absoluter Darkglass Fan👍🏼
Der Amp ist absolut Klasse!

Die Verarbeitung ist wie gewohnt 1. Sahne.

Die Digitalen Soundmöglichkeiten sind nahezu grenzenlos…

Die Digitalen Darkglass Pedale die man dort findet klingen 1 zu 1 wie sie Analogen!
(Ich die alle zum vergleichen)

Absoluter Kauftipp!

Darkglass = gwarancja pełni zadowolenia
Dandi 28.04.2023
Zauroczony produktami Darkglass kilka lat temu, po zaprezentowaniu przedmiotowego heada zbyt długo się nie zastanawiałem. Exponent 500 używam od roku po przesiadce z AO900. Efekty overdrive brzmią tak blisko analogowych odpowiedników jak to tylko możliwe. Tube preampy są „mięsiste”, dodają do brzmienia tego „czegoś”. Żaden z efektów nie jest plastikowo-kartonowy. Generalnie możliwości są nieograniczone. Darkglass dba o swoich klientów cyklicznie dodając nowe efekty/IR. E500 jest stworzony do każdego stylu, każdego basisty. Szkoda, że na dzień dzisiejszy nie ma jeszcze dedykowanego footswitcha, który teoretycznie pozwala na pozostawienie w swoim pedalboardzie jedynie tunera oraz kompresora (który moim zdaniem jest tutaj najsłabszym ogniwem) . Wbudowany tuner jest precyzyjny, brakuje natomiast choćby małego wyświetlacza danego dźwięku. Bardzo doceniam łączność Bluetooth z telefonem lub jakimkolwiek innym urządzeniem mobilnym (również dla odtwarzania podkładów/muzyki/czegokolwiek). Pod lupą należy szukać minusów. Reasumując, Darkglass Exponent 500 to bardzo dobrej jakości cyfra i power amp. Ćwicz, graj z zespołem, nagrywaj w studio. Zrezygnuj z noszenia ciężarów w postaci miliona kostek i masywnych głów, zafunduj ulgę swoim plecom i przesiądź się na E500. Satysfakcja gwarantowana. Future is here :)
