I've had an MB 200 for over a year now and really like the amp with a Tommy Huff cab. Just wondering if those with an MB 500 find that the variable contour control is used at a different setting other than full on or full off? The MB 200 just has a toggle switch and full on is pretty bright, but I don't really care for anything I've tried in the full off position.

Another question. What guage speaker cable is adequate for the 500 watt amp? Can you get by with 16 guage, or should you use something heavier. Thanks

I have the mb500 and like some of of the extra feachers on it, the contour is very useful i think, farther clockwise is more HIs and bass, counter clock wise more mid section, using it with the other EQs you have a lot of possibiltys, as far as the speaker cords im using 14 gauge wire but only about 6 ft long, that is plenty unless you want to run it a lot father like across the stage
