Mesa Boogie Subway WD-800 Ultra-Light Bass Head Overview
In direct response to player feedback Mesa Boogie are proud to unveil the latest in the Subway Bass Amplification Line, the Mesa Boogie Subway WD-800.
New, slightly larger stand-alone Subway Head combines the warm, soulful sounding magic of the WalkAbout tube preamp section with the musical Class D Output Power used in our Subway D800 and D800+ and joined by a new Power Amp Damping feature to create the ultimate lightweight hybrid. Cathode-biased tube warmth, Class D high power and true portability now ride in the same car on the Subway Line and blur the Line between Linear and Class D!
