Its 5-band EQ covers Bass, Lo Mid, Middle, Hi Mid, and Treble, complemented by a Shape switch for dialling in classic tones quickly. On-board processing includes a one-knob compressor, tube-emulated overdrive, and a sub-harmonic generator, all footswitch-assignable via the optional FS2. Connectivity is comprehensive: passive and active instrument inputs, dual Neutrik Speakon\/Jack speaker outputs (minimum 4-ohm load), a balanced XLR DI output, effects loop, tuner output, and a rear headphone output with its own preamp for silent practice. A VU meter monitors input levels, and a mute button shifts the meter colour from orange to blue for clear stage visibility. Users consistently describe the tone as warm, clear, and robust — closer in character to a tube amp than a typical Class D head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA great opportunity to own a Ashdown RM500 EVO II Head – Amplifier Head at this price point.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ashdown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53952513933649,"sku":null,"price":235.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0775\/6913\/0833\/files\/c179d031-e024-493b-9fa1-d97805a14d37.jpg?v=1780576589","url":"https:\/\/www.audiotrader.co.uk\/products\/ashdown-rm500-evo-ii-head-amplifier-head-fair","provider":"Audio Trader","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
