DESIGNED BY MUSICIANS FOR MUSICIANS

Dear bass player! You have one of the smallest and the most
effective amplifiers as well from the sign of Taurus. We hope that
this gear will come up to your expectations.
Taurus Qube − 300 bass head is the smallest and the lightest bass
amplifier in Taurus's amps line. The compact size of the head was
attained by applying the newest, most advanced technology.The
SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) power supply and Class D
power amplifier in conjuction with classic analog pre−amp provide
great efficency, power, dynamic and sound selectivity . As all
Taurus amps, the Qube − 300 is very easy to operate.The MLO
system equalization control in which the Qube is equipped with,
achieves easy and intuitive tailored sound using only bass and
treble potentiometers.This sound correction simplifies finding the
right tone colour of an instrument.

cable. This link warrants better connection quality and reliability then
Jack−Jack cable.

PRECAUTIONS

MLO − SYSTEM

The “MLO” (Mid Level Optimization) is Taurus proprietary system allowing
for an easy, intuitive and extremely comfortable optimization of the overall
sound of the bassguitar.

The MLO System provides all new possibilities. It ensures most accurate
proportion of medium frequencies in accordance of your manual settings
of bass and trebles. This very intuitive and logical system supports
musician's choice for most desirable sound.

In addition, the MLO equalizer ensures virtually no change in overall volume
while changing the bass frequencies. Unlike most of the standard amps,
adjusting bass frequency the musician notices change of the sound not the
volume.

Middle−range Level Optimization
