Portable, punchy bass tones!

Hartke proves that great tone doesn't need to cost a ton with the Hartke HD150 bass combo amp. Pushing 150 watts of power through a single 15" speaker and 1" tweeter, the HD150 is perfect for any rehearsal space or gig. When you're gigging out and about, durability is a must, and the HD150 will easily withstand being lugged from gig to gig. The Hartke HD150 bass combo amp is a great choice when you don't need a ton of power, but you also don't want to sacrifice tone.

The combination of paper and aluminum cone makes for an incredible sonic combo

So what makes the Hartke HD150 bass combo stand apart from other similarly priced amps? It's all revolving around the HyDrive-design speaker. The HyDrive-design speaker uses paper around the outside for traditional warm, round tones. But the middle is aluminum, adding trademark Hartke zing. The result is a portable bass amp that offers the best of both worlds. Sweetwater knows a thing or two about bass, and Hartke's HD150 bass combo is garnering some well-deserved attention around here.

Hartke HD150 Bass Combo Amp Features:
  • Portable and rugged for gigging
  • 15" speaker and 150 watts of power for practice around the house or small gigs
  • HyDrive uses combination of paper and aluminum cone for warmth and punch
  • 1" tweeter for extra pop
  • 7-band EQ for tone shaping
  • Effects loop makes it easy to add FX
  • 1/8" stereo aux input allows for stereo line level devices
  • 1/4" mono headphone output for silent practice
  • Built-in limiter for controlled volume
  • Casters for easy transportation
Get portable bass tones you'll love with the Hartke HD150 bass combo amp!

Amazing sound

Bought this after trying one at a gig. Love the sound and the punch! The 7-band eq with 2.5k and 5k sliders allow the bright harmonics to shine through. Scooping your tone couldn't be easier (or cleaner!). Can't say enough about it!
Rated 5/5

Great Value for an Excellent Combo!

I've been gigging with a HD150 for a few years now in a trio format. I use a HD75 for smaller venues.
This amp is solid - sounds great - EQ is very good. If you can get past the weight it's a bargain.
I had to replace the casters after (2) years.vThey simply wore out. The amp hasn't!
Music background: 40 yrs as a Semi-Pro

Great sound, As expected

Although I've only had the Hartke HD 150 for a short time. It's been over a decade since I last played using a Hartke set up, I remember it being a solid bass amp. I'm glad I made the purchase, did not disappoint. It's perfect for practice and probably smaller gigs. Highly recommend based on performance and cost.
Music background: Guitar and bass player (Mostly) for many years. I started in My early teens and payed professionally through my mid 20’s. Have a little more time now and just trying to get back to playing more (20 yrs later).

Amp sound coming out of main speakers instead of subwoofesr

This amp is awesome by all means ever since our band upgraded from a very old behringer amp. But a new problem arose with this upgrade. When we tried to wire it in our mixer (allen & heath ZED) the sound comes out of the main speakers instead of the subwoofers and by god does it sound bad. With the exact same set up with our old and i mean old amp everything was fine and sounded nice. Couldn't find any support for this online sorry I had to write it in the reviews. 5/5 this amp is really good by the way awesome versatility in tone and loudness is top notch for a small band like ours
Rated 5/5

Great Amp

Although I am by no means "Blown Away", I feel completely confident that the Hartke 150 was the best amp I could afford and unless I am proven wrong, the best amp on the market for the price.
I originally bought a Fender Rumble 100 which was a decent amp with some serious flaws. I decided to return it and buy the Hartke because so many of the best Bass players I have seen played through Hartke's which speaks volumes.
The Hartke is definitely well worth the $... price difference because the features are decidedly superior. Compared to the... Fender Rumble 100, for...more the Hartke delivers 50 more watts of power, a 15" woofer and a tweeter, compared to the Rumble's 12" speaker, a built-in EQ and metal mesh protecting the speakers. While the Hartke weighs more than twice the rumble, the build is correspondingly more solid.
There are high-quality handles built into the side of the cabinet which comes with heavy-duty casters that fit perfectly. I like the fact that there are no bells and whistles, that the Hartke is a straight-forward workhorse that sounds really good without any effects pedals or processors.
The only real complaint I have about this otherwise superb amp, is that there is no 1/4" jack for an extension cabinet. Although this is not a complaint, but more of a suggestion, I also wish the HD 150 had an old-school spring reverb to compensate for the flatness, lacking depth of acoustic headspace common to all bare-bones amps, regardless of solid state, tube or combination.
