Cool, that gives us 51 weeks to get something done 😁

Just bought this Amp for a complete song. ( Dont ask the final price, you will be appalled …..I gave the guy more than the final eBay listing settled on cos of my remorse for the eBay victory) I’m thinking this looks very early (1980-1981?) it has just been serviced & PATested and sounds utterly wonderful. Any ideas of vintage? model : AH250G serial : 2225 Thanks for looking!

here we go

Well then, with what amounts to a near runaway victory in these parts, we have a resounding outright July win for @Chiliwailer a well supported month with some great material and a worthy winner. With the formalities nearly complete ( I need to do the certificate) we will crack on with his choice of inspiration for us ... "It's summer, and if it were possible I know where I'd rather be right now.... I hope you all also find this image of trekking in Yellowstone Park inspiring." ✅ Entries must be <5 minutes and recorded between now and the deadline. ❌ No illegal samples, copyright infringements or other snide goings-on ❌ No Bagpipes, Please, I think they would get eaten by the grizzleys. ❌ No voting for your own entry. We'll know. And we'll shame you.. Deadline-wise, we will go for Midnight on the 24th July ... Which in reality, means an early one on the 25th , unless I'm away on my holidays! A line or two of blurb as usual for the vote thread will be super duper smashing lovely. Good luck, Have fun

You've posted on a public part of the forum. Anyone can read without joining. Including the CEOs, lawyers and anyone else goggling Pirate recording studios. Be wary and careful that what you post is accurate...

Ugh...

I do think the full story gives a different perspective. Having used Pirate in the past and only stopped because they closed the local studio it rings true. Bear in mind a remote alarm will include the location so someone anywhere on the planet can review the CCTV and if it shows someone vaping under the alarm before it triggers and there are no other alarms then it's reasonable to assume it's a false alarm.

I don’t know if this is relevant Chris, but I had a J-Tone once with CS Jazz pickups and it was great, but when I used it with Fralin dual-coil Jazz pickups the preamp couldn’t handle it and was popping and clicking when I dug in. I spoke to John, but he said he had no idea what the issue was 🤷🏻‍♂️

Without specs you can't model the result to compare them. However, at 1.8mm xmax the Delta 10B (B stands for 16 ohm) was not a bass driver. It was intended for PA tops that weren't run much below 100 Hz.

Very close to mine which i picked up off here a number of months ago. Beautiful bass, I hope it serves you well 🙂

Bass playarrrghs, surely?

I just got one of these after a long wait. I sold my WAZA Air headphones because whilst they’re super neat and everything, the actual headphones themselves let the system down. I really wanted the same sort of tech but where I can use my preferred bass playing headphones, the Beyer DT770. Well, the GO is bang on. I plug it into my Backbeat so it’s like it isn’t there, the app is much better than the WAZA one and I was able to make a flat preset which sounds almost identical to my VB99 setup right away (copied the settings across, pretty much). Flat amp, small upper mid bump, limiter and a tiny bit of room reverb. The app is so much more logical and thanks to a tiny box that says ‘don’t show this screen again’ when you connect the device and open the app, it’s actually more seamless then the WAZA which you basically had to pair with the app each time you opened it. I’ll spend more time with it later this week but I’m pretty confident that I will be able to get exactly the same clean sound I get with my home setup, which will be great - and I notice you can record out of it via USB, too. Excellent!
