Hi, I don’t know the song at all but if it’s any help looks like the chords are on chordify, I’ll try a link https://chordify.net/chords/ben-l-oncle-soul-songs/lose-it-chords

If you want to design an amp driving into 2ohm loads then the first thing you'd need to do would be to double the power supply unless you are prepared to see the power produced by the amp limited by the current available. You'd also need to considerably beef up the heat sinking, although the basic design of most of the amplifier module would remain the same you'd also need to increase the power handling of the output componets to survive the extra current they would be carrying. There would be considerable expense involved in doing this right and it might well add 30-50% to the cost of production for an amp that would only appeal to a limited market. It's significant that historically a lot of 1,000W amps run parallel output stages mainly because it is as cheap or cheaper to do this than to create a 2ohm amplifier. A big beefy power supply does add funcrtionality to any amp and a well specified supply is worth having as it will also improve performance at 4ohms, to an extent you get what you pay for and power supplies are roughly as costly as amps, sometimes more so. An amp might well be advertised as 2ohm stable but if the output remains the same or is even reduced at 2ohms compared with 4ohms then what is the point?

Yup, that's exactly it 👍

On average, more than that.

It's a no from me.

Got to learn this, but I'm struggling - can't even find the chords on the web. Can anybody help, please? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nk5yMt5jWpI

May I suggest this to go with your barbecue

There's a really nice late recording, Joe Henderson Big Band from 1996 that I like.

Just about to light a barbie, so I'll put some sausage and burger music on. Which, today, is:

'hybrid' ... didnt spot that. Even nicer.

... I just noticed that's a Boosey & Hawkes Excelsior in my avatar. Doesnt go out very often these days.

Strunal make great basses. It's the same factory (in Luby) that used to make the old ply basses imported by Boosey & Hawkes in the 1960s (eg the famous 'Aria Excelsior'). I had a factory-new 5/40 some years ago, it had sweet tone and was built like a tank (in a good way). The sound mellows with age and use, so if this one has a few years in it that's not a bad thing. Pictures? I think the 35 denotes some concessins in accessories, so expect slightly cheaper tuners etc, but none of that makes a jot of difference if you're talking a 'starter' bass at good price.

My sire v7 has a good B think it’s 130 on a 34” a certain amount comes from the construction, strings aren’t the whole picture I play one for the ability to get more location options, it isn’t about playing low notes per se

I replaced my two One10s with a single Monza and I'm over the moon! The single 1x10 cab is louder, goes lower and beautiful punchy way, and has better dispersion than the two BF combined!

Man, they sound very very interesting, but €120 for a six string set is wild! Maybe one to add to the lottery win purchase list...

Does this make sense?

As a 4 string player, I would ask a question. When I did play a fiver it was to allow me to get to a D below low E. I never needed to play the the Low B as it is to far into the “muddy waters”. If you go through a PA, a decent sound man will HPF your sound to about 70 Hz, which means almost no output via the PA playing an open B.

Next doors kids screaming at each other over who's next on the paddling pool slide (extended 12" remix)

Cracking job looks brilliant now
