Thanks Obrienp, I'm not sure those guitars were properly mixed. Those guys were constantly tuning between songs. I mentioned this before. We had an hour break between sets . It was heaven to have an air conditioned trailer. Daryl

Looking at it, it's probably more like 3-4 feet at the last two indoor venues. Both "PA venues" with house sound guys, foldbacks. The music is standard rock covers. I agree, it doesn't seem normal but that's the reality. I can experiment with the position of the cab but it would have to be done with the band playing. At level check when it's just me hitting single notes for the sound guy, it's all tickety boo.

Picked this up recently. Needed a fret dress, and now plays very well. My 2 1/2 year old daughter has started playing it too. I bought it under the pretence that it's hers...

I'm still working on it. We play the song so fast it's hard to come up with something. Daryl

@stevie Happy to PM me?

I've never needed it to be that loud as the dispersion is excellent. I have literally walked over to the guitarist (on the OTHER side of my drummer) and heard myself almost as loud and clearly as standing in front of my rig.

Thanks Dave, I put the MIJ 2000 Fender P away for a while. I'm back with my 1994 G&L. Daryl

I can explain why this is happening and why LFSys cabs have been designed specifically to fix this problem. But I'm sure someone else who's not as heavily invested in LFSys will explain.

You can't hear a Two10, 8 ft in front of it? That's not normal. What music is the band playing? "I tend to have my sound pretty sorted". Have you changed cabs or any other gear recently? Is the band loud? Is the guitarist "stealing" your frequencies? My guess is your band thinks you are "so loud" on stage because the dispersion from BF cabs exceeds most other cabs. They can hear you because the design of the cab makes it happen. Another guess, your problem might be your EQ. I'd try a gig with no pedals and see what happens. I'd also experiment with the position of the cab. Maybe move it forwards on stage, maybe angle it away from the band.

I tend to have my sound pretty sorted, at least it sounds good to me when I use wireless and go out front during soundcheck. I switch back to a lead for the show. It's a GK Fusion 550 (EQs mostly between 11 to 1 0'Clock). Spector, Nickel Rounds, no dirt, just some compression, and occasional chorus and EQ pedals. The last gig was fine, it was outdoors and I had some distance between me and the cab. Previous gigs have been just dreadful with the same set up. I can hear my rig OK when it's just me doing level checks but when we're playing as a band it seems to get lost on stage when I'm close to the rig.

I thought it was Charlie’s call. He wanted a jazzer and Daryl had played with Miles which sealed the deal on its own

This does a lot of stuff, similar in many ways to the Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 2. Here's what you get: • 7 x isolated DC outputs (5 are switchable 9V/12V, 2 have a sag control to emulate a dying battery and provide variable voltage from 4V-9V, but can also provide a normal 9V) • 1 x 9V AC output that can power a Whammy pedal (if you want/need a whammy pedal too then I'm open to offers!) • The whole unit is switchable 230v/115V if you're taking it abroad I'm including as many patch cables as I could find, including a doubler cable for powering 18V pedals (I used to run a bit Cali76 off this). Comes with box and manual. £50 securely packed and tracked to mainland UK addresses.

ossyrocks started following LFSYs Monaco - how good?

I don't understand why this is happening for you, as it's not my experience with the 10" BF cabs. Plus the fact that your bandmates "are wondering why you're so loud". What's the rest of your rig, and what kind of sound are you aiming for? The BF 10" cabs really fill the space, and sound good from anywhere on stage in my experience. I have a BF Three10 and a One10, and last night I used my One10 at Matt & Phreds in Manchester. It could be heard very well and clearly all around the stage, and in fact the sound guy asked me to turn down a tad after the first set. The FOH was doing most of the work, but on stage it was great. The amp was a GK Legacy 800 with the top end rolled off a bit, with a P bass with flats. Rob

PRICE NOW DROPPED TO £300. Easily the best speaker cabinet I have ever used: am downsizing to lighter Genz Benz cabs as I rarely play live now. The Eden D210XST Cab is loud enough to be heard and yet still small enough to be used at home or in a small studio. For those players who need a portable, high-performance rig with even more low end than the XLT, Eden has designed a 2 x 10" cabinet for their XST woofers. Punchy and clean, the D210XST produces a full and clear tone through its two 10" speakers. It's excellent for delivering articulate bass lines with volume. This 2 x 10" cabinet handles more power than many 4 x 10" cabs on the market. The D210XST offers huge bottom end with its cleverly-designed tuned and ported cabinet construction and speaker selection: the low end is full but tight, the mids are open and well-defined and the highs are clear and crisp. Durable build quality makes this ideal for touring and live performances. All Eden enclosures are constructed with 5/8" thick void free plywood with full dado and rabbet jointing. Massive internal bracing prevents vibration and keeps the sound deep, tight and clear. Exclusive Eden Cast Frame loudspeakers and Eden Cast Bell low distortion tweeter horns are designed, hand-built and tested in their own factory in the USA. Very Good condition. Comes with an official Eden cover. Power Handling: 500 Watts Impedance: 8 Ohms Speakers: 2x10" Eden-spec Eminence EC1060XS speakers Tweeter: Eden Cast Bell low distortion Crossover: 3.5KHz @ 18dB Frequency Response: 30Hz - 14KHz Sensitivity: 103dB SPL Connections: Parallel 1/4 Inch and Speakon Dimensions: 23" w x 18" h x 18.5" d Weight: 59lbs / 26.8kg NOW ONLY £300. Collection from East London preferred, although happy for buyer to arrange a courier.

I can confirm that a Monaco fits nicely in the frunk of a Porsche 986 Boxster if you pop the spare wheel out first 🙂
