    It’s a guitar cabinet! Seriously the PJB video has some good stuff in it but does not do what the title suggests, explain why lots of small speakers is better.

    Yes but I need to drill some new wholes as the existing ones were not ideal😀 I have also order some slightly smaller ones.

    I will let @stevieanswer the driver question but I asked the question about the handle last week. One of my amps has only about 4mm clearance. The answer was, and in hindsight I agree, that rebating the handle will create a dust trap as the handle is rounded over at the edge. Having used that handle now on my previous cab for 4 years or more, I can say that it is the easiest one hand lift handle I have used.

    I am listening to that now and will comment later.

    Encore was the own brand name of basses and guitars from JHS. Formerly known as John Hornby Skewes, they are based in Leeds. I know Trev Wilkinson had some design input at some point, but maybe a bit later? https://www.jhs.co.uk/search?type=product&options[prefix]=last&q=Encore

    REW may be the way to go. I use software allied to the Picotech range of PC oscilloscopes. This is versatile but expensive for just viewing the frequency responses of amplifiers.

    Using ready-made 3.5mm cables and cutting them in half is the easiest way, but I am always wary of moulded plugs. They can hide a multitude of sins, even on the big brands. Also braided cables bring their own problems. I agree that the Rean plugs are some of the best, especially with the Neutrik brand behind them.

    Thank you Sir.

    I will do that next time I visit @stevie. It won't be soon as I have Covid 😁

    There was a lot of different things in the quiet room so interest was spread around.

    The RM500 was measured with the EQ off.

    Having revied the graphs, I think the readings we took on Sunday are valid.

    This is the Bugera Veyron 1001M measured at speaker output: THis is the response of the preamp only

    This is the Ashdown RM500: Thjis is the Ashdown MiBass 550 The Ashdown RetroGlide 800 The AShdown Mibass 2.0, this was measured from input to line out, so preamp only:

    This is the Warwick Gnome with all controls at 12 o'clock And with the controls set to achieve a flatish response. Ignore the red line, this is the response with the controls set in the pictutre above.

    Please ignore the dB scale. I am still getting to grips with the software. Trace Elliot Elf

    It was not in the PA, but I was thinking of using IEMs myself at that gig which would entail taking everything through the PA. That can be done. We usually use the singer's Behringer powered mixer, but I have a Soundcraft UI16 with up to 6 AUX buses. As there are 5 of us, we can have a mix each and one for luck.

    This is a DI pedal for Acoustic Guitar works extremely well for bass. I bought it directly from Ashdown and they described it as an Acoustic/Bass Pre-Amp. It seems to work well for both, and would probably work well with Double Bass. The Ashdown Acoustic Preamp Pedal has a very simple but effective layout utilizing many of the features of the classic Ashdown Acoustic preamp. It includes a notch filter, high and low EQ rotary controls as well as the Ashdown pre-shape feature. There is also a very useful balanced DI out on the back of the pedal allowing the user to run their signal straight into the PA for ease of use and will keep any sound guy happy, no need for a DI box. Powered by either a 9V battery or a usual 9V pedal power supply. Will Post for £5

    This Zoom B1ON has served me well but I now have the Zoom B1 Four. it includes a basic drium machine lid a looper as well as a lot of effects. Zoom say: ”With the Zoom B1on, your bass will never have to take a back seat. 100 powerful bass effects and amp models—5 can be used simultaneously, chained together in any order—allow you to deliver the kind of solid foundation your music deserves. You can even construct CD-quality bass loops, perfectly synchronized to the onboard rhythm machine, and there's a built-in tuner too.” You can download the User Manual and effect list from https://zoomcorp.com/en/gb/multi-effects/bass-effects/b1on/b1on-support/ Can be powered by 4AA BATTERIES or the usual 9V pedal power supply centre -ve. Can post for £5 more.

    This was my first thought.

    I once accidentally followed a series wiring diagram for my DiMarzio P/J set (both humbuckers). The sound was so thin it was unusable for bass.
  23. Chienmortbb
    A thought occurred to me that there is terra firma at the side of the stage, so I might put my LFSys cab there and use a smaller amp/IEM for on-stage monitoring,

    Has anyone a solution to boomy stages. I have thought of using some 50 mm foam, but will that solve it? I have another gig there on NYE.
