My main amp is a Bugera Veyron (the MOSFET one) and iy has every input output available including an FX loop. My Ashdown MiBass 2 has nothing but an input, speaker output and Aux in. This got me wondering if anyone used the FX loop on their amp, and if so, what for? I have only evet used the EFX Return as power amp input bypassint]y the preamp but of course AUX in also usually does this.

Well done. I am sure you hae learnt a lot from the build and would do some things better next time. However it looks a lot better than my first cabinet.
-
I have one of those too.
-
I was lookimg at one of those but a Picoscope 2006 came up on ebay and that includes an Arbitrary Waveform Generator that can be automated. I have not had it long but I have used a plug in to check the frequency response of my amps. I will be doing a response of the Zoom B1 Four tomorrow.

I would love an ABM600 if it was a little narrower. I suspect they were designed with 19" rack mounting in mind, but something 350mm ish wise would suit today's smaller cabs. Please Mr Ashdown,

Not wishing to sound like a killjoy but should this thread be moved to theEffects forum?

This is made from three metres of Sommer Triclone XXl, a very high quality cable plus two straight Tricone XXL Jack Plugs ( HI-J63TC-SM) specially designed for use with this cable. They include a metal clamping system that grips the cable firmly over a large area. This ensures that no matter what the weight/load put upon the cable the connector stays frimly on the cable. Other lengths are available as well as other connectors. PM me for details. Tricone XXL is one of the best cables for use with instruments and the HiCon jack plugs used onntghese cable are specifically desinged fo nthe cable The signal conductor is bigger than most ensuring that conductor breakages are minimised. This is what Sommer say about the Tricone XXL: The Tricone® XXL has a fat PE foam insulation which is firmly enclosed and held in place by a carbon screen. This will optimise the capacitance and ensure a loss-free treble reproduction even over longer distances. This design and the Cu mesh screen will perfectly protect against external interference. The special LONGLIFE COMPOUND jacket ensures a high tread resistance and tensile strength Advantages: Powerful, clear sound with the transmission of any instrument signals Dual shielding by Cu mesh screen and conductive carbon screen Highly flexible and easy to reel because of its fine single litz design Extremely durable and rugged due to LONGLIFE COMPOUND jacket Application: High-quality guitar lead for stage & studio Unbalanced cable for all string instruments, keyboards, samplers, mixing desks etc. The HI-J63TC-SM jack plug is made for the Tricone XXL cable and when properly assembled it is probably the best jack plug/cable combination there is. -
This is a speakON to speakON cable made from 1.2mm2, ultra flexible speaker cable with Neutrik NL4FX speakONs at each end. The cable is rated at 18+amps and the connectors 20 amps, that equates to 2600 watts at 8 ohms and 1300 at 4 ohms. -
Made with 1.2mm conductors, good for in excess of 18 amps. This equates to aprox 2600 watts at 8 ohms or 1300 watts at 4 ohms. The connectors are Neutrik NP2X jack and Neutrik NL4FX speakON. The length is approx 700mm (2ft 4ins). -

Unless it were badly designed, you proabbly would not notice it on an instrument amp.
-
Spot on again @agedhorse I think the classification Class AB is very misleading, as it almost implies that the power stages of the amp are operating in Class A at some point.
-
Yes, if you want a big roundover, use screws and remove them once the glue has dried and fill the holes.
-
I built another of @stevie's kits about two weeks ago and had just found some longish panel pins. I decided to use them to help keep the cabinet rigid whil the glue dried. It worked really well and allowed me to to put the cab together much quicker. Once the glue had dried I used a nail punch to push the heads of the panel pins below the surface and then filles the holes with a mixture od wood dust and glue.Of the five cabinets I have built since the start of the Mk2 development (I built the original prototype) this was the easiest.

The TDA 2000 series such as TDA2020/30/50 are dual supply and although they can be used single supply, I would not recommend it especially as the quiescent current will br quite big, running down your battery faster. Thr TPA series are very efficient and will run cooler so I would stick with them.
-
Don't rush into it. You might find a 10" design on hereat some point. @stevie

Having heard Phil's RCF I can only agree that it would beat most cheap small bass cabinets when used with a pre-amp/modeller and as stage monitors I suspect they would excel. I will be sticking to my BC112 though with an amp as I built it and can modify it at any point.
-
Yes the Basschat Yes indeed altghough it is on hold at the moment. One other point is the tweeter control. If a cabinet is truly FRFR then the tweeter will not stand out and a control probably would not be needed. In the years I have been using the Mk2 and Mk3 Basschat 112's, I have never felt it too bright and could always get a good sound by adjusting the amp EQ or bass tone control(s).

I am tempted to mod my Peavy Rage 158 but need to finish the After Eighty first.#

Me too.

I don't understand your point. Are you saying that Is wrong?
-
I have not used DeOxit D-5 but have used Servisol Super 10 for years. As for the fan propelling dust into the pot, I would appreciate @agedhorse comments but I was always told that much of the "dirt" in pots comes from wear on the tracks. I must admit though that in my early days, fans were few and far between.
-
That WOULD be stunning.
-
That is a thing of beauty.

I would have agreed with you before I fell in love with my Aerodyne.
