true but considering how much the crush guitar heads are this will hopefully be around the price of the terror heads. andy

blender for the 2 pre amp stages andy

this looks like a nice head, and considering how nice the solid state guitar heads sound this should be pretty interesting. like the sound of a clean side to there amp can see alot of people liking this if the price is right i might look into one for a second amp. https://www.orangeamps.com/products/bass-guitar-amp-heads/ob-1k-bass-amplifier/ andy

for me i always go post, i dnt do anything massive with the eq but it does effect the how things sound with my effects so the pa will always get a post eq signal, andy

[quote name='GUI101' timestamp='1390510763' post='2346317'] Not owned a single 8x10 cab myself but did have two 4x10 trace elliot cabs. They both sounded great and it was entirely more versatile for smaller gigs. That said a trace 8x10 was up for sale on the forum for only a couple of hundred the other week, might still be there if you like the trace stuff. [/quote] dnt get me wrong do like the old school trace stuff but want something a bit more modern. andy

[quote name='tayste_2000' timestamp='1390499939' post='2346122'] Also as a word of advice with an 8x10 buy used, they are hard to sell and generally only a bit more than their 4x10 counterpart so if you're getting one you want to loose as little on it as possible and be committed to the fact you're going to use it for years, I think I've had mine for 5 and it is still the best bass tone I've ever had (think guitarist stood infront of 2 4x12's) you don't grow up wanting a stack of high efficiency 1x12's behind you [/quote] yeh i would be keeping this for a while. been watching a few videos the swr seems very punchy, does anyone have the frequency response of the cabs ive listed cant find the info on the swr? andy

epic new art work on the pickle! and like the look of the mxr univibe! andy

[quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1390499000' post='2346103'] Was Tayste's PX offer still a bit too rich? [/quote] yeh sadly, ah ok i see so not bad speakers just to replace they be pricey i see, am i right in thinking the swr 610 is a weird ohms? be interested in trying the swr cabs, also the swr cab like some of the others can run stereo (2x410's)

thats hideous! andy

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1390494879' post='2346028'] The thing with 8x10s is that they can be picked up for very little. Downside is they usually weigh a ton & the speaker configuration is not the best for dispersion (though no worse than a 4x10 box). I wouldn't consider getting an 8x10 a move up (maybe sideways ). If you were looking at other configurations, then a 2x10 + 4x10 isn't a good choice as you have 2 drivers dealing with twice as much as the other 4 & they're 2 different sounding cabs (& the 4x10 has the same narrow dispersion). If you want a killer rig, I'd look at a couple of decent 2x12s (or 2x10s). But then you're not gonna get that for as cheap as a s/h 8x10. [/quote] not totally looking for the 810 as a need for more volume thats an advantage. andy

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1390492488' post='2346004'] The Barefaced '69er would be my choice if I was looking for an 810. There's a couple of Mesa Boogie Powerhouse 1000's (410+115) in the FS section. They would sound fantastic and take on an Ampeg fridge with ease. [/quote] cant afford the price or waiting time of the 69er, the mesa's do look nice? would be open to a 610 but although i loved the 610hlf id quite like to switch it up. are there lots of problems with the swr speakers andy

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1390490313' post='2345974'] Unless you've got a roadie, I'd be making my choice on size and weight! You might also consider a 6X10, which is a decent compromise. Hauling an 8X10 gets old really quick. I've only used two - the classic Ampeg 810 and a Carvin R810TL - both excellent. [/quote] got good band mates and my van so not a problem moving them about. andy

[quote name='andydye' timestamp='1390489172' post='2345962'] or...given that you love the sound of your orange obc410, what about an orange 810!? [/quote] gonna have to go secondhand so of the list as price wise its gonna be to much. andy

sounds awesome http://basschat.co.uk/topic/227377-new-mxr-pre-amp/

hi guys as the title says im looking to go up to an 810, wondering on any views you people might have on these cabs im thinking of. the classic 810e/av ampeg ashdown abm 810 ashdown mag 810t swr megolith peavey 810 laney nexus 810 i get the ampeg is mid heavy and have used this cab before but wondering if theres something more suited to me, needs to be able push the deep lows i need, but still have nice highs. so hit me with your views andy

signed its stupid how the council even has to take this seriously! andy

i know right

i dnt really need but i want! andy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hx7dOcFDWtI sounds really nice! andy

[quote name='Chrismanbass' timestamp='1390402937' post='2345014'] nothing to do with the sound of a band dude i've already explained why mic'ing a bass cab on a small stage is a bad idea [/quote] how small is small tho? andy

basically a slightly overdrive dude so any low gain drive should do it. andy

[quote name='froggybassboy' timestamp='1390428980' post='2345482'] thanks for that. I also read somewhere that the orange originally sourced theirr tubes from China and admitted that they could be better. No idea if the newer ones are also chinese/better. [/quote] they sound good, dnt know what tubes mine has they will sound good i wouldnt worry to to much. andy

[quote name='charic' timestamp='1390405977' post='2345065'] Is it just me or does the vocalist of Nervosa sound like she could actually be that Letty (I think) from fast and furious? [/quote] this is very true!

[quote name='Thunderpaws' timestamp='1390427365' post='2345447'] Haven't the newer ones had their valve issues sorted? I think I read an interview with someone from Orange who said they had realised they were crappy so sourced better ones. [/quote] didnt know there was any valve issues? they had the hot di thing but thats been sorted for a while. andy
