[quote name='Lotusmark2' timestamp='1348145360' post='1809962'] Thanks so much guys, doing a final round up of my thoughts on this. If home use was the only consideration do you guys think the CL would hold its own (thinking PA for gigs) [/quote] the ampeg will be fine for home use, but i still say you should try and check out the other ampeg micro amp. but with a pa like above you might struggle and also have to crank it a bit but you could always try raising the combo up higher so you hear it better. andy

Have u thought of the other micro ampeg? That def gig worthy? Bit more expensive but probs within your budget?

any more news on this? andy

sold john a odb-3, really nice bloke to deal with! andy

ok guys as you can see from my sig, ive decided on the golight cabs, the only good guitar store has only got a 115 golight cab in stock!! gonna see if they can order but dnt really have the cash to go new which is a bit rubbish as no one seems to be selling these not even on the evil bay! also as ive just joined a blues band i might see how much one of the golight 112's would be and use that! as there wouldnt be a need for the 410 in that band andy

bought some speaker cables from andy! really quick delievery and a really nice guy to deal with! andy

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1347911607' post='1806605'] More likely to be the amp..unless you have an active bass.... in which case I'd make sure it isn't the battery starting to fade. It sounds like the output stage on the amp is having problems so I'd get it down to a tech as soon as poss... as it could die at the wrong time. But you can try and help pinpoint which compoent by swapping out the cabs and seeing if the problem remains with different cabs.. so at least you can go to the tech and say it is definitely the amp. [/quote] +1 If you narrow it down, it will help the tech out and save u money. Andy

[quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1347922591' post='1806821'] Cheers Andy, could do that , but just less kit is good , as is less set up , if it was my own stuff supporting the idea I could get on with it but the old Pareto principle comes in , you spend 80% more effort for a 20% sound improvement , or something like that . Some might say sound is all , but a harmonious band atmosphere helps aswell !! [/quote] Indeed mate, no probs

could always get a small amp just for the kick? andy

ok how big is the triad? goliath 2/3 seem to get good press, no golight users at all? andy

why not just put it through the pa? but dnt connect two amps into your cab will end in tears andy

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1347896990' post='1806323'] Bang for buck...the Goliath ll is the best cab around...IMO. I sold mine fro £250...so I'd pay between £2-300 for one if I could carry it. I would also have a Goliath snr, 610 as a spare, so £350 for that, maybe, is what I'd pay [/quote] wicked advice man! well i dnt have the weight of my amp to deal with so wouldnt mind a heavy cab. and the headlites got a nice eq so can adjust it pretty well to sort boom. no golight owners out there? andy

so the sealed cabs have a tighter low end? makes sense with what marcus plays. the more im looking im thinking im gonna have to be silly lucky to get a golight cab doesnt seem to be many around at all! swr in general! andy

The 410 working pro's rms is 400w as im gonna pair my new headlite with the new cab, i dnt wanna be worrying about straining the cab. Its nothing against the cabs at all!

Im not to concerned about weight unless its silly! Although thats what interests me with the golight cabs, i had a brief look at the working pro cabs but they are to under powered to make them viable. What the main difference between the sealed marcus 410 and the standard 410? Andy

i think the filters are awesome on the mb heads, i pretty much add a little bass but everything else is flat(12'o'clock) then i kinda shape the sound a bit with the filters. ive only sold mine as i was violently hit by gas the other night and have got another head on the way. but i do love the sound of markbass, when i had my 610hlf it ruled! i still dnt see the need for an 800w version as i never had to push it! ever! its never been passed half! andy

hi guys! due to a late night gas session ive got a new amp on the way and im looking into grabbing a cab to go with it! im selling both my existing cabs and im thinking of hunting down a 410 swr cab, im guessing that a 410 golight cab is probs out of my reach! what do they normally go for? also does anyone have any views on these cabs? or have one near me that i can come and try once ive got my new amp. im hoping to get about 350/400 for my cabs does that seem a reasonable budget to be able to grab what im after? andy

Definatly worth checking the used section on here! Can grab a right bargin if you look around.

[quote name='ThomBassmonkey' timestamp='1347751883' post='1804701'] If you think it sounds good, that's all that matters. If you don't know what the benefits of having a seperate head and cab are, you won't miss them either. The rumble is a decent amp, especially at that price. Enjoy it, then if you eventually think something's missing, you can look at alternatives. [/quote] +1 you will easily trade or sell that on here if you wanna upgrade later andy
