    Very nice, I had a 4 string version with different Pups, I still regret selling it. Someone will be very happy here!

    [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1435343197' post='2807991'] Check out the Baers here as a 2x112 option... you could run them with either a TH500 or the DB750. [/quote] Mmmmm, sounds good to me! ☺️

    No worries, hope it goes ok. At band volume I have zero issues with mine and can't find fault with it at all. I do get slight white noise which is noticeable at practice volumes, so I tend to use a PJB Bighead headphone amp at home, as it's crystal clear. As a gigging amp I love my mb800.
  10. Musashimonkey
    Had a little play to test out your points: Channel B quieter - yep, it is quieter, this is so that you can add more gain on channel B to get an overdriven tone, channel B Level, and Master then allow you balance to volume to match channel A. To give you one clean and one distorted channel. Nothing to worry about. Pop when changing - yep, I hear a little bit of what you're describing, not all that noticeable though, not a big or defined Pop, but I could hear a blip in the tone, definitely something that could be as you describe. I find it a great little amp. Hope this helps.

    I'll have play later on my mb800 to look into the other areas, but for now: Grainy hum - yep, I've had two with that and am thinking it may be due to RF interference or not very clean power. I've tried a cheap power conditioner, but that didn't resolve it. On mine it's only a quiet him and not an issue with normal playing volumes. Fan running loud - nope, my fan is speed controlled and takes a while before it even kicks in, and then runs at different speeds so generally stud nice and quiet unless you're pushing it.

    Argh! I literally tossed a coin between these cabs and my now current Barefaced rig - before you listed these. At this price I'd have had your hand off, incredible!
  13. Musashimonkey
    I haven't used them, but saw some at Bass Direct earlier this year too. I did express an interest, though they said they hadn't sold any to date. It makes sense if they're paired with some IEM's, I imagine you get the full body vibration as you would standing in front of a stack and save damaging your ears!
  14. Musashimonkey
    Yeah, heard about this earlier, sounds good. He's a good friend and very creative bassist, should be a good ride, I'm in!
  15. Musashimonkey
    Fantastic amp, really enjoying mine! Highly recommended.

    [quote name='alexclaber' timestamp='1434098126' post='2796584'] As Genz are no longer in production we're often recommending the GK MB800 (Fusion or not) amps for those who want powerful yet tiny and affordable lightweight head - not heard any bad things about that combination yet. [/quote] +1 For GK mb800 & Barefaced.

    If all the previous sales fall through I'll take this too please!
  18. Musashimonkey
    Not if I nab it after 92 😉 This is exciting!

    Woah! 😍

    Great news! Glad you like it. 😀 It certainly delivers for such a small package.

    [quote name='ambient' timestamp='1433454711' post='2791305'] I got myself a Double Four from Thomann. I have to say, I am so happy with it. It's totally silent too, no unwanted noises that others have complained about. [/quote] Glad you like it. I'm super happy with mine, no background noise here either! Just oodles of great tone!
  23. Musashimonkey
    One more completed!

    [quote name='GregBass' timestamp='1432737043' post='2784421'] I am intending to stand my Big Baby 2 on top of another Big Baby 2 to get it up to a decent height [/quote] Now there's a solution I like! 😃

    [quote name='Modman' timestamp='1432231150' post='2779539'] Well I am finding more and more that the better quality the gear you use, the less EQ that is needed to a more pleasurable tone. The LM3 that arrives tomorrow will be the icing on the cake for my setup which will be: 1. Ibanez SR1205 2. MXR Bass Compressor 3. Markbass LM3 4. Bergantino HT & EX 112s Bit of a tone beast right there [/quote] Very nice indeed, I've tried a MB Big Bang through those cabs, which was very nice, so with that set up I don't think you'd be able to EQ a non-pleasurable tone if you tried! Let us all know how the Mark Bass fits in!
