Rollin Thunder

Don't know of there is a dedicated HiFi section anywhere. but could not find anything. After some advice. Just purchased both a new Denon Hifi and direct drift Audio Technica Turntable. Both sound amazing in my 4m x 4m living room with a noice set of Wharfdale Diamond speakers. Only issue is switching from streaming, CD, DAB to Phono Vinyl is a massive drop in volume and I have to crank the volume up a fare bit (turntable set to Line which is loudest). There is no drop in sound quality at all, no extra hum or buzz or anything, just have to boost volume from around 20-24 to 30-36 (it goes to 50) maxed out) I do like it loud but not stupidly and if I do there is plenty in the tank hit 40 on volume and its very load. So does anyone know how to boost the signal from the turntable , just to get it more unity with other settings, can you get boosters for this type of thing, or just by some better quality RCA cables would that make a difference over the std ones that came with the Turntable. Any advice would be appreciated.

This ^ I hate went they just crank it up, the equivalent of sitting in a car reving the engine, when what you want to know is what's the pick up like in 4th from 30-50mph

Any thing by No Doubt or Gwen Steffani. Awful awful artist/band utter crap on any level.

Brian Downey only original member who played on every recording along with Phil founded the band together.

Yep, Al Atkins was the only original member, Ian Hill and KK downing joined and then the band collapsed soon after, they resurrected the band with Atkins Briefly but he soon left, and Rob Halford came in and then Glenn tipton. Thats the classic lineup

Always thought the Bongo bass sounded like the sort of thing Boris Johnson would either play or use to describe some sex position 😆

Makes some really nice cheese

Had my eyes on one of these, but felt it was a bit pricey just yet, looks really nice. Just bought a Two notes le bass, very similar features

Who knows, wanting a new pre amp but a proper tube one as I have an helix stomp been looking at the Le Bass, Ashdown, and saw this. Bit mire money put price will drop a bit once released

Looks nice this, drive not too harsh, but plenty on tap. Not the cheapest but Tube drive and no more expensive that Darkglass pedal. http://www.markbass.it/product-detail/mark-vintage-pre/

The new Muff is really really nice though using split path its as good as the bass big muff pedal.

I did say consider 😉 Ive lived the Stomp since i have had it, but this update is a poor showing for the Bass to literally give us nothing, and its ruined and keeps crashing HX edit.

New update version 3.0 and nothing for bass, very poor, was hoping for a couple of amps and bass specific distortions, may consider switching my allegiance to the new boss core or DG Neural DSP.

Definitely just not a likeable tone, seems odd to use so much blend, my head says defeats the object of the pedal unless using extreme drive. will try using from 9-12 blend (around 30-40%)

Dont gave the zoom anymore upgraded to Helix stomp. several bass’s Fender Jazz deluxe. Ibanez SR1400 active or passive Norstrad preamp and just added a Specter NT aguilar pickups preamp. signal- Compressor Rochester or la comp- BDDI nothing else into tech 21 deuce deluxe Powered cab

Happy for tips on settings, before a right it iff completely and just remove all blocks.

I have never been able to get a good sound out of a BDDI on Zoom or Stomp,, always sounds like its being played underwater. Tried using settings iff Sansamp manual. maybe its just not my thing or getting or i’m just getting it all wroung

Had mine over a week now, had time to gave a real run through NT 4, love the colour and pattern, phenomenal sustain (proper Spinal tap Nigel Tufnell sustain) loads of boom but clarity, generally a more midy sound but not lacking in the low ends, not really used the eq, but sound great everything flat. The Aguilar pickups and pre amp is excellent.

I gad a Spector A few tears ago Ns2000 or legend, bolt on neck, wasnt too impressed, it felt too rattle’y and thin but muddy sounding at the same time, no warmth or real sustain. But it had a bit loose machine heads that i could not get tighter and not sure the bolts on the neck where up to much. Heard the Neck through are a different kettle of fish along with the Aquilar pick ups. Hope this blows my mind and lives up to the Spector hype. Should be here Thursday.

Don’t think the video was the best, twiddling too much, i always start everything in the middle and tweak a bit at a time. But if you only have Like 10 minutes and 4 basses to through you will end up just skimming over.

One of The NT’s is heading my way 4 string Walnut. But do i sell one of my other bass’s is 4 too many

Best of both worlds Tech 21 deuce delux, FRFR but looks and feels like a traditional cab got a 3 band eq HPF & LPF, really brought out all the subtleties on my Helix Stomp, loud 200w if required for stage volume Di in and out. Had mine a couple of weeks really impressed.
