  1. The problem is with the new class D amps having bridged outputs that puts signal ground to the case. It becomes relatively easy to accidentally short circuit the amp if you are waving a lead around while it is on. 200w is a 'safe' number to put through a phone jack/plug without causing a fire. Nothing to do with the bridged output issue.
  2. Charlie Smethurst is the name of a big league property developer / scam artist who was brought down in a major way. As far as I can tell there is as much proof Mark is his son as there is that Mason is Mark / Mike12 yada yada.
  3. Time to blow up Steve's phone, it's only been a year of this.
  4. A checkout 'chick' at the supermarket retired a few years ago. I guess you could say she got away with it. Identity is optional these days.
  5. Can't happen here. Wanted threads are all non discussion, reply by PM these days. Regards moaning Brits, we invented a new word just for them, Whinging Pom. A moan crossed with a whine is a whinge, cuts through like nails on a chalkboard.
  6. I'd be scarce if I had been in The Gary The Pedo Glitter Band.
  7. 600w per channel is probably something like 400w clean watts available to be going to an 8 ohm cab. Not many cabs will do very much more with an extra 200w on top of 400w, if they haven't reached breaking point already.
  8. There's a lightly used one with a Elf 200w amp, for less than the new cab, in the classifieds.
  9. A possible clue: The caramel carpet backdrop.
  10. Instead of putting up a red flag they have a pet werewolf.
  11. It's hard work sifting the innuendo from hard facts. As far as I can recall the dots joined are: A ( presumed fake shill Smethurst ) post on an old Mason FB account. A common band. A common modus operandi. So it could be a bandmate got in on the scam?
  12. Andertons presently have the BF+Elf for 638 delivered. 400 is the deal!
  13. Not all models are so well supported with spares.
  14. Turning down as in physically adjusting the amp knob is what I was meaning.
  15. Saturation is adding distortion overtones at a higher rate than the undertones. Compression is progressively failing to amplify over the threshold. Turning down the volume is turning down the volume.
  16. I don't know that I get along with that analogy too well at all. Your shrinking would be like turning down the volume knob. Automotive analogies, always running out of steam
  17. Loud enough for....? Is the question. 'Loud' going out of fashion works for 210 cabs more than it used to.
  18. Hoping Mr 1 post Leek left an email with BC admin. If this Smethurst is indeed Mason he's for the high jump this time around.
  19. I hope you reported to https://www.actionfraud.police.uk/ I don't do bookface so I can't look into the allegation he is the original Mick Mason with new bank account.
  20. Thanks for signing up for righteous bump. Complain to your local police fraud squad. Someone had his actual bank account details up the thread. Cops should be knocking on his door verily once one takes an interest. If you look in ''his cousin'''s thread Mike [Hunt] ( can't remember his actual name at the minute but exact same M.O.) there should be a link to a national crime squad focusing on these side income stream internet swindlers.
  21. Aussie have told the credit card banks to shove it and limited the fees they can charge to less than 1%. I don't know why it's taking so long to get done here. 2.5% off of 'everything' is out and out robbery, they're 'taxing' all your costs of sale, plus the VAT!
  22. Too slow. I was already imagining how you must have got over excited by nubile dancers gyrating to your rhythms...cue adult film music...injury story.
  23. Not over here. It was a breach of the merchant account conditions with the bank, until the gummint said those contracts were illegal. Now very common to see surcharge percentages added onto credit card transactions. People are addicted to credit so the banks just make their end on a bigger amount.
  24. It's not complicated to post internationally. All you have to do is fill in the green sticky form declaring content and value. Job done. If someone really really wants it this month ( year?) they will do the deal (and pay another round of sales tax at their end). Not complicated at all. Cheaper for a Euro to get a new one direct from Canada if they could only order one. Ain't limited supply grand! Nice demo video! So many good tones in one box.
  25. What you should have done is had all the other bands agree to invoice the difference on top of the usual to play the next weekend after The Cheapskates.
