Yup. It's a slow day at work. What's your excuse?

So let's recap. No graphic designer, check. No website, check. Anyone want to give these guys actual money?

My old PA put 100w per side into JBL e140 based vocal cabs. No worries in a venue that size.

3 ft from a drum kit one side and bass amp the other. Dynamic mics. Plausible?

I left NZ with a pile, intending to return with same pile. I didn't want to pay duty on reimporting my pile so I went to see Customs on the way out and they slapped a sticker on it. I don't recall if they checked it or took my word for it when I came back. The sticker was nothing fancy a but a real bear to remove. No way it would be possible to peel off one bass and put on another.

Not seeing 300 capacity there, the bar runs most of the length of the room. Had a sub drummer last night. I was reminded how loud a properly kicked kick drum can be. Got a wee bit carried away myself. Shouldn't be a problem to get plenty loud enough that folks are leaning over the bar to shout their drinks orders. If you really want to raise Cain no harm in adding a subwoofer.

Aye. Despite eye protection I got a spark in my eye at work. That was some nasty pain. They packed me off to the doc who found a rust stained divot in my eyeball. Not recommended one little bit.

2nd thoughts Might be easier to take half mm's off the inside edges of the surrounding cabinet with a sanding block until the grill fits.

You need a way of securing the grill while you grind. Either that or use the bench grinder. Either way you also need a place to rest on so nothing is completely "freehand".

Duratex comes in plastic pouches, if available UK?

I was wondering how you guys could be so behind the times as to be vulnerable to counterfeit 50's. Turns out you aren't!

And 'specially those guys that hang around with musicians, hitting things in time with the music. I am trying to get folks to practice with a metronome so they aren't pushing me around while our drummer is unavailable.

No contract made. No contract broken. Offer away.

I think Reverb's issue would be with the seller, it any. I assume the nature of the fee issue was the seller had fees that he wanted to add to the advertised price or he had to pay a commission on your offer that was accepted?

I missed the whole kerfuffle as the Brave browser on my phone nixed it from the get go.

If running late is that predictable you should build it into your fee in the form of per 1/4 hr extensions to the agreed engagement. A performance for 1 hr 10pm to 11pm becomes 10pm to 12am with a +1hr fee tacked on.

Tourism industry agitating for reinstatement. Afaik the scheme is defunct but the law behind it isn't. In theory with the right paperwork you could still march into the Customs office at Heathrow and get a refund.

HPF frees the bass knob to do exactly that.

Au contrair, they are all taking a response dive below 100hz. That doesn't happen by accident. An amp left to its own devices puts out basically a flat response to whatever comes along. The job of a preamp is to give it some character by messing with the signal that goes to the power stage. Those plots are from a notionally flat set of pink noise being sent to the preamp to measure the relative response in the speaker signal.

When inbuilt it is usually called a rumble filter or subsonic filter, just a HPF by a different name. If you are TC it is robustly ignored in all literature as it is very much higher than everyone else's non adjusting HPF. Afaik Genzler, Mesa, and one or two very boutique brands chocka with onboard processing, are the only ones with adjustable HPF. If you can push your string and watch the speaker move there is no filter.

Got on the tunable HPF train with the amps. Afaik the last amps sold without a subsonic filter were the vintage SWRs. It's a few cents worth of parts to HPF the signal going to the power stage. Cf big expensive parts to HPF the speaker signal.

There's a thread for recommended techs stickied in Repairs forum.

Click bait 'journal'ism.

Various websites claim there are booths at airports where you can claim back your VAT paid. Maybe they are staffed by Russians, the websites and booths both. The UK GOVT site promises much but turns out to only address Northern Ireland shoppers leaving to a non EU country. Pretty sure unless it's the Russians you can take along your own version of the proper form for the retailer to fill out. Pay them VAT. Then claim your refund at the border. The retailer does not have to 'participate' but I think they would be ok filling in your form.

Not sure 500w of TC is worth the sticker excitement but with 4 ohm worth of cabinet(s) should make plenty of noise enough to keep up with a drummer. The key to cabs making noise with watts is their broadband sensitivity. Cabinet makers make up even bigger stories about what "wattage" their cabs handle. A 2 cab solution can be handy for relatively low volume situations allowing a single cab. Some expensive 8 ohm single 12 cabs will do enough with the nominal 250 watts from most 500w amps. TC infamous for massively overstating theirs. 2 of the same cabs will always work well together.
