    If the length of the cable is less than half a metre then the core size is likely to be fine, its more about finding a nice robust outer and connector, so a mains-rated cable in a circular jacket is a good choice and should fit easily into the DC connector. For 0.5mm core wire the resistance per metre is something like 0.035 ohms so it isn't going to affect your PSU voltage until you start using a few hundred metres of cable.

    If your mixer is a Behringer Eurodesk then there are lots of options for picking up a feed from a 1/4" jack output. Main outs Control room outs Aux sends (4) Sub-group outputs (4) I think that the 1/8" jack on the Tascam DR07 is actually a line input so any of the above should give about the right recording level. If you're just wanting to record the rehearsal for reference then main outs are easiest and don't forget to add lots of reverb to the mix, otherwise it'll sound like you were all singing straight into each other's ears from about 2" away... good luck!

    Like DAD says about listening while 'not standing just in front', tweeters are very directional, unlike your 12" speaker, so if you switch the tweeter on you may end up focussing a lot of HF sound somewhere you can't hear it, but other people can. Step away from the speaker a bit and listen at wherever the tweeter is pointing to appreciate what it may be doing. PS This is why some cabs can be tilted - you won't hear the output of your tweeter if it is pointing at your knees

    This is essentially a Little Mark 250 Black Line head coupled to a 151P cabinet without the tweeter. Used sparingly in a Church setting, so well looked after and in excellent cosmetic condition The 250 Black Line will put out 150W @ 8 ohms and 250W @ 4 ohms The combo is set up to push the 150 W through the 1x15 cab. Weighs in at just over 16kg Dimensions - its a 48cm cube (ok its not exactly that but in the Roqsolid cover its close enough).

    I know that I'm entering the world of 'shutting the door after the horse has bolted' here, but I loved reading through this thread. Great to see all the pictures as the project developed. I've built a number of studios professionally, so if anyone is interested the key to getting really solid walls is different thicknesses of board - ideally plasterboard, fixed back to back. So something like one 12.5mm sheet directly attached to a 9mm sheet. Double that up each side of a batten wall, take care not to have co-incident joins and you can get quite impressive insulation. The weak point is always the door (or window if you have one). Almost impossible to get better than 20db isolation with a single leaf door. Double doors are the answer if you have enough space, or a neat 'bung' as used in the above design!

    Pretty much anything that is streamed has been reduced to a minimum number of bits to squeeze it down the pipes of the internet. Ditto if you listen to DAB radio, or Internet radio. I would suggest that its fine to browse, but not so great to 'listen' - you just won't ever get wide dynamic range because of the delivery format. If you want a good listening experience then its CD, vinyl or an FM radio station that hasn't been Optimoded to destruction.

    Phantom power boxes are fairly easy to come by on ebay if you don't want to have to use batteries. Its just like using an external PSU - but a bit neater. One like this : ARTcessories Phantom III is up for sale at the moment

    Thanks. Slightly broader than most of the Ibanez I've owned, and better feel as far as I'm concerned

    For sale is an Ibanez headless (EHB) 1000 in Pearl White with Ibanez gig bag. Some additional bits and pieces like allen keys, straplocks also. The bass is in excellent cosmetic condition and has been carefully maintained The neat string clamp at the headstock means that you don't have to use double ball end strings, but can put whatever you want on it. Currently strung with roundwound LaBella, but I've used flatwound successfully as well. BT2 pickups, active electronics if you want to use them, otherwise it will work perfectly ok passive Some nice touches like a locking output jack, fully adjustable saddles so you can alter string spacing as well as adjust for correct intonation Very lightweight contoured body - a tad over 3kg Any questions please ask. Pickup from Uxbridge area preferred, but I'll package and courier it if necessary for £20
