  1. True, but I'm limited for space in my little studio and this was for sale at a price that was almost equal to any other 2x8 cab so had to be done. (And it matches my AT410+ which is obviously super important!)
  2. And arrived it has... Just crazy light these things...
  3. I think you need to have posted a few times or have been a member for a few days before the sales page 'unlocks'. Stops dem pesky bots. 😁
  4. Get a Kemper. There's 18,000 profiled amps available from their user exchange website. You can store thousands on the amp itself and set them all to the same volume/EQ if you want to ensure no volume dip/jump when switching.
  5. Picked up a GR AT410+ last weekend, absolutely fantastic. The sound is pretty transparent - I'm using it with a Kemper Profiler head and it really articulates the difference in rig profiles very well indeed. Being able to switch between profiles from a Mesa 400+, Aguilar DB751, Markbass TA501 and Darkglass 900 with a single stomp and for the cab to really showcase the differences is superb. In fact I liked it so much I bought a GR AT208 yesterday to keep upstairs in my little studio. I think GR have re-set the benchmark with these cabs.
  6. 'Accidentally' bought a GR AeroTech 208 cab from Bass Direct yesterday... 😬 8kg, 500w, 8 Ohm. Should be good to keep in my little upstairs studio. Damn these GR cabs!!! Super light and sounds great... definitely can't be buying any more though!
  7. There was a guy on Gumtree selling 4 of these all with soft cases for £400 for the lot... You could just buy these and sell 3 of them and keep the 4th, you'll make your money back on 3 easy.
  8. In the shelves current position, what's the maximum height of an item you can store on the shelf without it clipping the underside of a 3U amp that would take up the rest of the slots? Ta.
  9. PM'd
  10. 7.5 years. This has to hold the record! £125 is pocket change for this. If I had an acoustic bass I'd have this. Surely someone will take this at £125?
  11. I agree with both of you! I don't like their cabs or heads! 😄 Though I am a massive fan of the B-Social... I have two that get used for hours everyday.
  12. Honestly, the kemper is a bit of a faff, but... it's only really taken me 2 hours to get to grips with the functionality and I didn't read the manual (which I could have done!) Once you understand the basics, it's pretty freaking cool. The one tip I'd say, which I found out just because 'that's the way I'd have designed it' is that you need to hold your foot on a stomp button, keep your foot on the stomp button, then hold an effect button on the amp to assign that effect to that stomp, you can assign up to 4 effects to each stomp so by pressing your chosen stomp you can simultaneously activate 4 stomps. It's truly a remarkably piece of kit!!
  13. Bought a Kemper Profiler Power Rack and Controller from Thommy yesterday, we met in a seedy car part as is the correct way to conduct a basschat deal, everything was super smooth and all the gear is in excellent condition as described! I'd be more than happy to deal with him again, another credit to basschat!
  14. If you have any intention of getting two of them, then go 8 ohm. But I think realistically one 1200w 410 is sufficient for most occasions!
  15. The 4 ohm version as it's what Bass Direct had in stock. The Kemper will handle a 4 ohm load at 1000w as well as an 8 ohm load at 600w and a 16 ohm load at 300w. It has a built is wattage limiter so it automatically shuts off if the load becomes too much. The power amp section they use is an ICE 1000A, so it's plenty powerful safely at 4 ohm for pretty much most situations!
  16. Could ways get a Kemper Profiler Power Rack - just getting used to mine but the bass valve profiles (Aguilar DB751, Mesa 400+, Ampeg SVT etc) are pretty damn spot on.
  17. I'm now running this with a newly acquired Kemper Power Rack and Controller obtained from @thommydonuts earlier today. Only ran it at 'house' volume but it sounds fairly epic. The Darkglass 900 and Aguilar DB751 profiles are great, and the on board effects are, well, comprehensive to say the least! @la bam - It's an odd one, the weight makes you feel like it's fragile, but it really isn't! My prior Mesa rig weighed near 140kg with the covers and my Helix, this rig is 25kg with rack case, cab cover and pedal while being just as (if not much more!) versatile.
  18. Picked this up from Bass Direct yesterday... Well, more accurately @Bunion picked it up for me as the M25 was shut due to am accident. Anywho, here it is! The world's lightest 4x10 cab. 1200w with a tweeter and only 15kg. Will be giving it a test run later today, but it looks great and is an absolute pleasure to move around at a mere 15kg! Incredible.
  19. I don't understand the trepidation behind not wanting to give a picture of yourself to a company like Reverb when 99% of the population plaster the interweb with pictures of themselves through social media. If you're one of those that swerve social media (such as myself!) then fair enough, but there still probably hundreds of sites out there that still have information on you, these days it's almost entirely impossible to avoid unless you live in a cave.
  20. You sir are a liar!!! It's a well know fact that you can very carefully and neatly roll up or fold over a cable or wire of any kind, place it in a bag or simply leave the room for 10 seconds, and upon removing it from the bag or re-entering the room the cable or wire will be in some kind of un-untanglable knot. Fact.
  21. I wasn't interested because there wasn't 4 of them.
  22. This would be perfect to really finish off your spine after carry my (well, yours now!) two Powerhouse 4x10s up the stairs!
  23. @Bunion - you know you want to add this to your recent acquisition!
  24. You said you wouldn't talk about that!
  25. I bet! You've earned yourself a sherry or two! My new cab simply floats itself upstairs. 😜
