    I picked up this same model Demeter a few weeks ago. Owen was very kind to give me his thoughts before I bought it, and I must admit his review was spot on. He said: [i]I plugged several bass guitars in and they all sounded good. no need for excessive EQing, they just worked. Did it colour the sound - Mmmm yes. In a good way. No harshness, or EQ extremes, just solid usable tone. Good headroom and control. [/i] And I couldn't agree more. I'm really pleased with how all my basses sound through this preamp; they just sound [i]right[/i]. Cheers Gareth

    I'd love this, but sadly I have no space for such a beast. It seems like a great deal, plus Chris is a great guy to deal with.

    Not the most reliable test I suspect, as it's self-administered, but useful nonetheless. Can't analyse it scientifically, but it looks like ten years of wearing decent moulded earplugs has served me well. That said, I only started wearing them once I had permanent tinnitus, as evidenced by the total loss of top end (although I believe that isn't unusal for an adult anyway). Good thread; kudos to the OP. Gareth

    Sold, pending payment on collection.

    That Samick looks terrific.

    Just realised these are a tad overpriced, so £15 posted.

    I may be interested, but forum rules now dictate that feelers are no longer allowed; you must state an asking price. cheers Gareth

    Bought a Crown poweramp from Rich. Great price, accurate description and very good communication. Top notch!

    See if [url="http://www.facebook.com/search/?ref=search&q=obbm&init=quick#!/pages/bassic-bits/112410515436620?v=wall&ref=mf"]this[/url] works.

    Thinking of getting two of these, each 4 ohm, to enable me to run each channel of my new pre/power amp setup at full power. Does anyone have any personal experience of these 1x15 cabs? Cheers Gareth

    These are lovely heads and Keith is a top guy to deal with. I only moved mine on as I decided to "rack up" to a Demeter preamp and separate power amp. Very clean, clear head, but with a little more "hair" than the bigger EA heads; great for upright, acoustic, fretless etc. And it really is silly small and light! Cheers Gareth

    [quote name='fatback' post='791683' date='Mar 31 2010, 11:19 AM']I'd be lucky to find an rh450 second hand, I guess. Am I right that the LMK doesn't have a true sweepable parametric?[/quote] There have been a few RH450s in the "for sale" section already, might be worth checking. I owned an LMK and you're right, no sweepable mids - just low mid and hi mid shelving. Good amp though. Cheers Gareth

    [quote name='fatback' post='790564' date='Mar 30 2010, 01:38 PM']EA Doubler seems a bit underpowered at 350W.[/quote] These are 550 watts at 4ohms, 350 at 8, and there is one for sale right here on BC as we speak.

    Ah yes, that model was the first quality amp I ever bought. Top bit of kit and great price too.

    This is brand new and was bought last week to house my new Demeter pre/Crown power amp combo. However, it's too deep for my EA cabs, so I'm going to get a flight case instead. Studiospares spec: [list] [*]Case thickness is 3mm [*]Rackstrip BOTH ENDS [*]Bracing is moulded into the body and lids to provide added rigidity [*]Gasket sunk into the edge of the lid which is compressed by a lip on the body to form a tight seal against dirt and liquids [*]Drawbolt locks are fitted to make the lid shut tight [*]The mounting strip is threaded (M5) so it is impossible to lose caged nuts [*]Case length is 550mm which is slightly longer than most [/list] It cost me £57 last week. I'd like [b]£45 posted (rate = standard parcel)[/b], or collected from London (WC2) or Hampshire (GU34)

    My new Demeter pre has a trim pot next to the tube as well. I assume it's to adjust the gain but have left well alone as it sounds fab as it is.

    [quote name='overwater#1' post='789396' date='Mar 29 2010, 02:11 PM']How much roughly would something like that be setting me back?[/quote] Matt, you know the drill.... if you have to ask, you probably can't afford it
  25. franzbassist
    Don't worry, I just checked, it's 14" deep so too shallow for my needs.
