    If you'd posted this 8 hours earlier I'd have bought it instead of getting a Demeter pre and power amp. Bum...

    [quote name='obbm' post='779800' date='Mar 19 2010, 02:11 PM']There are very few power amps that bridge into 4-ohms. Most QSC do however. I used to have a PLX1602, it was excellent and bridgeable into 4-ohms. 2U x 19-inch.[/quote] The guys at Crown tell me their XLS series are ok at 4 as well, even thought they don't list it on their site!

    Thanks chaps. Yes, familiar with Powersoft but just dismissed them as being out of my price range (for now). The 1u light weight amp goal isn't critical; 2u is fine, new or used, ideally something reasonably light that is lower powered in stereo but stable bridged at 4 and 8 ohms, putting 800 and 400 watts out respectively.

    Hello folks OK, I have two cabs, both 8 ohms, a 1x12 and a 2x10 rated 350 and 500 watts respectively. What would be a good power amp to put with these? I've heard from various sources that MOSFET amps are best for bass, but I have been using digital amps for a while and not thought they lacked anything; in fact the bridged Peavey DPC1400X I used to have used bridged into an Epifani 2x12 was the best tone I have ever had! So, I am open to Class D, and in fact a light 1u power amp would be my ideal option. I'm happy to get a lower powered stereo amp and run it bridged, or buy a mono power amp, to get the requisite degree of power and headroom. Ideally I'd like to get something for under £300, so used is probably the most likely route. I'd prefer a name brand, such as Crown or QSC, and have seen good prices on the XLS402 (can these run bridged at 4 ohms) and PLX 1602. Any thoughts? Cheers Gareth

    Sold, pending the usual.

    On hold for someone while they check their finances.
  7. franzbassist
    Probably won't sell anyway as the market is SO slow right now.....

    Hi Jan Rather than constantly creating new posts to sell the same items, why not just bump the original? Cheers Gareth

    Much as I love this amp, a Demeter setup is calling me, so with some reluctance I am selling my Euphonic Audio Doubler. This is pretty much brand new, having been gigged once and rehearsed with twice. New UK price is £599, I'm looking for [b]£505 posted[/b]. Weighs just 1.2kg (2lb 10oz). Full details on the EA website [url="http://www.eaamps.com/index.php?p=doubler&m=products"]here[/url], and a copy of the manual is [url="http://www.gollihurmusic.com/pdfs/manuals/goll_micro_doubler_manual.pdf"]here[/url]. No trades thanks, unless you have a Demeter HBP1 preamp kicking around. Tryouts in NE Hampshire welcome, or collection in Central London. Cheers Gareth

    Hi Neil Yup, still here. Cheers Gareth

    Dare I ask the weight of this bad boy?
  13. franzbassist
    Nothing to see here, move along....
  14. franzbassist
    Whoa, how sexy is that!!!!!
  15. franzbassist
    As it says up top, what are they like? Realistic option as a tube pre, or only really any good as a overdrive effect?
  16. franzbassist
    Although I have had a couple of expressions of interest for this cab, given the total lack of interest in the 1x12 I also have for sale I've decided to just keep them both.
  17. franzbassist
    I've had zero interest in this cab so am just going to keep both it and the 2x10 and mix and match them at gigs as needed.

    [quote name='jim_bass' post='774409' date='Mar 14 2010, 04:20 PM']Does anyone else have this problem... I fit strap locks to all my basses (and guitars) after dropping a few whilst playing. Problem is that on both of my current basses the screw keeps coming loose. I tighten it up every time I play, but after an hour it is loose again. I'm now paranoid that the screw is going to come out. I'm thinking of either using wood glue to glue the screw in or trying to find a bigger screw (but I've done that already and it still comes loose).[/quote] Do you mean the screw that holds the pin to the body? If so, it sounds like the hole is now too big; a bit of toothpick and some would glue should sort that no problem. Gareth

    [quote name='StanS' post='774347' date='Mar 14 2010, 03:04 PM']Used about 4 times, so "as new". No longer required. PC software, leads, stand etc. In original box. Cost £99. Bargain at £70 P&P and insurance, small extra charge at cost price[/quote] Looks interesting. How old is it, and do you have the original receipt?
  20. franzbassist
    bump

    bump

    If it helps, I sold my LMK for £425 after no interest at all at £475. A couple have followed since at the same price, so the £350-75 bracket sounds right.
  23. franzbassist
    Some serious interest, but currently still available.

    [quote name='theosd' post='771518' date='Mar 11 2010, 12:49 PM']If I could find a buyer for my SR5 I'd be very interested in this...[/quote] That would be good.

    Steve bought a gig bag off me. Prompt payment and good communications. Nice....
