Yep I’m hearing good things about Tecamp Puma 

Just need to find one 

Looking for suggestions for clean sounding class D amps 500w or greater 

So the opposite of warm and vintage 

I know the Genzler MG800 is clean, so is my TE1200 and EBS Reidmar but looking for other ideas ? 

Anybody using a Jack lead from the TX and popping the NUX in a pouch or strap mounting ? 

Ok in the past as a user of Shure GLXD16+ I was convinced it t was the best wireless and I’m certain it is however I’ve just got the very neat NUX 5.8ghz set for £130 and I’m pretty impressed so far. 
 

Any gigging folk on here using it and any issues ?

I think from your description that you’ve made the correct choice. If you want to be sure, you’re welcome to try my ST. I’m only in Colchester

Hi that’s very kind of you 

Do you feel a picked played PBass mostly rock etc will suit the ST ? 
 

I need a full deep tone with clarity 

Also have you had any concerns about amp head moving off the cab ? 
 

Also I see in your profile pic you use an Orange Terror bass head ??

Do they pair well ? 
 

Im tempted to get one 

I will be playing with a pick so the low end fullness will be a benefit I feel 

Yes I decided the ST would be more my thing and I can tweek my EQ but I couldn’t add clarity if the cab was warm and vintage ( 10’s ) so a true clear sounding cab is a better fit. 
 

Now I have to be patient while they build it !! 

UPDATE 

Ive amended my order to the SuperTwin 

I like the clarity and more “mids” kind of accurate sound 

10’s are lovely and warm but darker I think 

 I used a JJ ECC83S in my Ashdown ABM600 EVO IV and it was perfect 

Ok folks and users of BF cabs 

Between the 12’s and the 10’s which has the better clarity of note ? 
 

I’ve ordered a BF310 which I understand is warm and vintage but I’m thinking I should have gone SuperTwin ?

Playing rock mostly and I need clarity and depth and I’m wondering if you ST owners would agree it’s better choice ? 
 

I will be using the TE1200 amp with a PBass fingerstyle and RW strings with a clean tone 

Boss GEB-7 bass EQ pedal like new 

Velcro on bottom and original base included, boxed 

Price includes U.K. shipping 

For myself and my mostly rock material I play, the warmer 10’s seemed the logical choice compared to the 12’s

I play a PBass with a pick so I don’t need any additional clarity but I need warmth and depth and a smooth tone. 
 

The 310 seems the logical one cab solution to have the power yet sensible on stage size and ease of transport. 
 

Just ordered the BF310 cab ! 
 

Black grille plus cover 👍

Just ordered the BF 310 cab instead !! 
 

I think the 10” speakers will suit my needs better and this format will be perfect as a single use cab 

Would you say SuperTwin would match better than say 310 cab ?

Regarding compressor I found that you can clearly hear ( especially if using a pick ) the high band subdue the treble frequencies as you increase it clockwise and adds more depth to the high string notes 

I keep the low band around 9 o clock 

I have a friend who had the same issue, turn it off at a gig, turn it back on and nothing !! It’s like it shutdowns ! 

I found you can definitely hear it tame the low and high frequencies if you exaggerate the settings to detect it compressing 

In still not sure if pre or post is my preferred so I use Pre mostly and low set around 9pm ( mild ) and high around 2pm  to take off any ice pick trebles !! 
 

Still in cab dilemma ( the Vanderkley went back to the seller as it had a loose brace and rattled ) 

Still thinking about SuperTwin though 

They don’t appear to be that popular for some reason ? 

Hi all TE1200 users !

Where do you set your dual band compressor ?

I keep mine Pre EQ and I think around 9 o clock low band and 2o clock high band.

Interested to know other folks settings 

I have my input gain around noon and EQ approx flat with Pre Shape engaged when playing with a pick ( more depth to tone ) 

Just for fun what are in your own opinion the top 3 bass amps for gigging and why ?

My top 3 are 

Trace Elliot TE1200

very good usable EQ and compressor and loud enough for any rig. Great sounding tone and just seems right for any style. 

Ampeg V4B 

Loud enough with enough cabs and wonderful all valve sound albeit a heavy lump 

Ashdown ABM600 

Great EQ and tone, powerful head and a workhorse amp but starting to be a little long in the tooth now with an average to poor compressor and Sub feature that most never use. Best back up service in the business 

what about your suggestions ?

Hi sorry for the delay

 

yes it’s a variable tweeter

yes Big twin it’s not that much bigger than a super 

 

re shipping where do you live 

Ipswich Suffolk 

Since waiting I found a lovely Vanderkley 210LNT 

I now know why folk rave about them ! 
 

Single use cab sounds amazing 

If there was shipping I would probably have purchased this 

Looks grubby !! Avoid !!

Welcome to the Vanderkley club. You’ve described perfectly the sound these cabs make. One piece of advice, experiment with the tweeter setting. I did my usual “don’t like tweeters, control all the way off” and I was missing a trick. It’s really possible to dial in the Vanderkley tweeter without it ever getting dominant or “spitty”.

Thank you 

It’s a loud cab too so I’m hoping it’s all I need with my TE1200 

Clarity is amazing
