Merton

Thanks chaps! kodiakblair is very kindly taking on this one for me but if we hit any complications I'll be back on here

That could work! Will see what the seller thinks and let you know - cheers!

Great work!

There's a bass-related toy I quite fancy on Gumtree but it's a bit far from Surrey for me to collect personally... I'd arrange pay you the value of the amp and some extra for your hassle and packing, then arrange a courier from you to me. I could just take that risk with the Gumtree seller but I'd prefer to work this through someone known and trusted on here if possible

The CTM is very very good, IMO - frankly I wish I'd never sold the one I had. It's nothing like the Trace V-Type preamp from what I can remember of the Trace, not that that is a good or a bad point. They're just different. But yes, I would happily buy another CTM if I could.

[quote name='lowhand_mike' timestamp='1433859926' post='2794616'] is it a £2500 edge? [/quote] No. Hence why I'm selling my BTA

Yes you can hear the difference, live onstage. I did an A/B comparison of my ABM and BTA and the BTA has that valve "heft" from the valve power amp. The ABM is very close to it but the BTA does have the edge

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1432981408' post='2786719'] Mert, I'm not sure I'd get away with basses on the living room wall. You're much braver than me to try that one on. [/quote] I'll let you know when I lose

[quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1432980735' post='2786712'] The wife has her own "messes" stored around the house so we're quits. [/quote] Must remember this post when arguing with Mrs Mert about my basses going on the living room wall of our new house

[quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1432842256' post='2785577'] Is there room to add another socket in parallel on the cab connector plate? [/quote] Another good call - I did this on one of my Mi10 cabs

Ask our very own OBBM to make you a box like Clauster showed you

[quote name='eude' timestamp='1432631372' post='2783315'] This thread is NOT helping... I can you mark it as "inappropriate"?... [/quote] I suspect your own thread in a couple of months will cause me problems just as this one is Lovely pair of basses

[quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1432662106' post='2783735'] Be reasonable what you expect from even 2x110 outside, particuarly. If your 110 is 8ohms...don't add a 210 at 8 as you will unbalance the signal in 110 and 210... For that sort of gig, I'd add a 212, but even then, I'd expect the amp to be running ragged, tbh... Maybe a 4 ohms 212 will maximise things, but outside gigs ask a LOT from a bass rig [/quote] A decent 212 should cope well enough but I'd agree with this on the whole

Daft idea

[quote name='obbm' timestamp='1432200127' post='2779041'] Not according to my collection of Trace brochures Martin. They are both shown as being 2-channel 300-watt + 300-watt. [/quote] Oh, fair enough. I was only aware of the mono 7-band version

[quote name='Francis Pettifer' timestamp='1432158151' post='2778806'] The ah600 features 2 300 watt power amps in one case. Each amp will deliver 300watts rms into a 4 ohm load.. Under no circumstances should the 2 amplifier outputs be connected together. Each output is designed to drive an individual speaker enclosure. It is quite feasible for each output to easily drive 2 8 ohm cabinets wired in parallel, hence 4 ohms to each channel. Therefore you can drive up to 4! 8 ohm speakers in this way. If you activate the built in electronic crossover, the left hand Chanel drives the low frequency cabs, and the right hand channel drives the higher frequency cabs. Do this, and your on stage sound will be fantastic. I've owned one since 1993, and they are a totally brilliant amp, particularly if fronted by the gp12smx per amp. [/quote] That's the 12 band head - the OP has the 7 band head which is a mono 600W head.

Tasty

Congratulations! (you git )

I want a bass with the Uber pickups now Very nice bass Cameron, welcome to the ACG club

[quote name='stevie' timestamp='1431880469' post='2775838'] Well they're playing a proper team, what do they expect? [/quote] I was hoping for a repeat of the FA Cup match result :'( Edit - there's still hope.....
