  1. Ashdown have form for announcing new products months before they're available. I remember the original RM800 being announced, I ordered one immediately and it arrived about 9 months later...
  2. And if I get to play through one it’ll have a knob trying to make noises with it too 😀
  3. I think you’re in the clear. Mainly just so we still have someone still standing in this 😀 PS love the bass
  4. Perfect, thanks!
  5. I would love to try one of these!
  6. The Rolls Royce of bass amps; I have the Blue Rock which is similar I believe (different preamp). The power amp is effortlessly powerful, the fan is silent (I mean absolutely silent even after a hard 3 hour gig) and the EQ is ridiculously flexible. Superb amps

  8. That is sexy
  9. Oh, Spector do a Bantam 5er now which is 32”
  10. This one 😀
  11. I am not going to lie, that thought crossed my mind too! But given Mike’s order book I decided against it, and accidentally bought an ACG fretless from Alan instead. As you do 😆
  12. How does it compare to the BF Two10?
  13. Both the options above are sound. My initial thought was a Super Compact as @chris_b said, but the Epifian cabs are great shout by @Gareth Hughes too.
  14. That is lovely, it’s pretty much exaclty what I’d go for in a Lionel too. Enjoy (when it arrives!)
  15. Not surprised they didn’t last long 😅
  16. Ashdown RM610 cab for £124?!! https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/ashdown-rm-610t-evo-bass-cabinet Ashdown Shavo head for £314?!! https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/ashdown-head-22-shavo-signature-600w-rackmount-head You can thank me by paying me the difference 😄
  17. These are great cabs. Very loud, clear, full blooded noises. And Joe is a good egg, albeit with far too many P basses 😀
  18. Yep, I've never used an Active input, always use the passive input and adjust the Gain to suit.
  19. Get this, if you don’t like it you won’t lose much/anything moving it on..:
  20. I’m mainly a rock player and so like warmth, punch, some grit, but also some clarity. The RM800 is a good class D head for all of that, especially paired with the Two10. I think it’s a huge step change from the MiBass heads. I only moved mine on because I managed to snag a Glockenklang Blue Rock which is incredible.
  21. I didn’t read your first post properly - a Two10 and RM5/800 won’t sound boomy at all, as long as you don’t go crazy on the bass EQing of course I basically ran that rig* last year and it was glorious. *two One10s but the difference is negligible.
  22. Could be the cab too… Personally found the Rootmaster 5/800 heads to be very good. Punchy, loud, clear, a good warm core tone, drive option is nice too.
  23. Class D is solid state... This is solid state class AB - big toroidal transformer in the PSU and MOSFET AB power amp. Class D is a power amp topology generally using MOSFETs as well, often used with Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) as between them they lower the weight.
  24. Jerry Lee Lewis was kinda Rock’n’Roll… 🤦🏼‍♂️
