  1. I might have one - can check next week when I get home
  2. I’m in 4 bands and none of then have managed a single bloody thing yet. Off to King’s Lynn in a fortnight for a little outing though, then it’s back to rehearsing and no gigs for the foreseeable 😔
  3. Now you just need a big wing logo for the Evo 1 cab
  4. Second cab, whilst avoiding the bass boost as it gobbles up power... mids are your friend for being heard.
  5. Yep, my experience exactly with this amp. Lovely thing (which I may have already said 😅)
  6. Gutted to read this, he has been a stalwart on here and been a pleasure to talk to in the past RIP Martin
  7. Hurrah! Nice one - enjoy
  8. Lies! That only has four strings! 😁
  9. Mid life crisis in reverse. Have serious GAS for 2-ohm capable amp and more One10s, just because... But my middle-aged brain is telling me to be sensible, my current rig is more than enough and sounds great, so my credit cards is breathing a little easier...

    What's wrong with me?

      @ead I am contemplating flogging a One10 and getting a Two10, this making my Three10 rig a little easier to carry. Haven’t decided yet as it depends on various other (non-bass-related) financial things sorting themselves over the coming weeks/months. If I do go down that route rather than a third One10, I’ll let you know :)

      Well ping me up if you go for the 3rd One10. I am contemplating replacing one of mine with a 12”. The one I would sell has only had studio use. I ordered it just before lockdown: typical!

      @Obrienp nice one, cheers!

  10. I could learn a thing or five from your cabling underneath the board. Excellent work maestro!
  11. Just to add - there’s really not a huge volume difference between them, it’s more in the power delivery of the 800, it doesn’t run out of steam and this doesn’t suffer from that “class D running out of puff” compression a lot of these tend to suffer from. At least, that has been my experience
  12. Having owned both, I would recommend going for the 800. Its power delivery is effortless and it copes easily with loud rock band gigs without PA support. The 500 is great and plenty loud enough for most situations but I did have to swap it out for my ABM on a gig with the same loud rock band, it couldn’t quite keep up without PA support. There’s very little in it at lower volumes though, they both sound great.
  13. Balls too late 😖
  14. The amp can output 500W so each speaker will get 250W to play with. They can’t output more power than they are fed. Don’t think if it as “limited” though; the speaker power rating is the thermal power and has very little real world bearing on volume or mechanical limits. For that you want to know their sensitivity and excursion really. And very few companies give you both of those bits of information.
  15. Blimey the Pro Neo 112 is £226 😱🤯
  16. Get some Status flats or halfs for it. Either you’ll love them and find some nice cost effective strings, or you’ll think “hmm, nearly there” and then know you can go for the Chromes/LaBellas etc
  17. That would be my choice too
  18. Great amp, insane price!

    I’d agree with @Dood’s (near) closing statement about it working well with the One10s; it really does sound bloody marvellous paired with them. I am using it for a variety of band situations now, I’m not sure how I would have achieved those things without this on the board
  20. My room (plus my son’s I guess… that’s his Alesis kit…)
  21. There’s a form you can fill in to prove that you already owned these when they went out to Italy; ie to show that this isn’t their first import and therefore all customs fees are bollocks. I can’t remember the name of it but my company had exactly this situation with a vehicle which got stuck in France; we almost had a £20K vat bill but for this form. I don’t think it’s a quick easy thing to complete (why make life easy when the government can rely on people to give up and just suck up paying the fees?) but it could be worth looking into. You’ll need all the original receipts etc… I’ll check the name of the form and get the details over tomorrow
  22. Great price for a great cab. One of the best cabs you can buy in my (very) humble opinion
  23. Good cabs! Pics as soon as it arrives please, or it doesn't exist
  24. Calling @Lozz196 and @BassAdder27
