I plugged my new BAM200 into this speaker cabinet (Sound Town 2x10 also new) and am getting very little sound out of it. This is with both gain and volume set at max. Is this a mismatch or is something faulty? https://www.soundtown.com/products/bgc210or Okay I am officially an idiot. After swapping out amps, cables and then basses, the last was what made me realize that the battery for the active circuitry in the first bass (also brand new) tested was dead. But that brings up another question though, how do I keep the battery from draining so quickly (I'm new to active basses)? Will unplugging the instrument cable from the bass shut down the circuitry and safe battery life?
