If elderly, or managing any health condition, please ignore the following. 1: Place amp beside your bed. 2: Every morning when you get up, stub your toe on said amp and curse yourself for being daft enough to take advice from strangers on the internet. 3: Wait, that's not supposed to happen - place the amp a bit further from your bed than that. 4: Every morning, when you get up, lift the amp to chest height. Once. 5: Carry on with the rest of your day. 6: Once step 4 becomes habitual, add another rep. 7: Once step 6 becomes habitual, add another rep. 8: Once step 7 becomes habitual, add another rep. 9: Once step - hang on, you see where this is going, right? ... .... ..... X: Once your significant other notices the effect on your physique enough that you're getting more nookie, come back here and laugh at the idea of getting rid of the piece of fitness equipment that occasionally doubles as an amp 😜 If you still want to reduce weight, the Yamaha DBR series are often mentioned as the minimum many pro sound people would recommend for sound quality - they're a little more expensive than the Alto TS but I'd be confident they'd sound better - that being said I've never used an Alto (and a DBR only extremely briefly) so take that with a grain of salt.

Hi, Not quite as smooth as the Pulse 10, the Beyma 10CMV2 looks quite good for a small cab, and is ~20 quid cheaper, FWIW.

Thanks all, nice to see some people from the right end of the country 😜

Hello All, fit like? I'm David, from Aberdeen in Scotland. Been playing electric bass on & off for ~3 decades, done some church stuff but current musical interests are mostly folk, rock & classical. Not currently playing out, just dabbling at home. Mostly interested in the amps side of things, as I do AV/live sound work as the "day job". Looking forward to some interesting discussions. Cheers, D.
