I have been waiting for 3 months for these to arrive. While not unhappy with my previous rig, everything I had read suggested this would be a very practical solution for EUB work with a big band. I now have one sat in my living room. Bass Direct rang me up as soon as they arrived and had a combo set up to try out when I drove down yesterday. Having used Jeff Genzler's gear for a while now I just bought one on trust. On a slightly touchy note, BD occasionaly comes in for a bit of criticism.
