molan Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 So I've sold my main amp & won't get a new one for a week or so & was wondering what to use at home for the time being. I then had the brainwave of feeding my Sadowsky outboard pre straight into my old EBS power amp power amp. Sounds great! It's one of the old models & if you whack the bass & treble boost up full it really makes a lot of basses actually sound like a Sadowsky as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use a cheap mixer and cast off parts of my hifi system - The amp is ~1970s Technics, the speakers are ~1980s Mission Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennysFord Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 (edited) Good effort. My home setup now consists of Ampeg svx software,my laptop and a Cambridge 2.1 speaker system.It's just the job,nice and simple,sounds great too.

Pookus Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 I really like home set up ingenuity! Its good to experiment with different ways of doing things. That's where fresh ideas and sounds can be generated. I have an 8 track desk with allsorts of stuff patched in (stylophone! and an oscillator thing with knobs on - very Silver Apples).

ped Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 I have a similar setup - a 'noname' 400w a side stereo power amp, digital, which is the size and weight of a small 1u DVD player. I can play my bass right into that and from there into my SWR compact cabs, or plug the Vbass pedal into the poweramp, acting as a stereo pre-amp (but my clean setting is pretty much bypassed anyway!) Preamps? pah! Cheers ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
