razze06 Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I bagged the last available puma 350 head on my way to a gig... Tried the fenomenal 1x12 combo in the shop, inquired about any puma heads still lying about, helpful staff saw one last one in the glasgow shop, out came my Visa, and the rest is history. Awaiting delivery now... Seriously tempted by one of their smaller cabs, after humping my Ampeg cab up and down from the second floor all by myself.

[/quote] Well i used to have an ampeg svt410he and svt115E, from that i went to the walkabout scout.........kinda miss the ridiculous beafy sound a huge cab gives even though i can't fault the walkabout scout. The radiator speaker on it is amazing! so im now going back to the big stuff! I don't even know where im going to put it...................that would be far too sensible to think out before i got it!

obbm Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I have to confess that a Pleasure (Board) is all mine. It's just been delivered. I'm really looking forward to trying it and seeing if it makes it easier for me to play without deafening the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen smaller versions of this in Germany when I was at MusicMesse in Frankfurt a few years ago. They had a type of ButtKicker that clamps on to a drummers stool but also a small version for a bass player to put his foot on. If it works then I will make myself a small one.

Flanker Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I received my L610 today and it sounded amazing with my Puma 500 head........amazing!!!.............until an hour into band practise when it started sounding fuzzy like an overdriven sound so I'm assuming a speaker has gone?????? I hadn't thought about it but after the event I remembered reading that it's just as easy to blow a speaker by not enough power as by too much! Have I been stupid trying to drive a huge powerful cab with a 500W head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used my 550w Thunderfunk with a Tech 6x10 with no issue and you'd have had a bit of warning if that had been too much for the cab... yours ears would have bled!

Too little power can blow tweeters but it can't blow woofers. Probably a faulty speaker. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
