[ashevans09]

Hi there,

Just done a quick search and it's yielded nowt, but is there a bass version of those little mini rigs you can attach to your belt?

In this kind of vein:

short reply. no.

bass simply requires too much area and movement to get a good sound out of a speaker that small. there's a brand called pignose (i think) that do small amps (around 8 by 5 by 4 inch ish) that aparently don't sound awfull with bass. and they run on batteries.

I just use a guitar one... it certainly doesn't sound good at all, but that would just be impossible...

These are quite cool. You can't get much volume out of them but they make a bass audible over acoustic guitars etc.
But, take the amplifier part of out it and bung a jack socket on it, then pair with a BFM omni 10.5 and......



It's an awesome mini rig

I've been doing some work with folding speaker cabs, on the principle that you're carrying around a big box of air that's not needed until the speakers are working. Bracing is a big problem though - getting a cab to fold up to half its original size and yet still be stiff enough to sound good is something I've not cracked yet.
