SOLD - Warwick Hellborg Bass Preamp and Poweramp £1400
LukeFRC replied to dazaudio's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
So so so so good -
I had one of them - the Roland D-bass 210 - I'm not quite sure why I moved it on it was very impressive in the 'ultrA flat" mode. At the time I had a hellborg pre into a poweramp and a ACME B2 which again was even cleaner sounding. Sold them both and ended up with a walkabout which is like the diametric opposite of FRFR - but the MB AC combo is something I would like to try some point

When did this thread get so angry?
-
A lot of PA cabs are designed to cross over to subs. A bass cab will often go lower than a PA cab, because it's designed not to be crossed over. If you want low end then this is a good thing. Some of the nicer PA cabs discussed in this thread are designed to go lower and run without subs. This means you get a DSP controlled bottom end (more controlled than your bass cab) and the high mids/highs are coming out of a much nicer driver too compared to your Bass cab
-
Other thing to try... set the neck pickup with no or little resonance and set a "core sound" - then set the bridge pickup with a fair bit of resonance where it sounds good - for me I end up with the neck fairly open but the bridge cut more but with a nice mid twang coming from the bridge - blend to taste
-
... till next month?
-
Top tip at none on here gave. Set your two pickups freq and resonance. Then live don't touch them and just use the balance control for different sounds.

I have the eq01 in my streamer - it's amazing. Aftrr a few months soaking in tone becomes simpler than with a 3 band eq

surprised this hasn't sold yet! -
there were a set of alto powered drivers that used a eminence 3012 for a while.

There's more than just bass cabs to argue about
LukeFRC replied to Happy Jack's topic in Amps and Cabs
I don't even know what this one is but boy I bet it sounds $11000 https://www.higherfi.com/phono/koetsu-coralstone really do a group of people actually pay this kind of mental money for a hi Fi system? What exactly are they listening to on it? Some album mastered to sound good on Spotify via iPhone earbuds? -
My thought too. To the OP: What is your other amp ?

Wow! It does seem mental. Like do the people who can afford these actually have the time to geek out on audiophile sound? -
Would love this - but no JB to trade -
Reshelling not reselling
-
No doubt compared to reselling and custom moulds - but could comparing it to a new set of Comply foam ear buds...
-
you bought the overwater back after all that time you spent selling it?!
-
the guy in the video was using this stuff - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Proguard-MYO-Mould-custom-earplugs/dp/B006ZLXQ68?th=1 which is being marketed as specific for the task - i'm not sure I would want to put non made for the task stuff in my ears! I'm weighing up if it's worth trying... do I buy some of that stuff or a set of complay (sp?) foam tips?
-
Sold it ages back. Miss it. managed to get hold of a schematic and it's not the Neve or API preamp the marketing dept suggest it is. Does sound good though
-
How did you rate the end results?
-
So I use UE 900s - which are good - but I've used up all the foam tips and need to get more. First any recommendations, and secondly is this man on YouTube stupid or clever?
-
I've used new tones before -nice equal to hibeams sunbeams, prefer fatbeams
-
you're going to be pointed to look at... Line6 helix Zoom B3n when you remark at the price of the Helix a bundle of top end separate pedals for the folk that don't recommend the amp modelling route a sansamp someone will pop up telling you how good their Behringer DI is. It probably is. the IEM thread and probably some others.

thanks dad

I was going to make a really off topic comment about the kinda gig that folk on talkbass play backline wise bare no corralation to gigs I've played or been to, or heard about in the uk ... but then I saw the topic had already detoured off topic
