Why would you go to all that trouble Jack? When this elegant and simple solution has already been devised...

It will be immense. As @Lozz196 says eq one for bottom, one for top and you are in the wonderful world of biamping. Buy an inexpensive crossover and the world becomes even more exciting. Trust me it will be amazing.

So ... magic then!

Um. Am I the only one can see that video 👆. Showing a man playing the air? With sticks 😕? Only no one has commented on it. And I want to be sure I'm actually seeing it and it's not the final piece of my breakdown slotting into place.

Yeah, I've had to take daytime work too @Bluewine. Unfortunately have developed a medical situation which makes late nights really difficult too. So on top of lockdown I have to contend with that. A guitarist friend who is a full time musician has spent lockdown working at a Hermes depot to pay his rent. He absolutely hates it and now will never send an instrument via a courier ever again. He was told off on his first day for being too careful with the parcels!

I'm bringing a student along. Only had about two lessons. Hell of a singer mind

Oh wait that's MJ Hibbet. Sorry Carry on.

WHAT? YOU WERE IN THE VALIDATORS AAAAAAAARGH

Used to love Q when it first came out. We subscribed at the bar I ran and had quite an impressive, well thumbed collection by the time I left 13 years later. Sadly I suspect the above description is all too accurate.

Sweet

I am going all battery currently have mishmash of different solutions on my boards but I am going to tidy it all up with two of the 35 quid Harley Bentons. Everything I've ever had with HB on the label has been first class, and the power/pound ratio looks good to me.

I've changed it now to stewblack'n'backer

That sucks Andy, keep your head up mate.

Sadly Chris until I understand the condition, what limits it puts on me, that decision is out of my hands. Even folk who've had it for years and have worked out how to live a virtually normal life can wake up one morning and just like that, realise they're going nowhere that day. Band leader can't organise around me if she never knows I'm going to be there or not. But for now she is talking deps and waiting for me to 'get better ' - if only it were that simple. Time will tell, meanwhile they're cracking on without me.

I played with one of my 'part time' bands yesterday. Boy was that good therapy. Mellow set with a couple of the guys out, so drummer used cajon and I stripped back to more rythmic, basic playing. We were outside early start and finish, and a largish crowd were sat relaxing in the sun and were highly appreciative. When I get on top of this something else will come along, just need patience.

I'd be happy for you to borrow mine and try it but I see you're possibly a little bit too far to the north and east of me.

Hi, short answer : Yes. Slightly long winded answer is I used to use mine for small jam sessions and really small venues . there was one time I turned up at a pub to find it was way bigger than I'd been led to believe. I only had the 208 with me and although I rode it pretty hard, it kept up with a 7 piece band including full drum kit. However.... when I ran it with a single 10" extension cab it was seriously good. Lovely full sound, plenty of volume. Compressor in the tone print otherwise clean signal.

Had an afternoon gig outside the Tap Social in Oxford yesterday. Used my RM500 12" combo with a 12" extension. So RM through two by twelve, effectively. It sounded righteous. The singer from one of my other bands was there to watch and said it was a perfect bass sound. Round and full of bottom but a nice cutting top. My sound not my singer. Never an easy gig for bass kit, outdoors, no PA support, but man it sounded good. Small, easy to load and the volume barely above bedroom levels. Very, very impressed.
