    [quote name='Tradfusion' timestamp='1317048999' post='1385950'] Thats a cool rig Sparky... I'm seriously considering the BC212, just cant decide between the micro heads to drive it.... GK MB500, Ampeg PF-500 or the TC BH500 which is in the same price range but is no micro at 30lbs... otherwise a used RH450 or Classic 450... I have a Markbass LMII but I fancy a tone change and will keep it as a backup for the time being... It might work well with the BC212 though.. [/quote] Good luck with this. If my budget would have stretched that bit further I would have gone for the LMII so I'd be interested to hear how you get on with the bc212/LMII combination. Cheers

    I'm using an Ampeg PF-350 with one bc212 so only getting 250w out the head. I play with a hard hitting drummer, guitarist and three singers all matching the drummer's volume at rehearsals. I'm finding my setup loud enough to keep up. The tone of the 12's is great too - especially for the money.

    If you register you can watch the whole gig. Are You Gonna Go My Way isn't the best track... http://www.absoluteradio.co.uk/player/9197/live_music.html

    In the Pearl Jam film there's a bit where an interviewer asks Eddie Vedder something along the lines of 'Does grunge still exist?'. Vedder pauses, rubs his teeth and looks down at his finger as if to check... It's a hard genre to define but I'm almost certain I missed it.

    [quote name='MarshallBTB' post='1330732' date='Aug 7 2011, 11:02 AM']Anyone own/tried these out? I'm looking at the 212, seems good for the money![/quote] I've just bought a second hand TC Electronics BC212 off Moos3h and I'm diggin' it so far. It's only 250w mind you (compared to the 600w GK). And they don't do a 4ohm version. Whether it's an option depends on what you need it for I guess.. At 8ohm I'm only getting 250w out of my amp, but even so, the setup is loud enough to keep up with a hard hitting drummer, guitarist and 3 singers.. with a really nice tone too... Be interested to hear a review if you do end up getting the GK though... Easy

    Hi All, Without even meaning to, I've ended up changing my entire setup!... So up for sale is my Hartke '210XL' 2x10 cab which has served me reliably since I've owned it. The cab is very compact, not too heavy and is in very good condition (Pics to follow later this week). Sounds great on its own for small gigs or paired up with another cab for louder shows. 8Ohm, 200W. Manufacturer's tech info here: [url="http://www.samsontech.com/products/productpage.cfm?prodID=38&brandID=3"]http://www.samsontech.com/products/product...8&brandID=3[/url] Looking for £100 collected from hemel (or meet up somewhere near). Pics to follow. Thanks for looking, Sparky. EDIT: Photos as promised... Marks on the grill aren't as noticable as they look in the pics. Just one tiny nick out of the carpet on the back 2/3 the size of a 5p piece. Slight scuffing on plastic corner protectors. Not immaculate, but still - very good condition (cosmetically) for a used cab... and functions perfectly. Bangin'!

    Picked up a lovely 2x12 cab from James today. Diggin' it so far! Great guy to deal with - good communications - very helpful and sorted me out a speakon-jack adaptor till I get a proper cable sorted! Many thanks James. All the best. Sparky.

    Bought my Trace cab off me! Very good to deal with - efficient and straight up - transfered money as soon as we agreed the sale and then ordered a courier for a day that suited me. All round good experience. Sparky

    Just ordered a PF-350! £250 in Andertons refurb sale! Woo!

    [quote name='Merton' post='1273778' date='Jun 18 2011, 02:19 PM']Or just daisy chain two 8 ohm cabs...[/quote] Please excuse my ignorance, but to daisy chain, do the cabs need an out as well as an input? the Hartke 210xl's I was planning to use only have a single input and no outputs
  15. Sparky
    I was / still am considering this as a compact head option. Just noticed it only has one speaker output though. Whichever head I end up going for, I'd like to be able to use either one Or two cabs depending on situation (without an additional power amp - as the original poster is planning). Speakon to 2No. jack cable - Does that exist?? If not, I'm guessing one would require a 4Ohm cab to make full use of the MB200... Hmmm??
