[quote name='acidbass' post='1330873' date='Aug 7 2011, 12:56 PM']Hartke Kickback 12 is a great amp, but I recall some PA engineers using a seperate DI with mine as apparently the onboard one was a little noisy.[/quote] Do you find the 12 loud enough for you? Also, I'll be standing right on top of mine, do you get an even balance?

Hi all, Can anyone recommend a decent kick back monitor cab? Either a combo or stand-alone? If a combo, is the DI output anygood? Thanks

Obviously I have led a sheltered life. Never heard of them! Doesn't seem to be much info out there either. Has anyone any thoughts and feelings about them?

Hello to all, What is the bass that Ed is playing at 03:54 onwards? Any ideas? I can't make out the name on the headstock.....

Ear plugs and more time away from the stands I think if I go (looks like EBS freak doesn't want to come with me right now, he will though ) Just go through to the theatre area for the performances at the given times. I guess it depends who Stevie has lined up too.[/quote] London show bad??? It took me 4 hours to get there, wanted to see and try as much as I could. Lasted just over an hour! I had even taken a day off work to go. Really disappointed. I've never been to the Manchester one and from all your posts it seems it's going to be exactly the same. Is it really worth it?

Anyone use a Protec Contego gig bag? Any good? Trusted?

Similar to how PA systems operate with each amp driving a set of cabs. You can then adjust volume to each pair of cabs to suit each venue. Gives a touch more flexibility. i.e. bass, mid, horn volumes if that makes sense. One question though is WHY ? Surely the SWR is more than loud enough on stage anyways. At 600W that is by far pretty loud. If you can't hear yourself with current set up is there something amiss with your EQ. Now curious as to final solution / outcome ?? Cheers Dave[/quote] The problem I have is that the last couple of gigs, although larger sized venues, the stage space was tiny, especially with our full compliment. As such I was standing right in front of the 410 so the sound was going right through me. I was literally playing blind whilst watching the glasses on the bar jump up an down !!!! Yes, my eq needs honing in, but I never want to be in that position again. God knows what I was playing, whether it be right or wrong, I was way out of my comfort zone. Not a nice place to be at all. Different speaker placement of my 410 would obviously help but what I am after is to be able to have my own monitor that is MINE, nobody elses so that I can adjust it for me. The 410 then can be set by the sound guy level wise and very much ignored by me during our set. Am I going about this the right way???

[quote name='ThomBassmonkey' post='1264899' date='Jun 11 2011, 01:52 PM']My advice would be to get a small head. Something like the GK MB200 would be perfect, it only puts out 200w at 4Ohms anyway, it should have enough beef to power one 8Ohm 2x10 for monitoring and it's so small you wouldn't need to take anything extra. It'd also work as a backup head if something goes wrong with your main head. It's a much more convenient and practical solution to selling half of your current gear then having to find another combo that potentially could be bigger and heavier than what you're currently using.[/quote] Thanks All, I have just this second placed an order for a GK MB200. £206, it's worth taking the gamble.

Thanks for all your comments and help. I know what you mean about going through the PA but for the smaller venues they prefer me under my own support. Going through a line / DI out into a small combo ? Why the hell didn't i think of that ???? Thanks Skankdelvar and everyone else for the assistance. Gallien Krueger 210 BLX cab for sale in MarketPlace. £75 any takers???
