  1. That was not appropriate! Welcome, Christian! Enjoy the banter and the occasional exchange of info. Bert
  2. Nice one! Thanks for doing this. I can send you the measurements for the Rockinbetter if you don't have those.
  3. I'm laughing my lungs out here! £350,000 worth of kit when everyone knows it's mostly placebo, and all you [b]really[/b] need is a few metal discs to put the speaker cables on so they won't have to be on the floor.... Seriously though, must have been quite the Hi-Fi set. Sorry you couldn't enjoy it more, and of course, as you know as well as I do, this system is not 1,000 times better. It's probably noticeably better than a £35,000 system, which again is noticeably better than a £3,500 system.
  4. Welcome to the surface, Connor! ...and breathe! bert
  5. [quote name='Clarky' timestamp='1393799456' post='2384546'] Pretty please, I will feed my cats (Stanley and Snoop Catt) extra tuna if you vote for us [/quote] Not gonna work, you amateur! Now if you could describe in detail the torture that you will not let your cats endure, I think more of us would be willing to vote!
  6. According to what an EBMM guy told me, the contract that the US dealers have with EBMM does have a paragraph about that dealers also are allowed to sell new items abroad after two years. IOW if this bass is old enough, you could still purchase it. You'd probably have to remind them of that paragraph though.
  7. Cool! Congrats with this, man!
  8. Sorry, Pete. I misunderstood the naming conventions established in this thread. Debs
  9. Welcome, Mark! Stevedavemarkbert
  10. Hey SuperVee, Welcome! I'm sure you'll fit right in. [quote name='93supervee' timestamp='1393698939' post='2383543'] pleased to see a great, active forum free of d***heads. [/quote] Dunno about that. We sometimes have heating discussions, and then some people soon start insulting: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/231065-help-with-reducing-damp-in-workshopstudio/"]http://basschat.co.u...workshopstudio/[/url] Anyway, enjoy! bert
  11. [quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1393574920' post='2381962'] 'sorry, but in the meantime I bought this one.' [/quote] Well done!
  12. [quote name='Allie' timestamp='1393584069' post='2382161'] Don't know why I haven't managed to be here earlier. [/quote] Twas those bulky cathode ray tube computer monitors of days yonder! You'd need a double bass case for those.
  13. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1393529376' post='2381573'] how does the STM900 compare with an all-valve amp? Does it cut the mustard? [/quote] Sorry, I can't answer that. Too little experience. But Muzz seems to talk sense, and better puts to words what I felt: that a ShuttleMax or GBE are very easy to dial with, whereas the Streamliners need you to first get to grips with how they work - meaning that in a shop demo situation, one could easily overlook the power of the front panel. Some experimenting at home should soon make it all clear though. That and the unspeakable thing... [size=2](the manual)[/size]
  14. You're welcome. Also, I just remembered there's someone here from just North of Coylton. I'l dig a little, and will report if I do find him. If not, you could always shout out in General Discussion. Many people seem to read there. Edit: Found them. The guy from Irvine is DanTheMusicman (Daniel). He hasn't been active lately, but in 2012 worked in a music shop in Irvine. Also, in Beith you have Funky Dunky (Duncan). Before you ask: no, I can't do this trick for the whole world. It's just that I tend to notice when people say they're from Ayrshire or thereabouts - as I've been there several times and am quite fond of some folks I know in Coylton.
  15. [quote name='EssentialTension' timestamp='1393529409' post='2381574'] I had the badge nicked off my Skoda. Work that one out! [/quote] It now sits proudly on a Silver Wraith radiator, and the car owner relaxes in the knowledge that the Spirit of Ecstasy is safely at home.
  16. But... but... how long is that string angle exactly?
  17. Hi H, and welcome to B.A.! Enjoy our company! (oh, and our twelve step program) bert
  18. Exactly my point. Take the 900 now. You can always sell it again without too much loss. BTW and FWIW, I asked Mark (that other one) to send me the best sounding one of the 600 and 900, and he chose the 900. I assume the extra headroom does a Class D good.
  19. Hey Terry, Welcome! I'm pretty sure there's another guy from Kilmarnock and one from Irvine or thereabouts on BC. There's certainly one from Greenock, but that may be stretching it a little seeing as how close Glasgow is to you. Anyway, shout out and someone will certainly answer. Enjoy the bass! bert (another noob) Edit: Dub Junkie is from Kilmarnock, and Biskitbass is from South Lanarkshire. You could PM them.
  20. Hey Allie, Welcome! I hope your sleeping in the Westone's case was comfy for you, and didn't do any damage to the bass. Enjoy the banter! bert
  21. Yeah, but can it be so much cheaper than a Streamliner 600 or even than a 900? I think the Veyron T model may go for 500 quid.
  22. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1393499790' post='2380995'] fnarr-fnarr (cont. p94) [/quote] I'm looking forward to page 94! Shame we're only on page 2. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1393499790' post='2380995'] has Behringer cloned the Streamliner yet?? [/quote] No, they haven't. They use reddish LEDs instead of blue ones: [URL=http://s1170.photobucket.com/user/basstractor1/media/BugeraVeyronBV1001Tfront_zps27aa6c23.png.html][IMG]http://i1170.photobucket.com/albums/r525/basstractor1/BugeraVeyronBV1001Tfront_zps27aa6c23.png[/IMG][/URL]
