[quote name='sunburstjazz1967' timestamp='1455831958' post='2982894'] I can't imagine there is a venue on earth that has a capacity of 2500 with monitors worse than your average 500 watt bass rig? The highest live volumes I've encountered have been practice rooms and the quietest have ALWAYS been the biggest venues! I've used a 1x12 cab in front of a few thousand people with no problems at all. [/quote] Couldn't agree more, I placed demontfort hall in Leicester a while back with a 112 cab but when jamming at a rehearsal room with a blues trio a 212 was not enough! Go figure🤓

Maybe the op should call Alex and ask him😏

[quote name='cheddatom' timestamp='1455791712' post='2982412'] I always use IEMs but I still won't play the gig with DB monitors - I need them to hear the match over my IEMs [/quote] Do you play Wembley often?

[quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1455757214' post='2982252'] A lot of bass amps do have hpfs... As do a lot of onboard preamps in basses. Some don't. They are the problematic ones. The reason a lot of monitors don't sound great for bass is that they aren't great monitors. Great monitors are great for bass... It's just that great monitors aren't commonplace. It's the first saving to be had in a PA setup. IEMs not good for bass? Me and my JHA Roxannes would argue with you over that til the cows come home. Those IEMs develop more bass than any other setup I've known and enable me to hear everything exactly how I want. There's no wedge that can do that for me. I'd be interested to learn more why you think IEMs don't make sense for bass. [/quote] Just out interest do you guys use customs? I have been looking at 1964's they seem all,the rage at the moment.

[quote name='sunburstjazz1967' timestamp='1455723838' post='2981846'] We play mustang Sally in C, if the venue isn't happy about that they can get another band to play instead. [/quote] Blackpool beach?

This feels like a game of catfish and mouse

[quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1455715165' post='2981731'] No, I've baited for compliments. [/quote] What you do in privacy should be kept private😁

Looks like nice gear and is certainly worth an audition but I am in no hurry to move on my Puma 900.

[quote name='EBS_freak' timestamp='1455699478' post='2981484'] Wow. The quality of these puns has sunk real pedalo. [/quote] Are you fishing for complements?

Oops bit thick you know😁

Are you shaw?

Nordstrand pre is amazing, sounds really natural. I also like the Glockenklang 2 band, maybe sounds a little more modern compared to the Nordstrand

The dolphin goes real deep, I do find my big rig a real pain to ferry around.

My big rig preference for underwater gigs is the Mesa Fathom

Seal is a class act

Keep talking I'm all in ears

I'm having a whale of a time here, this has to be the best thread derail ever.

I have to duck in and out

I am struggling to fathom this thread

It's amazing what you can catch on the net

This thread is sinking fast

The tide might bring him back in
