Total Watts

  1. Hi, it’s just that properly insured postage is probably £30 or so. If you want to organise a courier I can pack it and drop it off with them.
  2. Indeed it is! Pm me if interested
  3. Price dropped to £100 for a local pickup / drop off.
  4. Great versatile combo with a lovely sounding preamp and well designed Eq. Aux in for practicing or for use with other instruments. 12 inch driver plus a good horn, ported design. 120 watts. Tilt back design is great for small spaces and monitoring (pointing at your ears not at your legs!). There are scuffs on the tolex reflecting its age but it is still good looking amp with lots of life left. Im just clearing stuff out as my kids are slowly taking over the house and there’s no space for this 😢. I can deliver locally , regionally for the cost of fuel. £100
  5. So expressing an opinion that is different from makes you think think I am probably either old and outdated or a niche obsessed nerd. Nice. I go into today (as everyday) with an open mind
  6. I’m glad you’re enjoying it. Each to their own.
  7. As much as I want to enjoy and respect music, most of these Glasto performances have been dire. To the point where it almost feels like a giant windup. Listening to the intro glowing BBC intro then being confronted by the performances is a curious test of sanity, and gullibility. Hope others are enjoying it more than me!
  8. I had a similar experience. I had got used to lightweight, class D neo- gear and then found myself using a Trace 4x10 combo in rehearsal. It belonged to the studio so never had to be moved, and it sounded out of this world. Night and day difference to what I had become accustomed to. Really was an ‘awesome’ sound. It’s like cinema audio… if you don’t have to worry about moving it, amplifying bass is very different !
  9. Watched an awesome live show last night with an unbelievably good, seriously loud funk rock band. The bassist had this rig. Best live bass sound I’ve ever heard. Good luck with the sale.
  10. Is it fair to say that in Bill’s scenario of a series-parallel 410 vs a parallel 210, the drivers in the 410 will each be further away from their excursion limits and so there may be more low end response at medium volume and above? Another factor may be that (if stood vertically) the 210 will probably disperse mids wider than the 410, so depending on stage positioning it may sound louder.
  11. Lovely set up. Which pedal board are you using there… feeing tempted by the neatness of this !
  12. Thanks all. It’s been an interesting read!
  13. Hi, I've been curious about this for a while so thought I'd ask the collective BC brain ... why are Hartke cabs thought of as having 'edge', 'zing', 'cut-through' ? Thoughts: - They are at least part aluminium. Can't be that, visually shiny metal doesn't produce audibly shiny sound?? This is surely visual bias / marketing talk, no? - they have a different shape to 'regular' drivers. Does central part of the cone act as some kind of whizzer / HF dispersion device? - maybe they just sound the same as any other speaker, but people hear with their eyes? Any thoughts? Cheers, Doug
