    [quote name='thepurpleblob' post='543565' date='Jul 17 2009, 08:31 PM']Those would be actives... I used them too and they are quite good for the money. I assume he's looking for passives though - although I think those Wharfedales do come that way.[/quote] ah ok passive version then! lol [url="http://www.andertons.co.uk/WharfedaleEVPS15MPassiveMonitorinstock/pid12098/cid623/WharfedaleEVPS15MPassiveMonitorinstock.asp?utm_source=googlebase&utm_medium=pricecomp&utm_campaign=GoogleShopping"]http://www.andertons.co.uk/WharfedaleEVPS1...=GoogleShopping[/url] Cheers, Dood

    Oh...ermm! I cant remember the model number, but Wharfedale do active wedges with 15" cones. They have an EQ on them as well and differnt types of inputs, such as line and Mic XLR. I plugged a bass directly into one a while back and I have to say the sounds was pretty damn good. The top end I liked as it was polite and didnt get irritating or fatiguing when playing a CD up loud. I would say, for the price they would be on my list if I needed wedges.

    [quote name='davidmpires' post='543545' date='Jul 17 2009, 08:17 PM']You described it just right clean tone, detailed and punchy. Its's a great combination of uncoloured gear it's all about the bass and the fingers or pick for that matter[/quote] I much prefer to use an uncoloured backline, (or at least - as uncoloured as possible - we're stil governed by the laws of physics lol) then use my other gear (preamp/sims etc) to do all the work. The set up thus sounds pretty great to me!

    I tried a B2 out many years ago when I still owned an SVT2 and Hartke cabs. I remember it sounding great then.. I see you have an F1 too. How do they pair? I suspect it's a great clean tone, detailed and punchy?

    Dood replied to kjm's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale

    Glad the price discussion has been brought to a calm close. As per our market place guidelines we urge people to have any pricing disagreements offline via PM. Thanks for sorting this one with minimal fuss.

    Off the back of posts like this, I'm going to build a line driver pedal that will allow the use of normal pedals like the M80 to be used as a preamp. (to boost & control the output up to the right levels to drive a power amp correctly) I've got all the bits, just a matter of getting round to it.. I've even come up with a cool valve version* * I expect a few to come up on the market now lol lol

    [quote name='Geek99' post='540197' date='Jul 14 2009, 11:56 AM']Last time it was at a pub in nottingham. Worth going to, budgetbassist organised it as I recall. We should do it again really.[/quote] The first 'Bass Bash' get togethers took place in Northampton and were twice yearly. Unfortunately we haven't had one this year ( or the second one last year) which is a shame as they are a fantastic get together. More regional bashes have been put together as well and they are always a succcess. I'm sure this is down to the flippin great crowd we have here on BassChat. I am really looking forward to another one and it really is the only place to see, hear and try out gear you can only dream of seeing in your local music shop. There should be some bass bash pictures on BassChat somewhere! (Please.. none of me thanks...)

    [quote name='Sibob' post='540648' date='Jul 14 2009, 08:06 PM']Newtone, who makes my strings, can cater a set of strings for any tuning you want, any tension/gauge combination. Oh and they're around the same price as a set of Elites/Rotos.....just take 3 weeks to get to you lol Good luck Si[/quote] And they are flippin nice strings too! Even the standard diamond set sound brilliant.

    [quote name='hookys6stringbass' post='539374' date='Jul 13 2009, 02:34 PM']I found pics of my old Alembic pre amp , really regret selling it ! Anyway I was wondering if there is anyone in basschat land that could build me a copy..... with maybe an effects loop for my noisey old chorus pedal cheers[/quote] If you have no luck there, then I would recommend keeping an eye out for a Trace Elliot V-Type preamp. I would go as far as saying it's an improvement on said design. Infact, why-o-why did I sell my V-Type in the end???!!! Hmmm!!!

    You can take a DI feed from the SEND connection to a DI box. This will give you a POST EQ signal that is affected by all the tone, drive and gain controls but not the master volume. You'll have to check if the signal you get at the DI output is strong enough. Alternatively, you can plug your bass durectly into the DI then come out of the Parallel link into the amp. This will mean only your bass sound and not the amp will go to the desk. - One final trick, you can also use the tuner output to drive a DI box. Again, this is the same as plugging directly into the DI box and the amp will not effect the tone. IF you use effects in your effects loop, add the DI box as the last item in the chain so that the desk will pick up your effect sounds too.. for example... BASS>Amp IN Send out> Compressor-Chorus-EQ-DI input then DI Parallel link output> Return in etc etc. The normal balanced DI XLR connector goes to the desk.

    [quote name='geoffbassist' post='538211' date='Jul 11 2009, 11:57 PM']wow you dont see many of these... i bet it sounds massive[/quote] Yeah, I'm impressed with it's output, tone and...well..it's light as a feather!! 37Kg is lighter than most 4x10 cabs! and yes, it sounds maHOOsive! [quote name='silverfoxnik' post='538212' date='Jul 12 2009, 12:06 AM']It looks massive![/quote] Fits in the back of my motor really easily! I think it makes up for that by being deeper. It's about 18" deep which I feel sure is what helps get the extended bottom out. [quote name='steve-soar' post='538219' date='Jul 12 2009, 12:14 AM']What's cooking?[/quote] I'm actually not sure yet! But when I find out, I'll let you know for sure! ;o) [quote name='mike257' post='538237' date='Jul 12 2009, 01:36 AM']What are you doing! I'd JUST decided I wanted a compact rig I could carry in one go, and you go and wave this under my nose. How damn rude [/quote] Sorry! lol!!! - I only meant to sell the GS112 first.. then I got to thinking.... [quote name='obbm' post='538259' date='Jul 12 2009, 07:47 AM']Oh dear. I hope it wasn't something I said! [/quote] Infact my friend, you did *help* - I went back and had a good think about what I want now, as opposed to what I needed back then! Hmmm! I feel this is going to be another fun DOOD journey!! ;o) [quote name='Stag' post='538313' date='Jul 12 2009, 10:10 AM']...is this sale possibly related to that email you sent me DJV? You can come and try mine out first if you want! [/quote] Steve, it wouldn't hurt to test the theory!! Book me in, the next time you take the beast somewhere so we can crank it up! lol - But yeah, is related to my other discussions with you! I think the price is firm and I can't see the need to drop it, unless someone makes me a very fast offer within reason. PM ME! ;o)

    Since we've got a bit of down time at the moment, writing and recording, I have an opportunity to rethink my back line - my tastes are changing and so is my tone. I'll get some pictures together soon, but in the meantime here's the spec' from the Epifani website. [url="http://www.epifani.com/products/concert610.php"]http://www.epifani.com/products/concert610.php[/url] [quote]UL-610 When you need to move air you have to have speakers -and the more the better! The UL-610 was a custom design made exclusively for bass legends Daryl Jones (Rolling Stones) and Christian McBride but we were so impressed with the results that the UL-610 has now become part of our standard production line. This monster is equipped with six 250 watt Epifani 10" drivers that handle an astonishing 1500 watts (RMS) of power. Utilizing two separate isolation chambers, the UL-610 delivers unsurpassed clarity and accuracy even at high decibel levels. •Speaker: 6 x 250w RMS Cast Aluminum Frame •100w RMS Tweeter •Freq Response: 40hz - 16khz •Power Rating: 1500w RMS (3750w Peak) •4 Ohms •Suggested Wattage: 400w - 2000w •Sensitivity: 104db SPL @ 1w 1m •Recessed Handles •Dimensions: 42" H x 23" W x 18.25" D •82 lbs.[/quote] I reckon it's actually 5.33 Ohms, being a 6x cab - but 4 Ohms is pretty close enough!! SOLD - It's only 37Kg - so courier COULD be an option, but I would suggest collection or meeting 'halfway' for fuel, within reason. It is practically brand new condition, save for the smallest of mark on the grill and scratches to the lower plastic corners, that obviously can be replaced if you really want to do that, for pennies! The Bass Gallery Price list for these little beauties here:- £1435 [url="http://www.thebassgallery.com/epifani.html"]http://www.thebassgallery.com/epifani.html[/url] - So grab yourself a bargain!

    [quote name='obbm' post='538183' date='Jul 11 2009, 10:22 PM']I suppose that could be mildly described as extravagant. best to just stay with the F1 and one 610, unless you really want to splash out of course.[/quote] Well, I might even think about changing the UL-610.. but the F1 stays!

    [quote name='Mr. Foxen' post='538159' date='Jul 11 2009, 08:59 PM']How well did the 6x12 like your really low strings?[/quote] The room I tested in wasn't really that great.. it managed to show off the punch of the 10's but the 12's lacked what I'd hoped for in depth of bottom end.. similarly, in a different room, I found the Aguilar GS412 to actually show off less bass than the GS212 cabs. I'd love to have another go with all of them in a different environment, but both rooms weren't too dissimal from some of the dismall venues I have had the misfortune of playing in, in the past!

    [quote name='obbm' post='538060' date='Jul 11 2009, 06:26 PM']That as may be but the result would be wicked [/quote] Wouldn't it just! - So I'd have to buy a 902 AND a 610? GULP!

    Hi All! Sorry for the late reply.. yes, I am a BIG fan of the Tech Sound System gear. I have been lucky enough to try most of the range, including the 6x12, 4x10, 4x12 etc. I chose two ND410's for my rig as I was running a stereo set up and wanted a big punchy sound and to make use of the 1KW RMS per channel available from my power amp. Had I have decided to go for a mono set up (for example what I am using now) then the 6x12 could have gone home with me that day instead. Over all though, on the day, the 2 4x10's had a bit more punch through than the 4x12. I mean, like , the kick drum 100Hz type thump which sounded great with my Shuker I had at the time. I must admit, I am now panging for something similar again.. but its probably just GAS... Though watch this space, as there is a company I wanna have a chat with lol...

    [quote name='obbm' post='537557' date='Jul 10 2009, 10:05 PM']The answer to that is very simple. Another UL-610, one for each output of the 902.[/quote] Dave, my friend... you are a bad man!!!! he he he he!!!!

    [quote name='lemmywinks' post='537648' date='Jul 11 2009, 12:24 AM']You know Dood ended up buying another cos he missed it so much? Cracking pedals these btw[/quote] m lol... indeed he did! ;o) It's just a great 'swiss army knife' to have in the box. Great DI and the EQ is well centred too. The only thing I think it lacks is a boost to line level switch for driving say, a power amp directly.
