Hope this is the right place for this question... I've got a Yamaha P2500S PA power amp that needs to go into a rack. It's a 2U high amp - should I put it in a 3U case with a ventilation panel, or can I get away with a 2U case? Amp gets used for about 2 hours a week and never gets driven hard, usually at about half power with only a guitar and/or piano and vocals going through it. Bonus question: recommendations for an appropriate case and mounting kit welcome. Would like to bring the whole lot in well under £100 if possible but want something reasonably solid (Gator?).

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1492089660' post='3277861'] Hmmmmm ... you might be better off trying a length of wire with a jack plug at each end. Radical, I know, but it just might work. [/quote] - yeah, but then people trip over the cable when I'm walking around checking the PA levels, and they get a bit upset about that, plus it doesn't do the jack sockets on the amp and bass much good. Having said that, I have been thinking about running a very thin wire between the receiver and transmitter as a back up though...

Played last night, took a slightly more hefty PSU (rated at 1A over the Line 6 PSU's 0.5A) and didn't get any dropouts despite running the same pedals as when I did get the dropouts... Will be back in the original location Sunday so will see if I have the same troubles this time...

A bit more research on the subject suggests that this could be a power supply thing. I've recently started using pedals (an MXR compressor, a tuner and a Boss EQ) and have just been using the Line 6's psu with a daisy chain cable. May be worth trying an isolated, or more powerful supply perhaps?

Just come across the Xvive wireless system. Anyone like to comment on how they hold up after a few months' use? Are people even still using them?

Speakers stands for EV SX-80s - Recommendations?
anzoid replied to anzoid's topic in Accessories and Misc
Will check out Gorilla stands, thanks. These EVs came with the additional stand adapter (as well as all the cables I'll ever need and a padded bag for each speaker). I won't say how much I paid but I think I did very alright, and don't want anyone to get jealous -
Picked up a couple of EV SX-80s for a very decent price, and just need some speaker stands. They need to be fairly solid, but lightweight, easy to put up and robust enough to spend a week at a time in a school cupboard. Any recommendations? Budget is around £100 for the pair but would go higher if necessary.

I think I've had mine too long for anyone to be willing to look at and declare it A1 Oh, well, looks like I've got an excuse to try out a Smooth Hound

I've got a Line 6 G30 wireless setup that I use every week. Yesterday I was getting intermittent drop outs - up to a couple of seconds long, happened three or four times in under an hour. Batteries were fresh in and I was standing right next to the receiver. I mainly use the wireless for sound checking... so, I could switch back to a cable for actual playing, but I like the freedom of wireless to wander around anyway. The previous week I'd had a couple of very short glitches but had just put it down to bad batteries. No such excuse this time. Is my Line 6 on the way out, or could there be something else? Everybody else who was playing/singing was wired, though the guitard had a TC Helicon "Play Acoustic" rig that was putting out some strange 70s vibes...

Well, this is probably going to be up there for quickest turnarounds of an effect... Bought only last week from Paul_5, but realised it's not for me (definitely an "it's me, not you" thing... ). This is the discontinued Mk1 version, no longer available from Dave Hall. Works as expected - everything from clean boost to complete and utter grit and grind - all from the built-in tube. Details from the website: [url="http://www.davehallamps.co.uk/page29.html"]http://www.davehalla....uk/page29.html[/url] Everything is in good condition (velcro on the bottom - bits of fluff are free!!) and works as you would expect. No PSU but will include the inverter that Paul gave me as the power socket is centre positive. Runs happily from a standard 9V Boss type supply. Only looking to get back what I paid so price of £105 includes shipping in the UK.

OK, was withdrawn, but back up for sale as I've sorted some stuff out... P-bass scratchplate for US or MIM Fender. White pearl. Loom is one of KiOgon's finest, with a difference - the tone pot has a push/pull switch for series/parallel - somehwat like the (in)famous Fender S1 switch. Pots are CTS 250K audio log, taper. The push/pull switch is CTS' latest DPST switch/pot assembly. Wiring diagram and min-screwdriver included Also includes chrome knobs. Price includes shipping in the UK [attachment=242575:ebay_bass_stuff-1.jpg] [attachment=242576:ebay_bass_stuff-2.jpg] [attachment=242577:ebay_bass_stuff-3.jpg]

Have bought a DHA VT1 EQ from Paul - wasn't on my original list of pre-amps but it's a winner. Fast delivery, well packaged and excellent communications - buy with confidence Thanks Paul!

Fender Precision Bass in CAR with fretless neck (rosewood lined board). The body (scratchplate, pickup, bridge, wiring) is from a 2010-2011 MIM Fender. The neck is from a 1998-1999 MIM Fender. Tuners have been replaced at some point by a previous owner. Plays nicely, sounds good, neck has a fair few dings and is a little roadworn but does the job fine. Body is in very good condition - only mark I can find on it is on the back. WITHDRAWN Payment by bank transfer only. Couple of piccies: [attachment=242307:fender_p_bass-2.jpg][attachment=242308:fender_p_bass-3.jpg][attachment=242306:fender_p_bass-1.jpg]

Sorry to see this one go as it never even made it onto the bass for which it was intended as I've got to move some kit on P-bass scratchplate pearl white with one of KiOgon's finest looms (and chrome knobs). The loom has a CTS push/pull pot for series/parallel. Comes with wiring diagram and mini screwdriver. Payment by bank transfer perferred but will take PayPal if you cover the fees.

Fender Stealth String Retainer - ordered and imported from the US. Hadn't realised that it wouldn't really work on my Fender MIM P-bass... Replaces the washer on a standard US sized tuner that uses the threaded barrel/hex nut for holding the tuner in place (no idea what that part's proper name is...) Ideal for rattley A strings. Still in original packaging. £22 shipped. [attachment=242210:retainer-1.jpg] [attachment=242211:retainer-2.jpg]

Ah well, mailed the seller for either return/refund or enough of a partial refund that I can get the truss rod sorted. Would £100 for fitting a new truss rod be enough? Is this something I could do myself with the money? As it is the bass is pretty much a (large) paperweight so might as well experiment... Having looked at it, I'm supposing that gluing the split back up *will* change the neck's relief because you're putting that part of the neck back under tension, hence the need for a functioning trussrod (above and beyond the fact that a functioning truss rod is a fairly basic necessity...)
