    The valve with the white top is faulty. There is an air leak. From the web...... White getter on a bad tube VS a healthy tube getter The second thing to look for is the condition of the getter. This is the greyish coating usually found at the top of a tube, but can be on the sides, or both top and sides, depending upon the tube type. Any color from grey/silver, to black is healthy. When a vacuum tube develops an air leak (a small crack or bad seal by a pin for example) this getter color will change to pure white. Hope this helps.

    I've just moved from KZ ZS10 pro to.... https://ultimateear.com/product/soundear-pro-music/ They are more natural with better projection in the all important mid frequencies. I found the ZS10 pro to have to much bass and treble for my taste.

    Very true. We all forget that to go twice as loud as 100 genuine watts you need 1000w. So the difference between 300 and 500 watts is very small and might not be even heard.

    I use a Warwick Gnome head, the 650w version. With the tone controls at noon it has a very scooped and clean sound . A flat frequency can be obtained with a few tweaks to the tone knobs. For a neutral and clean sound with tone controls at noon I would go for the 800w Phil Jones , the blue one.

    The difference in loudness between 200w and 300w is minimal. Go for a 500w plus head.

    Oh, that's crap. I'm trying to find one at a good price. Will keep looking.

    It's my favourite amp for a clean transparent sound. Thank you for your great review.

    How? What was it causing the fault.
  16. spyder
    Now this looks very interesting. I have been holding back because I really don't like the screens on most of these units.

    Do you have the box?
  18. spyder
    It is. Please PM me. Many thanks. Marc

    The bass is about 10 years old and as far that I'm aware the pickups are the older square style. They are exactly the same as the newer curved pickups, just square. I've played a few other Dingwall basses and the Canadian made ones are a whole different league. The build quality and playability are nothing like the lesser series models. I prefer the passive electronics and have never felt that I needed an active solution. If you want to add an active preamp it would be very easy to achieve or just use a preamp pedal. Hope this answers your questions. Please let me know if you want anymore answered. Marc

    The low B is incredible through my Barefaced cab. Sounds like an earthquake 🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨 🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨

    It is most definitely surviving. 🤠 It's a fantastic bass, unfortunately I've bought to much stuff lately so something has to go.

    More pictures from previous owners.. Colour shift is due to lighting and camera settings. Enjoy....

    Boxed as new Deluxe version with.... Wooden box Multi coloured LED Bandana The LAB is an optical compressor. It uses custom optocouplers to achieve up to 30dB of musical-sounding compression. We loved how in the recording studio even with tons of compression the old optical compressors such as the LA-2A, the LA-3, the LA-4 sounded smooth and natural. The essence of the LAB's sound comes from the fast attack and slow release times of the custom optocoupler. The optocoupler's behaviour is quite complex, and program-dependent. It can't be modelled with simple resistor-capacitor networks. We wanted the pure response of the optocoupler to define the LAB's dynamics, and not supplement that with RC filtering. To that end, we tried out just about every off-the-shelf optocoupler on the market, but ended up designing and manufacturing our own custom units. There's an interplay between dynamics, noise floor, distortion, and available compression on the one hand, and the opto's electrical parameters on the other. Since nothing commercially available fit the bill, we built our own. With just two controls – compression and gain make-up – the LAB is fast and simple to use. It sounds great on bass and electric guitar, and the noise floor is impressive – quiet enough for studio use. It really shines on acoustic guitar, vocals and drums. LAB Optical Compressor Specifications Power Requirements +9VDC @40mA Input Impedance 1MΩ Output Impedance 100Ω Frequency Response 20Hz–20KHz ±0.1dB Maximum Input Level +7.5dBu Maximum Output Level +10.0dBu Compression/Gain-makeup 30dB Noise Figure (Rs=10K) 3dB £230 UK including postage
