In the meantime - how are you managing over there? The CTV news is full of distressing video of great damage. Keep safe.

I own a lot of Carvin equipment from basses to power amps and other rack equipment. When the company was operating they made very reliable gear.

Show us your rig of choice for the weekend ** Basschat edition**
BassmanPaul replied to bassace97's topic in Amps and Cabs
Try walking out into the room and listening. A vertical 4x10 is how I stack my amplifier too. -
That's what Beano is for.

I have to admit that I like it here. It seems more relaxed. The references to older gear brings back memories of when I started playing in 1962. That said, I do miss my friends on my side of the Atlantic such as your good self.

100W Stoneham valve amp - small footprint, lighter weight
BassmanPaul replied to Merton's topic in Amps and Cabs
A 100w prototype could easily be built on the chassis of the bigger amp. It'll have all the holes needed precut. For that matter you could just pull two of the output tubes. -
Talkbass haven't kicked you out too have they?
-
Thank you. I miss the Guys and Gals on Talkbass Does this mean you are Charlie?
-
Stack those cabinets on their ends for a vertical 4x10 and they'll work better out in the room.

On Talkbass there is a gentleman who I was fond of called Passingwind. I got kicked off the site for trying to warn people in the US what Trump was trying to do.

The problem is that my wife can barely walk and a flight to Manchester is more that she is able to do. Damn Covid and the surgeries that got cancelled because of it!
-
Gawd! I'd love to be there to share both memories and ideas. I think it would be a pile of fun! I've not heard of the like here in the Toronto area.
-
I hope the amp brings you pleasure.
-
Make certain sure that the amp will actually work on 240V 50Hz before you plug it in. A lot of amps aimed at the US market are not. If the amp will work on on 240V it will say so near the IEC socket. There may also be a switch that will need to be changed to allow for UK mains.
-
Just wanted to say that I enjoyed your bass playing and I thought your drummer was excellent!!
-
Anything Ashdown is good. Whether it's good for your needs only you can decide.
-
Not a matter of caring more, I think, a matter of just how many folks have tried both. Aguilar are more of a premium brand and their speaker cabinets are well regarded. Hartke are more run of the mill though they do get a lot of positive postings.
-
I know all that! LOL I've owned a couple of 50W Bassman amps in the last sixty odd years I've been playing. It's never been one of my favourite amps.
-
That seems a lot like carrying Coals to Newcastle. Use the amp as it was meant to be used. If you want to sound like you're using a Bassman then buy one.
-
I'd not thanks you for it - I'm not into vintage equipment that much. That said, if it brings you pleasure then I'm happy for you.

Ah but Stevie, Q Components IS near ME! LOL

Maybe here? https://qcomponents.ca/products/b-c-14ndl76-8-ohm-14-500w-neodymium-3-0-voice-coil-woofer?variant=39705481314453¤cy=CAD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic Failing that if the company still exists contact their customer service department.

Trouble with your suggestion Owen is that it adds another cable and I was wireless at the time .

Back in the late Seventies I built a monitor around a 12" JBL so I could hear myself in the harmonies we were doing. A little later I built a 10" version and that worked so well I built another. Finally I bought a IEM system and that worked best of all without the cost a a separate power amp to drive the monitors
