  1. Thanks for the response guys!
    I really love the gk sound but seem to have no luck with their stuff., I have an old 2000rb that is one channel, (the other is toast)I bought it like that as a back up to my 2001.
    I have the 4x12 which "grumbles" at low volume, it's fine when loud tho,
    I also have an mb800 which is noisey
    And the biggy.... 2001rb which is what I am really looking at getting sorted.
    This thing blew, got repaired, and then blew again after being used twice. It has been through 3 different very highly regarded amp techs since, and they all say it's a pretty complicated/pain to work on. The last tech has spoken to gallien directly to source parts which totalled something like £800. Polar audio quoted me £15 per 15 minutes inspection time just to isolate the fault, then the price of the parts and a higher rate repair and then hefty return shipping, which was also cost prohibitive when you can pick a 2001 up for £500
    No one seems to be able to repair this at a rate worth saving the amp and it's a damn tragedy to throw a 2001 in a skip.
    Looking for ideas:)

  2. Had the pleasure of taking "sarah", a 78 jazz off chris the other day. What a perfect gent, even drove it to me to have a noodle!
    Excellent comms and a perfect transaction!
    Cheers mate, sarah will be played and loved!

  3. I have read this thread with great interest. Some good points, and some very jaded views too.
    The best way to reinforce bass properly is DI pre AND post, with a mic also.
    One of the main reasons supports sound less polished, is due to them all being crammed onto the remaining 2 feet on the front lip of the stage, as they have had to set up in front of the headliners. All that lovely separation u got for the headliners ha gone as all the sounds bleed into the other mics.. Particularly drums into vocal mics as they are in close proximity.
