Hi I want to add a small pre amp / eq pedal to my board, for my NXT EUB i want to be able to adjust the tone of the EUB without changing my amp as I switch between bass and eub when we play live also need some boost to bring the level up so it is similar to my MM sterling was thinking a Boss BE7 or sans amp bass driver might do the job? Small footprint ideally as I only have a small board Any other suggestions would be appreciated cheers Tony

Thanks guys

Hi Does a genz Benz streamliner need a load in the output to be used? So want to use with aux input and phones I'm sure it does but wanted to check Thx Tony

Well I ended up with a pair of top of the range EV's with 15" drivers Only used them on their own, not hooked them up to the Mackie subs, but they work great on their own, so I suspect it will be a Big sound once paired with the subs Just getting my head round the behringer AR18, which is excellent fortunately our guitarist did his degree in music production, this is proving useful, he knows his stuff! Tony

saw one of these in my local PMT, sat in a glass case looking very fine I'm on a streamliner right now, I like it, but sometimes I miss the top end zing of a more modern sounding amp, but my jazz does sound good with it Was thinking the genzler megaton would be a good move, but aint got round to having a listen yet, so for any of you guys who have heard the streamliner and played this, whats your opinion Tony

Looks like I'm gonna now go for rcf 735, the bigger voice coil has a lot of appeal 745 would be nice but will kill the budget T

Just off for a look at PMT as I've got man flu, so off work! A few options have come up QSC K12, chasing a pair of those, also a local seller has a complete HK audio power pack, but with the L5 115 tops, also a pair of L5 115 tops are up for grabs close to me. And theres also a pair of RCF 722A. These are good used options, reasonably close to me And just working out an arrangement of Lady Day and John Coltrane, tune! Tony

Thanks for the advice, although I've played in bands for many years, this is the first time I'm leading a project, so having to look at more aspects than I normally would Cheers Tony

Hi I need some PA advice After many years of playing in the same band, I parted company with them last year and have embarked on my own little project, utilising a some of the musicians who also left the band I was in (there must have been a common denominator, and it wasn’t me ) So, I’m out on my own and needing some PA advice The band is playing mainly funk and soul (Stax etc) and some ska Guitar, bass, drums, sax, vocals with the option to add a trumpet of the gig calls for it Venues range from small bars to large hotel function rooms I will be using a Behringher X air XR18 I have a couple of Mackie subs which I think will provide a good start point, they are Mackie SWA1501 So I need tops for these, Mackie SRM 450 look like a good and well used option, but it doesn’t take much to go bigger with the 550 or even 650 range Last band I was in used the Alto 2x12 on the Alto subs, the subs weren’t much use, but the tops seem to function fine for the price, they also look like they make decent monitors I’ve been looking at active speakers with 1000w class D amps I see brands like EV, RCF, HK, but have no experience of any of the other brands out there So what other options are there, any opinions and advice would be greatly appreciated Cheers Tony

We went on Wednesday, sounded great from where we were I had the good fortune to be a guest of Reni's sister, so we were in a box with a free bar, outside seats etc Tony

Still waiting for more opinions on this I've been gigging a streamliner, whilst I like it, I do miss the top end zing I've had from previous amps, it is a great sound, nice n warm Tony
