I've just bought two AE112's... & am amazed at how much sound comes out of such small & lightweight boxes! up to now I've been a 2x10 + 1x15 kind of guy... but the bergs deliver as much punch as I could wish for & a phatt warm bottom! with such clarity.... very impressed indeed! These seem very 'articulate' cabs... they reproduce exactly what you put through 'em & I have had to fiddle about quite a bit to get what I want to hear from my Peavey T-max head..... (soon to be replaced with a Genz Benz neo-pak 3.5) portability had become an issue for me & Genz Benz + Bergantino neo's seems the ideal solution... I guess with any drastic change in sound.... I will be tweaking about for a while before settling in with it....

wow!.... who would Adam & Eve it!? .....they be some pretty big speakers in there! & [i]interesting[/i] graphic setting! Top geezer!

another plus for Meshell Ndegeocello ..... she da man (!?! )

well tried the BA300 1x15 out yesterday.... didn't seem like 300watts to me... quite a nice tone to it... the sound 'style' switch suited me best in position 1 or 2, the rest were too lightweight & middley .... maybe I thump a bit hard at times but a limiter was cutting in & I didn't like that..... not gunna hold me breath about that one!... think I will look for separates, gone off the combo idea... may need a trip to Exeter or Poole to try the Mark Bass.....

hmmmm.... thanx for that, I'll look into the MarkBass stuff... SoundControl have the Ampeg stuff in, so when I get a chance I'll check that out too...

The older I get the more interested I become in lighter weight, smaller options .... ( my 14 stairs to my front door at the end of the night are a bit of a pain!) ....but don't want to sacrifice sound quality etc.. I've not had a combo for many years & generally prefer separates... These lil' babies look interesting!... I've not tried 'em yet but wondered if anyone else has, or even owns one? [url="http://www.ampeg.com/products/bassamp/ba300/210.html"]Ampeg BA300210[/url]

Great range of noises from clean and clanky to out and out death metal and the tone controls allow you to dial in all the low end you want. In fact the EQ is so good that I've been using mine with the "Clean" setting as a "smiley face" EQ for slapping. Cheers, Alun[/quote] ... +1, currently doing the same! my fave of all time though, was a 'coloursound supa tonebender' that a mate of mine had tweeked to fatten the bottom end... somewhere down the line I gave it away!

aahh, that'll be a 'zandingo' mate!

I really like the way she plays..... she's gotta be one of my favorite bass players soulful, tasteful & in the pocket.... beautiful sense of groove..... 'I'm digging you' 'if that's your Boyfriend' 'Thankful' 'Bitter' 'Stay' (....those dead notes! ) 'luqman' (off 'dance of the infidels') 'the sloganeer' 'virgo' all great bass parts for very different reasons..... some very minimal but so well placed.... (less is more!) 'make me wanna holler'..... .... anyone who gets 'my mother used to whore herself... & my father used to reap the benefits of her labours' in as a 1st line of a song, deserves to be listened to!........... A real unique player, indeed....
