Nah i like my 8x10, i was tempted by a 6 but then i found my Ampeg second hand and it just had to be done. its power handling is fine too, it just feels asif it could have a little bit more of something, then it would be perfect, Im not even sure what that something is. Can anyone recommend speakers to upgrade to? baring in mind it needs to stay a 4ohm cab and i like my tone vintage dirrrty and warm.

thats cool man, can you give me details?

I find Watford Valves to be the best. they test tubes in a ridiculous ammount of ways and you can garauntee fast freindly service.

OK it goes like this. I have been very happy with my Ampeg 8x10 for a good while now. However I used a Marshall one saturday night for the first time and I actually thought "f*** me this pisses over my ampeg". Anyone got any thoughts on this? or know of anything thats better again? Please let me know as i am having an identity crisis about this

Sansamp programmable bddi is the sh*t man. I can't tell you the ammount of times mine has saved my skin. I use an svt 8x10 rig now purely as stage reference. I honestly can't sing it's praises enough

Amen brother. Every time i see one i just wanna smash it. 6L6s dont belong in guitar amps

Any bass designed after 1980

Rick's, dont like them, cant see the appeal. Fenders, I absolutly hate these things. Ive never played a Fender that feels nice to play, they sound ok but just feel horrible. Ill agree with the point from the off, Ashdown. Ive never been able to get a usuable sound out of them! Dont hate me for voicing these! Dan[/quote] Backed as f***

The MESA/Boogie rectifier range. I know its guitar gear but f*** me do these things annoy me. I am the bass player, I will deal with subsonic frequencies thank you very much. You just try not to get lost in the mix next to the other guitarists 30 watt orange. Thank god he saw the light and bought a JCM

[quote name='cheddatom' post='592701' date='Sep 8 2009, 10:22 AM']Valves and "tried and tested gear" are over rated. Digital amp modelling can replicate some of the most intricate of tones, it's almost a miracle, and yet without even bothering to open their ears and listen, half the gear-buying public immediately shout "NOTHING WILL EVER SOUND LIKE MY FENDER THROUGH AN ALL VALVE AMP".[/quote] In the studio yes, but you find me a local venue engineer who has the gear to make a digital amp sound good against valve amps. I must say I am entirely of the opinion that nothing will ever sound like my Fenders thru my SVT. One mans tone is another mans nightmare.
