  2. What's that 1u top of the rack, with the protruberances?
  3. Mine are from Ultimateear.com. The attenuation is much, much better than headphones. They don't fall out and are surprisingly comfortable. I can't tolerate ordinary earbuds. These are a completely different animal. I'm just off stage and taken them out. It's a whole different world in there.
  4. Love it. Like a very English Big Black.
  5. Gain/max level: Here's a pedal with 40dB gain . (amplifies the signal voltage x100)and a 9V battery. So put 10mV in, get 1V out. Happy days. But put 100mV in you won't get 10V out - the 9V battery is inadequate. Simillarly, increase the gain to 60dB and put 10mV in - still can't gey 10V out. Now if that pedal has an output impedance of 10k (the equivalent of a 10k resistor in series) and the following power amp an input impedance of 10k, those two resistors form a potential divider which halves the signal, taking us even further from sonic satisfaction.
  6. If Carl doesn't want it, I could give it a loving family home
  7. Ps this thread is a lot funnier* if you read "bf" as "boyfriend", as most www users would. *individual GSOHs may vary. Termsandconditionsapply
  8. I have a 3015lf in a 70 litre cab incorporating a 400w class d amp and lpf. It's an easy one person lift (even for me, clapped out old fart with an interesting collection of spinal issues) If you DIY you can choose dimensions so that it sits under the bf, bringing it nearer your ears. I could help with cab design and do any electronics you need. See what Phil and Bill have to say about the idea.
  9. Sorry, missed this bit. If you do go down the road of getting a second bf, set them both to 16ohm. Your amp will be able to deliver more than half the power into 8 than it can into 4, so the difference will be less than 3dB. And you'll be able to turn it up further before the speakers complain. I think you mentioned earlier that you don't use the full capacity of the amp anyway?
  10. I see the dilemma. You say you like a lot of low end. Maybe get a powered sub to take some of the work from the cab that you otherwise like the sound of? A 3015LF in a simple 70 litre ported box can move a lot of trouser, and power amps are cheap.
  11. Yes I think what Mr RedX said. The difference will be predictable, and the prediction I'd like to make is: you will be happy. "twice the rating of the amp" advice isn't as good as "if it sounds bad to you, change something", as the quoted speaker power rating is usually thermal. If you like a lot of lows, the excursion limit is generally reached long before thermal.
  12. Exactly what I'm finding. Lately I've LPFd the subs about 150Hz (it varies) and HPFd the 100w tranny amp and 10" speaker about 70Hz.
  13. What sort of music do you play? Both kinds, or something unnatural like soul, rock or reggae 😁 What amp? What's your band(s)like? Do you use PA support? Just nosy really, me. The last dozen or more gigs I've done have been on silent stages. Got a gig next week with drums, guitar and shouty man and kind of look forward to wishing my rig was louder.
