I just tried to load its thiele-small parameters into WinISD from https://loudspeakerdatabase.com/Faital/6FE200_8Ω and got 'floating point division by zero'

And never better than on Live at Leeds - also the OX's most incendiary playing (and tone). Young Man Blues; it's like they and Moon were being restrained by Security during the vocal parts at the start, to be released kicking and screaming for the chorus/riff

I got ebay's so-called AI to describe a bogroll I listed. It didn't differ much from the above, though it did include "...the renowned brand Sawyer-Cumming..." Biggest clues that it's AI are the phrases "With this..." and "you can be assured..."

Works well with my Aria swb.

Pretty much as I see it. But still, it seems to be accepted wisdom that alnico is The Good Stuff and ceramic is for losers. It's even more set in stone than Maple Necks Make A Brighter Tone Than Rosewood.

Just seen the AI generated synopsis on Google, and I fear for the future of humanity. It's just a distillation of hearsay and marketing.

I do suspect that there's a bit of audiophoolery/confirmation bias involved...

What's the difference, and why? A magnetic field is a magnetic field...is it just that alnico is less powerful so damps the strings less?

I've never heard a system involving piezos that hasn't had that dreaded tizz and boom quality, redolent of village hall discos, karaoke and cheap lager. Apparently it can be done though, I think BFM knows the secret...

Can I just interrupt our scheduled etc,etc to recommend Switch Electronics. They have a lot of the stock that we usually go to Tayda for, (eddystone cases, pots, connectors, semis, passives, non-sh1tty stripboard, loads of goodies, all with data sheets) almost as cheap and next-day delivery for 3 quid, free over 30 quid. Great customer service too, a parcel got misdelivered and there was a replacement in the post the same day. Www.switchelectronics.co.uk

The excursion would have been huge below 65Hz with more than a few watts, easy to kill a driver that way. (I've learned from my mistakes and can repeat them perfectly)

Forget Round Ireland With a Fridge, seems I can do Free Lodgings Round Britain With a Bass Cab. It's the Experience that airbnb has yet to monetise

Put me up for a weekend and I'll build one and deliver it 😉

It'll be the best thing since the NME got Mark E Smith, Nick Cave and Shane McGowan together in a bar with a bottomless tab

A list of non-twâts, notoriously prone to twâttish behavior, with whom I'd gladly have shared a stage/studio: Ian Dury Mark E Smith Miles Davis Keith Moon Morrissey...oh hang on, I said non-twâts...

Sometimes my exaggeration for comic effect misses the mark. Happens a million times every day.

Well, I've let the drummer hear the singer's material and he likes it. So...onward! To be clear, neither drummer nor singer is a twât - both are strong personalities. One's fire, one's ice; it's the bass player's job to be luke warm water.

I'm the opposite. Used to bother me but I'm getting a lot better at shrugging.

My thoughts exactly, all of you,thanks.

Might be a good name for my new band, but that only occurred to me once I'd typed it. I'm playing in a new band, looking for a singer. I know someone I'd like to introduce to the drummer and guitarist; I've worked with him before and really enjoyed his performances and his company. However, both he and the drummer are very...wilful might be the word. As in horses that resist being "broken" or toddlers that throw their toys at their siblings. They are almost certain to fight. Possibly to the death. My question for you, dear agony aunts is: should I risk it? Apart from the risk of bloodshed and involvement of law enforcement agencies, what's the worst that could happen? I've been in bands where the female singer is in a relationship with other band member(s). Surely if I can deal with that I can deal with the occasional trip to A&E? I wonder what Roger Daltrey or Steve Hanley would advise.

If you can get a schematic, I'd be happy to do a new board. Might even be able to do it from photos of each side of the board; pm me.

Sounds comfy 😉

A year later... ...cabs still look great. Thanks for the various top tips.

Update on my JJB-300. Loving it even more than when it was new.
