The guy on that second track sounds like a right creep!

For BB1600 fans check out Nalle Påhlsson on the latest Low Down society podcast with a lot of audio clips of the man doing his BB/pick style thing! https://thelowdownsociety.podbean.com

I did have a look but wasn’t sure if they did 4 ohms as special orders or if the older generations had the option of 4 or 8ohm.

I’m still none the wiser if BF offer both 4 and 8 ohm alternatives on all their cabs. Some manufacturers do. It’s not an unreasonable question. I just took it for granted your 112’s were 4ohm or at least one of them was as you’ve talked a lot about your ‘900w at 4ohm’ - it’s no biggie just could be misleading for folk who were reading along. Actually it’s one of the reasons I was unsure if BF offered 4ohm versions of their 112 cabs as your statement implied (to me at least) you were getting 900w from the BB2/AO900 pairing. Most folk would discuss their gear in real terms - output etc. An example one of my amps is capable of 1200w but I don’t run it at 2ohm - I generally talk about it as an 800w at 4ohm head as that’s how I use it day to day. But you’re never taking two cabs to a gig 😀

I have no experience of BF cabs so wouldny know. I do know my Tecamp is sold in an 8ohm or 4ohm version- I don't know if BF do this too...

He might be meaning bypassing the amps eq section entirely as there will be ‘built in’ colouration even at flat’ -!whether it’s enough to notice on some amps more than others is a while other topic on what is ‘flat’ etc which have been done to death especially on TB. Ive used some tube pre amps years ago where the eq could be bypassed entirely and you we just getting bass>tubes>output. One unit in particular when used this way was unquestionably the best sound I’ve had on a bass.

I wonder if it’s to do with how the mid range is voiced on the dug and if it just makes it more mix friendly?

Long time legend. Chops and feel!

Honestly they’re more different looking than similar from the dials and sliders. You should give those settings a spin and hear what the similarities are. Be good to hear how they A/B!

Ah it’s the fx return not power amp in he was using. That’s where I got my wires crossed. Your amp doesn’t have a power amp in.

Which would be redundant if using the ‘power amp in’ option in the back. Just saying!

I might have been reading too literally but if using the ‘power amp in’ section’ you only get the power amp none of the other amp features would be available as you’d only be using the power section. Obviously you might be saying just plug into the front of the amp. There’s a power amp in the TS for £400 ish which does 3kwatt at 4ohm. Plenty of headroom with that and it’s only 8kg!

Dug amp has some great features and sounds big!

Going for a Jesus Lizard thing? Now that’s a bass tone!

Top notch! Let's hope it's retained the funk!

I was just repeating myself Look forward to hearing your experience with it and making captures of your bass head @bjelkeman

There is that 😀

Hölger is dead on!

Superb!

I had been using a Basswitch preamp for many years (8+) so I had my additional tonal needs covered with that for a long time. Clean clear and dual semi para mid eq was a great help for additional tone tweaking but I’ve used other preamps too.

I’m not in the market as I continue to use my HXStomp for my additional eq needs. If I did go down the active eq path I’d be looking at a Uni pre (set and forget with the option to tweak the internal parameters should I fancy an afternoon tweaking) or a tone capsule based on what I like eq wise in relation to the sensible Bass Mid Mid eq points
