escholl Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 [quote name='Spoombung' post='425153' date='Mar 4 2009, 03:11 PM'] I can't believe I've still got exactly the same gear as I had in 1985. It was old then! Still, [i]I thoroughly[/i] endorse H&H products - the finest bass amps ever made. Before that I had a Selmer Treble 'n'Bass valve amp which had more warmth and depth but didn't suit the Wal so much. Most modern amps sound rubbish to my ears. You've probably noticed my 100 watt amp head has seen better days - it's missing knobs and buttons and even survived a fire in a studio. I've lost the 4 x12 cab from the band days (can't remember what I did with it) so I've used the 15" combo for the gigs ever since. It's a little erratic to say the least, surging up and down in volume of its own accord. I've tried to have it fixed but many engineers have tried and failed. It's the pre amp part of the H&H I really like. It's a perfect marriage for the Wal (which tends to be very dynamic and I think really needs a compressor. The H&H compressor does the job. The H&H Studio 60 (to give it its full title) is a big fruity amp that weighs a ton. I wrote [i]"this speaker talks bullshit"[/i] on it when I was drunk and I'm still looking for the right cleaning product to remove the offensive lettering. I tried for years to find an engineer willing to extract the pre amp from the main amp head ... to no avail. It would have been really handy to take it in a little box with me when I was doing loads of foreign gigs in the 90's. If anybody knows someone who can do this let me know. In the meantime I should try and find a small 12" cab to go with the amp head...so if anybody has one for sale let me know.[/quote] Always good to meet a like-minded individual.

As well as the case, UL902 and tuner, that figure includes a 1U 13A power strip along the back and the speaker cables inside Quote

With a healthy output into those cabs I can't see that lacking in any department. I realise you've not had the rig long but would you gig one cab for small venues or will it always be the pair? Quote

I just always fancied two of them and because of they are 5.3-ohms this is the only practical way to do it. 6string bassist wanted to get rid of a UL310 and the UL902 and so we struck a deal which included my UL502. For the local jams I'll use the Ashdown LG1000 and the two 1x12s as the stage is very, very small. Quote

joegarcia Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Oh my! An SA200, doubt there are many of those over here. Would love to hear that! Quote
Toasted Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I've used a SA200 at the Sadowsky shop and it sounded very, very clear and articulate. I'd definitely like to own one. One of the only amps I'd swap my DB750 for - I think :ninja: Joe. Quote

And yes, You can also use it as a high end full tube hifi tone. This tube amp is the best in this range IMHO ... don't speak to me about SVT or other tube amps... they are not so versatile. (As far as I Know, it seems there were about 120 SA200 produced before they stopped the production.) Edited March 9, 2009 by flychris Quote
