whynot Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Good choice of amp the LM Tube. I have the same. Never occurred to me I would go back to using Markbass after the RH450, but when you dial in a little tube on the LM it's a very different beast and gives a thickness in tone that I loved about the 450, but with the MB eq much more flexible.

franzbassist Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 (edited) Here's my new rig, a Phil Jones M-300 amp and 6B cab. I'm going to post a full review in the relevant section, but my main impressions are: [list] [*]With everything set flat, very honest reproduction of the inherent sound of the bass [*]Fantastic eq, especially the 630Hz slider as it really emphasises finger style [*]Smooth limiter [*]Bass fills the room in a natural way and is not directional like a lot of rigs do. This makes the amp appear underpowered when you're in front of it, but walk around the room and the volume appears the same [*]Master volume is a linear pot and can be used the whole way around (i.e. noon is 50%), which is useful to show how much juice you have left [*]Absolutely top notch build quality [/list] Cheers Gareth Edited August 15, 2010 by walbassist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 In October last year, I replaced my beautiful sounding but hugely heavy SWR SM-900 head with Etienne's G-B Shuttle 6.0. Bought a rackmount kit from BassDirect Mark and [i]voila[/i] [attachment=56830:rig2.jpg] It soon became apparent that the Focusrite compressor was now fairly superfluous -- as fabulous a unit as it is, I found it couldn't really make any improvement to the basic sound of the Shuttle and so there was really no need to keep it. So in January the Focusrite went, to be replaced by a FunkLogic DD-301 Digilog Dynamicator... the best DFA processor money can buy. [attachment=56831:rig1.jpg] The contents of the rack now weigh substantially less than the rack itself Some might say it defeats the object of having a lightweight amp, but I disagree... it's sooooo handy having it all permanently connected up in the one rack, as it means all I need to do is stack it all up, plug in the speakers and the 240v, and off I go. It actually takes longer to get the bass de-cased and strapped up than it does to set up the rig AKG SR100 wireless G-B Shuttle 6.0 2 x Nemesis NSP115 1x15" cabs Total rig weight is around 80lbs. Or in other words, 20lbs less than one of my old Peavey 4x10s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niceguyhomer Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Nice compact rig Rich - are they the same Eden cabs you've had for a while? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Yup, them's the ones... originally had a [url="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v169/jazza42uk/DSC00625.jpg"]2x10 plus 1x15 setup[/url], but after reading all the stuff about having similar sized speakers I took the plunge and did a staight swap of my 210 for the second 115 (with one of our number... really sorry, but I can't remember who. If you're reading this, are you still happy with the 210?). And to my ears, it is loads better as a rig. A much more rounded, warmer sound, but the horns still give all the snap I need when I want it. And they're soooo light too. Love 'em.

(upper and lower 410.) basicaly i think that both those speakon connections on the speaker will let me use upper and lower 4ohms 800watts rms. is that right. i plugged in like this. head>810>410>115 that was correct yeah?

The siggery & yamaha are really different sounding basses, and when i eventually get a P bass, the ability to have 3 sounds right there fully set up with even volumes is going to invaluable when switching basses at a gig. In terms of the cab, i've always loved the epifani sound. I really wanted the 310 but this was at a good price. The Berg sounded phenomenal but i still don't think i fully get on with 12's. They've always seemed to lack something for me. If money wasn't an object i'd probably be looking at one of the berg 410's but there alot of money, and with starting uni next month i don't have much to spare!!

Who's Who Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Hi I'm new to the forum but wanted to flash my new rig. Ashdown Klystron 500 head Neo 410H Cab Neo 115H Cab I picked this up for an absolute steal for my local guitar shop. Bought a MAG Rig, and after the first jam it just wasn't loud enough. Took it back the next day with the intention of trading it in for an ABM Evo III head, with ABM 2x10 and 1x15 Cab's. The guy in the store let me take this rig away for the same price as the ABM Rig. Flashing her off with my Blueburst 4003, a match made in heaven. [attachment=57089:Ashdown_Rig.jpg] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
