steve-bbb Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) nobody has any hartke gear on the list - would it be worth having a hydrive cab there to demo so fellow basschatters can experience the total lushness of hartke hydrive 4x10? ive only got a basic ha2500 head at moment but it would be interesting to hear how the hydrive cab performs with some higher end heads up against other cabs? i could also bring the stone clad TRB if y'all want to point and laugh edit [quote name='silverfoxnik' timestamp='1347578178' post='1802818'] The Amber Trust seems like a good cause to me and being music-related is always a good thing..

silverfoxnik Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Thanks Si, Not sure about Jake and the Dubstep talk yet, but if you could do something on FX (perhaps with Shep if he makes it), it would be great! Nik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverfoxnik Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 ...I'm getting worried about Plux's lack of commitment - to being a boring old fart of a bass player that is.. Well, 9 amps seems a little excessive, but it's going to be very entertaining.. Perhaps chimike needs to wade in here as he had at least that number of amps (or was it full-blown rigs) at the SE mini-bash in Littlehampton last November!

51m0n Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Are we saying we are going to try and get a meaningful comparision between 9 amps, or 9 rig combinations (amp + cab)??? Because I reckon most people struggle to get something meaningful with an A/B test, an A/B/C test is really tricky, an A/B/C/D test is just about impossible.

For example, how does an S12 compare to an Ampeg 8x10? (I havn't looked at the list so it's probably not possible but you get the idea).
