Dood Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 The euro price list translates:- 1,820.00 EUR = 1,437.96 GBP Euro United Kingdom Pounds 1 EUR = 0.790088 GBP 1 GBP = 1.26568 EUR - I'm thinking about [b]800 quid[/b] to you then...
Steve Woodcock Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Blimey, what have you got your eye on to replace it with?
Dood Posted June 5, 2008 Author Posted June 5, 2008 well later on, something I dont need to spend money on, so I am thinking about freeing up some funds! Hence, once again I am just putting on a fairly low price. I *should* really put the amp up for £1000, but I think £800 + delivery is fair.
Dood Posted June 5, 2008 Author Posted June 5, 2008 Actually, [b]£800[/b] including delivery to mainland UK. Yep.. I'm selling now!
Finbar Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Man, GAS. Bit overkill for what I'm going to need though. Good luck with the sale What cab are you running this into out of interest?
Dood Posted June 5, 2008 Author Posted June 5, 2008 Lol.. Overkill??? Noooo... t'is the doggies doo-dahs!! I'm running it into my Epifani UL-610. I also used to run it into 2 Tech Sound Systems 4x10 cabs. Both set ups do a massive amount of clean powerful bass with tons of headroom. ;o)

Dood Posted June 5, 2008 Author Posted June 5, 2008 Yes! Powersoft + SVP + Harma STR's is pretty 'mazing actually!!

Finbar Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Arg, I'd only budgeted around 5-600 for a poweramp, and 600 for a cab ;p Infact, this looks like I need to start a thread!
steve-soar Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Hi Dan what do you think would be the best cabs to match the amp, for a compact set up?

[quote name='steve-soar' post='213585' date='Jun 5 2008, 11:50 PM']Hi Dan what do you think would be the best cabs to match the amp, for a compact set up?[/quote] Steve, - Bit like asking 'what's the best tone' mate! There are so many different cabs out there and it would depend on what a person was looking for, hearing in their head and what bass/outboard was being used. For example, I have owned Accugroove, Tech, Epifani, Hartke and gawwwwd knows what else... they all sounded amazing, but all for different reasons. If I were choosing compact from the gear I have owned, I would go for the Tech cabs. I loved them! I was a numbnuts for selling them!! but GAS got the better of me! For fave tone, NOTHING has beaten my SVT 2 Pro upon 2 Hartke 4.5XL's. No way compact, but it was a tone that ALWAYS made other rigs sound woolly and weak! lol (also wrecked my back, but thats another story!!!!!) I really liked my Accugroove and currently the Epifani is just starting to break in more and sound fuller. It's the nearest I have had to the earthquake abilities of the Hartke's but a more prominent upper mid tone. Oooh! I missed one! I use an Aguilar GS-112 for writing and practice sessions.. What a wonderful little cab! Yes! I havent tried that with the powersoft. I think it would make quite a nice noise ;o) lots of round bottom.. and surprisingly deep for a little cab. I still remember what Homer's MB LM2 and 2x GS-112 rig sounded like at an early bass bash!! Very sweet!!!
Finbar Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Don't worry Dan, I wasn't asking you to drop to £600 It ain't like I have owt you'd want as trade either! I'd love to have a few more moneys and take this off you though!
Dood Posted June 6, 2008 Author Posted June 6, 2008 It's ok mate! I wasn't offended or anything! I did done fawgaawt to put in some smilies! well,I'm open to a bit of negotiation ;o)
Dood Posted June 8, 2008 Author Posted June 8, 2008 Price drop with immediate effect due to researching online prices [b]£700 + delivery mainland UK[/b] I won't be dropping the price further at all.
Dood Posted June 12, 2008 Author Posted June 12, 2008 Beeeeee-umpage! Talk to me folks! Will consider payment options, if It makes life easier!
Dood Posted June 15, 2008 Author Posted June 15, 2008 Heartless bumpage! As it is Sunday and I am in a good mood, I am going to say something very silly. [b]Make me an offer I can't refuse![/b] I have seen a couple of things that I am interested in getting and my G.A.S could get you a great deal! The amp weighs very little.. (VERY little in comparison to the quality of it's huge output) so shipping would be not-a-lot. Or you can come over tp pick the beasty up (with one hand) lol.
waynepunkdude Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 £1.50 and a bag of sherbet lemons ? Wish i had anywhere near the money for it.

I think the 'Cabanna' chocolate bar should be brought back too!

steve-soar Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Come on people, this amp with your fav pre would be youge!!!
Finbar Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 If I'd had a bit more cash when putting my rig together, I'd have had it in an instant. That much power in something that light is obscene. Good luck with the sale
