Poll: Name The Bass Amplifier - Ideas Please...

[dustandbarley]

Sorry for the lack of imagination, but I had a quick look at the [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-valve"]Wikipedia page fro multi valve engines[/url] and note one of the first cars to have 4 valves per cylinder was called [i]"la Torpille"[/i][color=#252525][font=sans-serif] (torpedo) and I liked the Spinal Tap (Big Bottom) lyric reference.[/font][/color]

[font="sans-serif"][color="#252525"]​Also among early 4 valve single bikes where the Triumph [i]Ricardo[/i] (a bit lame)[/color][/font][color=#252525][font=sans-serif] [/font][/color][url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudge-Whitworth#Rudge_Four"]a[/url]nd the [i]Rudge Four[/i] (Meaty)

As it's all valve, call it the V.Max. As in Yamaha's best ever muscle bike.

If my iPad allowed the emoticons, it would be PMSL one. Ah Buell. The looks promise so much. Great look and great handling though.

Neptune or Poseidon.

Both gods of the sea, so go with the colour. And they both wield a Trident (a three pronged spear), to match your three power options.

I would call it MANTIS as they are green in colour and pretty bandass creatures!
I would also consider EVOLUTION as its a new project and maybe the start of something big

Flapper, as in trouser flapping loud.

As in the lambretta model but could also stand for "Total Valve 200 watts"

Bikes? Amps? Four valves? Hmm... square fours. How about

ARIEL

or

MATCHLESS

?

Hey, I just have the great ideas, it's up to everyone else to find out if they're actually feasible!

A powerful wave of sound coming from a sea foam green box?

Gotta call it TSUNAMI

[skankdelvar]

Thinking about cars and aircraft of a certain period, the primary sources of names were (i) edged weapons (ii) dangerous animals (iii) inclement, windy weather and (iv) place names including but not limited to British cities and Italian holiday resorts. In this spirit I would offer:

* The MJW Halberdier

* The MJW Cougarino

* The MJW Rashabar (The '[i]Black Wind' of Iraq[/i])

* The MJW Norwich Mk1 Tourer

* The MJW Ancona Gran Veloce
