Not impressed with the dB rating of my new bins

[EBS_freak]

I don't get it? Are these new Barefaced cabs?

Build quality looks to be an improvement if they are 😂

They could be too hard to handle?

Listen to some Garbage through them!!

The roadies come and re-arrange mine every other Tuesday

And here was me thinking the fliptop design had had its day...

[funkgod]

I had 2 of these,
They have built in quality wheels
So easy to get about,
I don't think yours are a matched pair tho, did you get them separately ?
a bit empty in the mid but great if you like a flat base but the top end is a bit flappy
But for what they are I thought they did the job well and were wheely wheely good

Bill Fitzmaurice will be along soon to explain why these top loading bins do not perform as well as horn loaded bins.

Surely opening the lids would class as variable ports lol

They do both kinds of music - rock AND roll.

No, seriously, anyone have any idea why the bins have '89dB' on the back? The noise of the machine collecting them?

[color=#000000][font=Verdana, Verdana, sans-serif][size=3]It's the sound level the bin lid makes when dropped shut from an angle of 90 degrees.[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#000000][font=Verdana, Verdana, sans-serif][size=3]It's covered by an EU directive (what isn't?) and designed to minimise noise disruption for early morning collections.[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#000000][font=Verdana, Verdana, sans-serif][size=3]The bins are designed in such a way that when the lid falls, it creates a cushion of air just before it shuts, minimising the noise though this rarely works.[/size][/font][/color]
