Merton Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 (edited) Loving the CTM and dual Compact rig! If I had the space I think that it is mighty close to my dream rig, though maybe I’d go for two Super Compacts instead coz they are my favouritest of all cabs ever. Glad it’s working out Edited August 4, 2019 by Merton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad it’s working out I need to gig it a few more times to learn the amp, not be lazy and just pop a class D into my back pocket, the CTM is full of character. My only other valve experience is with an SVT and that was a case of plug it in, turn it on and play, perfect sound right out of the box. I think the Ashdown has much more flexibility so will need me to learn it's ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinnDave Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Having been a Barefaced user for some years now (Super Twin #S001) I had a revelation last night, when I was unable to transport my gear to a headline slot at a festival in Kent and used a borrowed lightweight 100w combo - which sounded great! Seriously questioning the need to keep a large and expensive piece of kit (plus two Ashdown heads) when all of my gigs are DI'd into the PA.
