Hi,

I have a LG 350. Sound wise it is fine although I havn't had many other things to compare it to. I had a button fall off once but it just popped back on. My only problem is it's lack of volume, I think my bass has fairly low output. It's ok for rehearsing but has to be pretty much turned up full to cope. Not great for gigs unless it's only as a monitor or it's a quiet gig. I'm looking for something louder for gigging.

Also, I have never seen the fan turn. Anyone know if that's because it's temperature controlled or just broken?!

According to a German amp tech who has one, the LG´s pre amp is a little bit on the weak side and doesn´t fully take advantage of the power amp´s capabilities. He built himself a booster to go between pre and power amp and says it´s much louder now.

Please don´t expect me to go into any more details, I know nada about that kind of thing. :)

Did you see this online or is it someone you know? That's quite interesting. Initially I thought that would have to involve doing some serious electronics work inside the case but I guess you could just use the line in and out and plug something inbetween.

Sorry for the delay - here´s what he did (it´s in German but at least it has a link to the buffer schematic):
