Making Room at the Bowlus Household

[tombowlus]

Well, I am starting to run out of space to cram stuff, so I probably should let some stuff go. But first, a disclaimer. I am a terrible hoarder, and I have a hard time letting something go if I think I might ever use it again. This is all stuff which I think is pretty cool, but for one reason or another, I have myself currently convinced that I can live without these particular items. That being said, I reserve the right to change my mind and decline to sell any of this stuff. I'm sick in the head, I know. But I at least wanted to be upfront about it.

These prices do not included shipping, and while I would consider an international sale, I do find sales within the USA to be less paperwork-laden, so I do have a slight preference for a sale that does not cross international borders.

I can provide pics of most of this stuff upon request. Everything is in good working order, and most things are in excellent cosmetic condition.

Thanks for looking!

Hi, Tom
Pics and stats on the Patterson/LDS cabs would be appreciated.

They are 2-way enclosures, with "long-throw" 8" drivers (ceramic magnets). I believe power handling is in the 400-450 watt range. They are both 4-ohm cabs. If you don't know, Ralf Patterson designed with Don Oatman at Low Down Sound, so basically Patterson Audio = Low Down Sound.

I'll try to take some. It's in near-mint condition.

Hi Tom,
How would you compare the two Epi T-110's to the set of Ashdown Mini48's? I would think that the Mini48 pair would be louder, but do they go as low? Also, do the Mini48's have a tweeter or a horn?

Interesting comparison. I may have to try that and get back to you.

What is the Tri208? Not familiar with that Accugroove model.

Here is a link to some information.

And here is a shot:


I believe this is the one on the bottom (without an Accugroove badge).

That would be cool if you could find the time. I know the Ashdowns are going to be way heavier, but they aren't really that much bigger in size. If they go as low and are as clear at the T-110's I would be interested in the pair.

Tom, how do the Tri208, Mini Whappo and Tri210L differ tonally (toss a Tri110L in there too if you have experience with that one (I haven't checked your blog to see))?

Here are some pictures of one, though this is not my unit (I'll try to snap one of mine):





It has two output sections, each rated to 600w into 4 ohms, I believe, and 1,200w into 2 ohms.

The Tri 208 is exceptionally smooth, very "studio accruate" sounding. It is not exceptionally loud, though.

The Mini Whappo is bigger, louder, and punchier, with a more aggressive edge and not as smooth as the Tri 208. Great cab, though (the Mini).

The Tri 210L was intended as a Mini Whappo replacement, and while it does go even louder yet, I found it to be rather pillowy on the low end and not as clear or articulate as either the Tri 208 or the Mini Whappo.

Hope this helps, Tom.

I cannot find any mention of a " HT 122S " Berg. What exactly is it?
