    BVV3000 INFINIUM Trial

    That is what i thought when i desoldered and resoldered those parts, and it doesn't make sense. So the only thing i could think of was some cold joint in that zone and the 4700uf/25 being a little off. And that kept me thinking and i tried to measure the parts again. As i said earlier...

    BVV3000 INFINIUM Trial

    Hi. Got to get back to you guys about the bvv3000 as I think maybe it will help someone. A few years ago, no more than one year after the warranty repair, the amp died again. Got some tips from Audio Repair Berlin and a friend of mine but it didn't work. Well, actually i also have an Alphabass...

    BVV3000 INFINIUM Trial

    Hi to all. Unfortunately, my best sounding amp doesn't come out from standby, I think It was powered up without the speaker cable plugged in - can't tell for shure if i crancked the volume up without the skeaker. Then i realised folks were remodelling the rehearsal space and disconnected the...

    BVV3000 INFINIUM Trial

    Well, just right before going silent (blown fuses?), my unit was emitting strange noises through the cabs and after playing with it for about 1h, it went standby on its own. I noticed earlier in that week the infinium leds always lighted up randomly as supposed to. The next day I powered it, I...

    BVV3000 INFINIUM Trial

    My bvv3000 sounds awesomely good since audio systemas in Spain fixed the unit. Main issue was the PSU module and one bad tube - as they reported. Bought one Bugera 6550 and they fixed the PSU. Regularly I play it through 2x warwick wca11 pro and did a couple of gigs only since the repair because...

    Behringer repair services in Spain (audiosistemas) nailed it. Bad PSU and one bad 6550. Now it's up and running and is quiet as a mouse. Let's hope it lasts!

    Sire Bass Club!

    hi guys Happy owner here of a v7 5! Top quality and top tone for the price. Sorry for the crappy pics. It's very well built for the price and comparing it with my other 5ers - fender JB S1 switch, warwick LX5, BassCollection JZ series - it is a serious contender!

    6 String BASS Club (Guitarists keep out!)

    Thanks. I also have a 4 string sr500, maybe from 1995/1996?, customized to fretless with a new remade Ebony fretboard. It's quite light alright. Also played a few times with a 2000/2001 sr705. Great tone, super light. I'll have a go at the sr306 then! Regards, Adriano

    6 String BASS Club (Guitarists keep out!)

    Hi guys i'm thinking in returning to the 6 string territory and two basses cought my eye: ibanez sr306eb-wk and the HB bz-6000 NT. I like them both already just by looking at Thomman's. The price and looks are right. It seems to me the that the HB is way heavier than the ibanez just by...

    BVV3000 INFINIUM Trial

    Thank you for chiming in, JimmyM. My BVV3000 gigged only 3 times. It doesn't have much use like I wished it would as it looks just like new. Sincerely, my usage is negligible for this type of thing as it got more use in rehearsals. Again, my alphabass (with me) stayed already several hours in...
