    I want to hear my bass tone, not my amp tone . .

    I too like how my bass sound when I plug it direct in a board and hear it with headphones. For now, the rig that reproduce this tone for me is a Demeter VTBP-201s pre into a power amp (Demeter Minnie) and a Barefaced BB2 (or 2 if needed). The VTBP warms up the tone a bit but don't color it too...

    Official Barefaced Bass Cab Club

    Hi Tim1, I use my pair of BB2s as PA speakers more often than I use it as bass cabs. I use them on pole mounts. It sounds good and can get reasonably loud for a medium size rooms (about 200 people). I usually run bass, keys, and voices through them with a bit of kick and sax if needed. I...

    Official Barefaced Bass Cab Club

    Hi all! I bought my first BB2 last year and really like it, so I bought another one a few month ago. But I wanted to use them as PA speakers so I order the new one with the "top-hat" things underneath to put it on a pole. When ordering I ask the guys at Barefaced if it was possible to add the...

    Power amp suggestions for Demeter Pre and Barefaced cab

    Sorry guys for the delay, I was quite busy lastly. So I finally decided to buy a QSC PLX 3102 power amp and I'm really happy of it. It sound so great with my Barefaced BB2 cab, and I have plenty of power for my needs. It also pairs well with my Demeter Pre. I choose it because it have a bit...

    Power amp suggestions for Demeter Pre and Barefaced cab

    What would be a low input sensitivity ? Below 1.4 Vrms or something? I just want to understand this thing. Does increasing the gain on the pre amp increase the voltage of it's output, so it could match the input of the power amp ? I thought that I just need to raise the gain of the pre until...

    Power amp suggestions for Demeter Pre and Barefaced cab

    So Bob, is there some sort of differences between classes about sound quality or 'latency' (in lack of a better word). Since I'll be using the power amp with a instrument, and not a PA, I don't want to have some sort of delay between my attack and the sound that will come out of the cab (if...

    I'm wondering, do you guys ear or feel any difference between a class D and a class H topology?

    Power amp suggestions for Demeter Pre and Barefaced cab

    Yes I did! But I'm not sure about Carvin, I've read some bad reviews about them... and some really good too. And, with the exchange rate between USD and CAD, plus the duty fees and so, it's not that cheap to the North of the border. I don't think they have resellers here in Canada. But...

    Power amp suggestions for Demeter Pre and Barefaced cab

    I'll take a look at the Pro-Lite. For the Minnie 800D I think it will be a bit too pricey and I think it is 'only' 400 Watts at 8 ohms. I also prefer to have a separate power amp. It will give me more flexibility if I want to use another pre amp in the future.

    Power amp suggestions for Demeter Pre and Barefaced cab

    Hi everybody! It's my first post, but I'm a long time reader. You guys made me spend a lot of money ! :bag: So I'm looking for a rack mountable power amp that I'll use with my Demeter VTBP-201s pre amp. I just ordered a Big Baby 2 cab from Barefaced to complete my rig. The cab is 8 ohms and...
