    Good Car Audio Amp For P/A Sub Amp?

    Thanks Wayne. The PSUs I've been looking at seem to be popular with the HAM/CB Radio crowd and they find them to be quiet. The few "noise" complaints that were mentioned were in regards to the fan being louder than they would have liked. But, some had even posted that they tightened the fan's...

    Good Car Audio Amp For P/A Sub Amp?

    Thank you for the replies. *4Mal - Yes, I remember reading something about that around back in 2012 when I bought these. The EAW engineer was a big reason for buying them I checked my email receipt just to see what I paid, bcs I know it wasn't the $349 a piece that I see them for today! Turns...

    Good Car Audio Amp For P/A Sub Amp?

    Hello! My brother used to be into high end car audio. He had one of the best sounding car systems that I have ever heard to this day. He got married around 20 years ago and soon after moved on to doing other things with his spare time... Consequently, some of his PPI amps and a few Lanzar...

    backup vox: sing bad vs don’t sing at all

    "when i listen to rehearsal recordings and actually solo my track, it’s lousy… I’m flat, honky and all over the place. ...the reality of right now is that my vocals are what they are, and wont improve much by gig day." Based upon your quotes here, I would say don't sing at all. It's not worth...

    Heavy Cabs...........

    The best tone I ever had was from a bi-amped beast of a rig.. an Acoustic 120 head on an Acoustic 2x15" cab on top of a 2x18" sub cabinet that I made with Eminence drivers on a 1978 200W Peavey Bass Series head. I was playing an Ovation Magnum stereo bass w/ an output for each amp. The 18s fit...

    "Stay below the 5th fret"

    Does the person who said this realize that the 5th fret on any string is the 10th fret on the string above it? You might as well remove the D and G strings from the bass. Those are pretty much all the "undesirable notes." loll smh..

    How are Pink Floyd considered PROG rock?

    This is how I always felt about Pink Floyd... that they invented their Own Sound, their Own Sub-Genre... Floyd. Like Hendrix, too.. There just isn't anyone else that really makes their sound. They are islands unto themselves.

    How are Pink Floyd considered PROG rock?

    That's not surprising that there would be a handful throughout the many songs on their records.. and some of those signatures actually have a familiar feel to them, where you can actually feel the "1." And as the rule, 4/4 is the common time to MosT Floyd songs. Whereas, with "Prog Bands" like...

    How are Pink Floyd considered PROG rock?

    Bingo! Yep.. that's the one! loll So then, other than Money, are there many others with uneven time? I couldn't think of any and wouldn't think there could be many, especially from Meddle thru to The Wall (or The Final Cut which is essentially a Waters record anyway).

    How are Pink Floyd considered PROG rock?

    Of Floyd's gamut of songs, I'm only aware of Have A Cigar as having an uneven time signature. I am not so thoroughly versed in all of their music to know what the others would be. But as far as Cigar goes, I recall someone in a Floyd documentary, it may have been Gilmour or maybe the studio...
