    Newbie question involving compressor and preamp

    Absolutely agree, the compressor limits the dynamics and doesn't allow you to understand how you are using your fingers. Especially for practice and exercises, no compressor. I would also advise you to get a traditional compressor, with threshold, ratio, attack time, release time and gain, in...

    Bass Cleff - Isobar 410

    Great question that I don't know the answer to. It is certainly not a scientific certainty, I am only saying what I have observed by playing and listening. It could be that the idea of placing the drivers in that position generates counterphases that reduce the volume at a certain distance...

    Bass Cleff - Isobar 410

    One feature I forgot to mention is that this strange and peculiar arrangement of the drivers positioned converging at 135° Deg. it has an effect that I really appreciate. Maximum volume with very deep bass is achieved with the cabinet right next to the feet, as is often the case on very small...

    Bass Cleff - Isobar 410

    I would like to add some considerations that respond in part to some posts. If isobaric speakers were the perfect solution, they would not have been abandoned and all manufacturers would build them. The concept "isobaric" is that there is the least possible volume between the two drivers...

    Bass Cleff - Isobar 410

    You're right, you can't see it from the pictures, I'll have to open it, I'm missing a picture... In the image "The Isobaric Heart" you can see the support where the internal speakers are fixed, Anyway yes, of course, they are 2 10" speakers placed in front of two other identical ones. I...

    Bass Cleff - Isobar 410

    The speakers, tweeter and crossover are from an old Ampeg 410 PRO which I found in excellent condition. Right now I don't have the exact part number but they are Eminence / 4 x 150W RMS / 8 Ohms

    Bass amp, the big shootout!

    Exactly! And speaking of weight, I have been carrying around my SWR Megoliath 410 for a long time, with my very faithful V-4B (Classic series) on it. All other cabs or amps feel light to me :D

    Ampeg SVT 7 Pro Club

    I've never been able to test the 3 at stage volumes, but I can assure you that the 7 pumps a lot at the low frequencies. It's my first class D amp, and I have to say it largely belies all the negative rumors I've heard, it sounds good, very good! Last night, I brought home an old (very old) SVT...
