    Cabinet Coupling Query

    I'll mic them up once I have, and do some A/B/C/D.

    Any Thunder Bay-ssists Here? Wondering about the live show landscape in “Northern” Ontario.

    I dont anymore, down toward Ottawa now. I'd look at Kenora, Dryden, Sioux Lookout, Ignace, and Fort Francis as places to travel to. It's odd to say but Tbay is the center of most things there.

    Any Thunder Bay-ssists Here? Wondering about the live show landscape in “Northern” Ontario.

    Forgot to mention, check out the Cancer Bats if you havent already. They are playing April 12th.

    Any Thunder Bay-ssists Here? Wondering about the live show landscape in “Northern” Ontario.

    Im not from Thunder Bay but from a small NWO town between it and Winnipeg. TBay has a lot of cultural diversity, and I expect there is probably a decent metal scene. That said, I imagine the gigs will be fairly small outside of the odd festival. So if its something you're doing as a hobby/side...

    Cabinet Coupling Query

    Update: Pulled the trigger on the HD112 ($450 CAD all in, shipping and tax) from L&M Gearhunter. We'll see how it goes!

    Cabinet Coupling Query

    The barefaced is switchable between 4 and 12 ohm, so if I run that at 12 and the Hartke at 8, I get parallel 4.8 ohm. I've rationalized that in this arrangement the the Hartke gets more power but its less sensitive. There is an amount of it that is having a cleaner stack look also. I have to...

    Cabinet Coupling Query

    Hi all, Posting what might be a very subjective affair, but humor me if you dont mind. I currently have two bass cabs, a Barefaced Two10S and a Hartke HD112. I have a shot at a matching HD112. If I got it, I'd probably sell the barefaced. Looking for opinions on this. I like both of them. I...

    Source Audio Kingmaker - Under powered a digital pedal?

    Thankfully this worked (0.8 software + firmware reload)! Back in business, thank you! Hopefully this thread will help others. Now.. question is, will the pedal be happy with the 500mA output on my Donner power supply. It has done well with my NuX MG-30. Any thoughts?

    Source Audio Kingmaker - Under powered a digital pedal?

    Hi all, Hoping I could get some help or maybe some attention from a manufacturer rep. I recently picked up a second hand Source Audio Kingmaker. Had a blast toying with it hooked up to my laptop and using the supplied wall wort. Then I thought, let's try these presets on my pedal board for...

    90's Model Ampeg SVT III PRO - Seeking Detail

    Hi everyone, I've found some TB threads regarding the different SVT3 (Pro) varieties, but not much substantial detail on differences. https://www.talkbass.com/threads/going-to-buy-an-svt3-which-one.1474552/page-2 I am interested in the model with the Red/Blue "SVT" logo. From the Ampeg...

    Little Marcus 250 - FX Loop/EQ

    Hi all, I have an MB Little Marcus 250, which has an effects send/return *and* has a Pre/Post-EQ button which I presume would dictate whether the EQ is before the loop or after. I have changed the loop in the amp to series from parallel. I find, however that regardless of Pre/Post position, the...

    Sire Bass Club!

    Can anyone indicate where I might be able to find a drop-in high mass bridge for the 2nd Gen V7 that will ship to Canada. The Albridge model seems to be all I can find but won't ship int'l.

    Advice on gear (Little Marcus/Phil Jones)

    So I ended up going with a Hartke HD112. In your opinion(s) - is this going to bring me where I need to be? It has switchable 4/8 ohm impedance so could run alone or with the PJB C2. Also, for curiosity's sake. How is the 40W Rumble (10", 8 ohm) able to keep up in this setting? Cabinet size...

    Advice on gear (Little Marcus/Phil Jones)

    Thanks both for the feedback. I mostly suspected this was the case. The 2x8s seem attractive but I'm cautious of ending up with 2x under-capable cabs. In the 210/112/115 realm, should I look to buy an over-rated cab like a 400-600W rated range to get the most boom? Or is simply matching at the...
