    Help me decide! (115 cabinet)

    It's not a contest, men; the tube head will drive the 2x15, and my PF-500 (and any amp in the near future) will drive the two 18Sounds. I won't be surprised when the stacked 15's win, but I won't be getting rid of my old behemoth either :)

    Help me decide! (115 cabinet)

    No, no. I don't have a car, so it's all about space when we drive to our gig, and the 2x15 is a lot bigger than these little cabs. So that's why I needed a smaller cab just to put it in his house, so my bigger rig can go with the other band. And if I buy this last cab, I've also got a small one...

    Well, the seller contacted me today, to ask if I'd be interested in the second cab as well. I've reserved it now, and I'll be picking it up in a week or four!

    So, I've finished the speaker cloth, and if I must say, it looks pretty damn awesome. But that's just me, I like it :)

    Help me decide! (115 cabinet)

    ..well, I'm kind of lazy, and I've already got two perfectly working 1/4" speaker cables. Buying a speakon cable means either going out and getting one, or ordering one, and I'm not sure if it'd be the best choice. Then again, speakon cables don't cost the world, and I can easily order one too...

    Help me decide! (115 cabinet)

    Picked up the cab just this evening, sounds awesome. There's but one problem; the only connection is speakon, and I don't own any speakon cables. However, I've got some 1/4" jacks (open style), and could use them to connect the cab to my amp for the time being. My question is, is there any...

    Indeed! If I like the sound, I'll probably grab them right away!

    Alright, thanks for your information! There's been a new reply on my search, a bass cab with Eighteensound 15w700 speakers in it. It looks like he made the cabs himself, I wonder how those speakers sound and work? He lives right in my city, so that's ideal. The specs he shared are: 15"...

    Dear Talkbass, I need to grab a new cabinet. I'm looking for a 115, and I've asked around, and got several options. Now, I don't have any experience with any of these cabs or their brethren, so I'd like any help I can get. The cab will unleash the sound of my PF-500, and I need it to be smaller...

    I need tubes!

    Alright, been looking to new stuff for a change; another question for those willing to answer. Reminding you of the JSX case, how I'd like the clean channel of that one; how would other amps compare? I've seen a Jet City 100H for €380, which is OVER MY BUDGET for a head (this means eating...

    I need tubes!

    Yeah, I'm running a LPB-1 into the preamp to drive those tubes more. Also, forget to mention this, but at the rehearsals for another band I'm using a Peavey JSX halfstack, a hundredwatts guitar amp. Put it on clean, gain all the way, LPB-1 into it, master all the way back to avoid blowing your...

    Pretty please?

    I need tubes!

    Alright, I was searching aroud again, and found some other toys. Let me first ask you, how much drive is there to get with a tube preamp? I found an Ashdown ABM 500/210 for 550, as well as an Ampeg BA300; 250 for the 210 version and 350 for the 115. Are these any good? Of course, there's also...

    I need tubes!

    As I said in my first post, I think my PF 500 is broken or something for it rips the preamp apart when turning up the gain. Maybe I'd be able to let someone fix it... But if I understand correctly, you all advise against using the Marshall-soundalike in combination with the 115's?
