    Peavey Mk III series 300 CHS head

    You should be fine then. I find that, technical stuff aside. If you can plug one thing into another (within reason), things will work. Plus it's darn near impossible to hurt a peavey :D

    Bridging a stereo amp that doesn't offer bridged mode (Fender BXR 400)

    It's a yorkville xc410, which doesn't seem too predispositioned to coming apart...

    Bridging a stereo amp that doesn't offer bridged mode (Fender BXR 400)

    Oi duh! Yeah the outputs would have to be 180 degrees out of phase for that to work. http://www.bcae1.com/bridging.htm has all the info...

    Bridging a stereo amp that doesn't offer bridged mode (Fender BXR 400)

    I may do some research into this to see if the channels are in or out of phase. I figure I can hook up the + leads from both amps to a voltmeter and if it sits at or around 0V across it should work.

    Bridging a stereo amp that doesn't offer bridged mode (Fender BXR 400)

    So even though other stereo power amps are bridged all the time, it's probably not a good idea? That's kind of what I figured and it was just a thought, but now I'm curious as to what exactly would go wrong... is it a danger that the DC offset would be wrong?

    Peavey Mk III series 300 CHS head

    Yes, as long as the ashdown has a power amp in (which most large combos seem to have). The only thing to possibly worry about is mashing impedance by connecting the cabs in series and ending up with a 16ohm load or something, which shouldn't damage the amp, but will reduce the output.

    Bridging a stereo amp that doesn't offer bridged mode (Fender BXR 400)

    I have a Fender BXR Dual Bass 400, which has two 200 watt/4ohm amps in it for either bi-amp or stereo operation. I have no need for bi-amping since I have one cab and I always run it in stereo. (If you're asking why I bought a bi-amping amp right now, it's because it cost about 1/3 of what it's...

    Peavey T40 distortion/overdrive

    a few turns of the silver screws to the E-string side of the pickup should lower that end away. Even the toaster pickups are super-hot for passive PUs so I always use the active input with mine (otherwise you should be able to pick up something for cheap to pad the input). Play it through...

    Does the Peavey T-40 have neck dive?

    Lol, yeah there's definitely neck dive with the neck of the player...none at all on the bass though. It's heavy for sure, but not unbearable at all...freakin' fantastic bass, esp. after you set it up right. <3 my T-40

    [Minneapolis/MN Thread] Where's the "beer" thread icon?

    I go to Eclipse Music in West St. Paul. Guy (the younger one is the one I've dealt with) does great work and he's a bass player. Great work and great conversationalist as well! Also...Hi! Lived in the twin cities my whole life but I only recently discovered TB, been in one other band before...

    Yorkville XC410 bi-ampable?

    I figured as much, thanks.

    Peavey T-40 Club

    The T-40 has been my first bass, my bass for the last 5 years, and, unless something changes, my bass for a long time to come. I recently got around to really tuning it to my liking...tightening up the truss rod, adjusting individual sting actions, etc. and the thing sounds golden. Only thing...

    Yorkville/Traynor Club?!

    Just picked up a Yorkville XC410 for $250 used...loving it so far! Posted a few questions about it here.

    Yorkville XC410 bi-ampable?

    I just picked up a Yorkville XC410 for $250 and a Fender BXR Dual 400 for $100 (steal! :hyper:) and since the BXR is a bi-amp head, I'm wondering if the Yorkville is bi-ampable. Quite honestly I didn't realize that the BXR didn't bridge the amps until I just read about it online, though it...
