Hi.All DIY custom made. Cheaper & easier than trying to hunt around the dead horse town of Adelaide South Australia. And NOT find what I'm looking for. Basically banana plugs + & - hifi connecters wired into a speakon connector Cheers

The only way to know you will be happy. Is pack your kit and take it to where you can try it. With what you want to use. Every one here clearly wants to help. But we lack your brain, your ears and your personal taste to know what will float your boat best. Only you do. Through the experience of...

I'll spell it out. That 44 mag is a guitar amp. It will not cut it for bass. Don't even try unless you ENJOY dissapointment and suffering! If you're in the UK. Barefaced make some of the best speaker cabs I have come accross. I would just save the hassle & buy one of theirs. I've built speakers...

Oh God why am I doing this? But anyway, here goes. Having watched some of the JHS youtube vids. Having owned his Boss collab, The Angry driver. This dude lives down the pedal nerd rabbit hole & doesn't come out...... EVER! For him to announce something like this is for one reason only. That...

Alexander Howard Dumble was a boutique tube amp builder. Who died in 2022. His amps have a legendary "magic" tone. And sell for ludicrous money. Hundreds of thousands of $. Used by the likes of Eric Clapton, Ben Harper, Santana, & John Mayer and the one who made him famous Stevie Ray Vaughan...

In the words of Dr EVIL. From the Austin Powers franchise. There is only one appropriate response to all this. " There is nothing so exquisite as a shaved scrotum" Herein ends the Sermon for this evening Hey Josh. "Why so serous"? SERIOUSLY!

Might as well throw my hat in the ring. If I was looking for something. And was limited to less pricey options. I would look for something with the highest efficiency speakers I could get.

Go out & audition stuff. & perhaps spend a little more on something HE likes. @ this early stage encouragement, kindness and finding something that motivates practice. By actually sounding half decent will do more to motivate perseverance than anything else. Its not watts that matter so much as...

The problem you have is carting that fridge. To where you can audition different amps. But whatever sounds good IS good! Big ass tube amps are cumbersome, cranky @ times. But DAMN, WHAT a sound! Valve pre sections get you 8/10ths the way there. But for reliability & a ton of headroom. They are...

Low E said it best first. If you can't describe what you are trying to achieve. You may well be chasing a change. Not an improvement. Behringer are pretty good really. If yours happens to be reliable. & your pedal board seems great. I have a cheap @$$ suggestion that can offer both. Most 210's...

Picked up one EXACTLY the same in excellent condition for $100 Au But unfortunately on mine. The preamp was getting real noisy in one channel after the first two years of playing. I carefully removed both amp & preamp for future restoration. Having it blow up & take out that gorgeous speaker is...
