    can have a few but the hangover is brought on much easier in combination

    Beta blocker: Propranolol

    Yes! for every gig. not for nerves (though it does help but mine weren't crippling by any means) but id often get debilitating hand cramps at gigs. can play for hours in the practice room. seems that whatever mind/body connection I have - those slight butterflies translate to muscle cramps...

    Got called to fill in tonight. Band playing 100% originals. How do you proceed?

    lots of low end, not a lot of definition in your tone. if you fudge it at least you can just slide it out and keep those lows rumbling booties people probably won’t even notice

    Thoughts on the Elf

    Elf/Mesa crackle noise some good info here. big take away is thermal/mechanical ratings.

    That's so cool! Here's a what-if for you.. what if I got a second ELF and did all three cabs @ 2 ohms. Think of how tall and "wall of sound" it could be.. :roflmao:

    had rehearsal last night. brought the TE 4x10. sounded loud and clear. tried it with both my speakon cables.. all good. same 1/4" cables for instrument and pedals etc. leads me to believe it was definitely the ELF hitting the backplate. No damage done, however, the ELF is still sounding...

    I don't believe there's any damage it has not happened excessively thanks!! this was our first gig together minus guitar player who couldn't get out of work. singer plays ukulele and kazoo among other silly little instruments. lots of fun!

    Yes and correct. I'll be doing some more experimenting just to double down on all this before I pull the trigger on any purchases. I'm going to isolate each cab again and also test my 4x10 8ohm TE cab that I am retrieving out of storage just to confirm that the ELF is in fact the culprit.

    yeah, searching the interwebs this morning for another 112. I have to say I was really loving the vertical-ness of that setup not have to worry about kicking it back or anything like that.

    no crackling in this clip but here she is rocking and sounding awesome. stacked all vertical and easy to hear and whatnot. RIP tiny rig. onwards and upwards..

    thanks for the solid input. I feel some kind of way about the fluff and misinformation about cabinets and their capabilities. maybe that's my own fault in part of mixing and matching without proper knowledge. then again I feel like I did the basic math.. at any rate I think I'll just match my...

    Elf/Mesa crackle noise

    apparently!:roflmao: but if the D800 is 800 watts at 4 ohms and 2 8 ohm cabs = 4 ohms and both are rated for 400 watts whats the flaw in my logic thinking thats okay?! Just that those are only recommended and at low frequencies RMS is exaggerated and I need to give myself some cushion??

    thanks for the reply!! yes its 8 ohms getting 400 and the Subway 112 is getting the other 400. definitely will heed your advice. Sad because it sounded great and was very easy to move around
