So it's back to college and what better thing to do on the side than play music? Rather, make music. Now I have a few choices. 1) Have an acoustic band with my one friend who seems to be inconsistent with his singing quality but great with his ability to write lyrics, sing, and play the...

Ok, I'm not exactly sure what I should title this as. I'll try to keep it short and sweet. On most basses there are 1/4" inputs, I have Tourrette Syndrome and OCD which will 'make' me take the cord out of the bass with the amp on. I know at higher levels this could damage/blow the speaker of...

I have no idea if I am doing damage to my speaker because there's 3 possibilities that could be happening. 1. Clipping (un-likely) 2. Speaker bottoming out and voice coil hitting the back plate 3. Speaker is hitting the grill How do I tell for sure what is happening here? I know the...

It's not finding one that's a problem, it's the parents! Background real fast. I'm 17, just graduated high school, start college in 7.5 days, and moved into a second house my dad inherited due to my Oma and Uncle's recent decease. I'm fortunate enough to have my parents pay for my college, so...

I have had a pre/power amp set-up before and was pretty pleased with it. For reasons I can't justify now I sold that set-up. With some fresh cabs I am considering going back to that set-up, getting rid of the Genz-Benz GBE 600 for the Aggie pre-amp (which would mate well with my Aggie GS212)...

I get impedance's, but I have recently come into a 4 Ohm Avatar 2x12 and 8 Ohm Aguilar 2x12. They sound beautiful, but there is obviously different amounts of power going to each cab. I'm not sure of the sensitivity difference and efficiency playing a part here, but due to the Aguilar...

I'm sorry, I searched for that head and the post you mentioned and have failed to find anything yet. Sorry if I did repeat a thread.

Ever since I started playing bass I have been going through equipment faster than a man being dragged into Victoria's secret, trying to get out of course. Looking back now I have traded and sold gear that I should never have let slip through my fingers, but it happened and I have to live with...

I have thought about doing a DIY recently and remember from previous posts that some of the speakers I choose won't work for a bass cab. I'm not exactly sure why, though I know it's true (you guys are smarter than me). Anyways I have two ideas in mind, the one I am opting for is a cab with 4...

Playing my bass I will have 1-2 speakers that "buzz" when I play certain notes on my bass. Well I've used the search bar and the responses I saw were as follows... -Screws on the speakers are loose or not tightened all the way -The voice coil is rubbing -Too much power is going into the...

Well I was thinking of making a cheap combo (one that is lightweight and doesn't cost much) that sounds better than my Rumble 15. I'm not sure on the head that I am going to be using yet, but I was looking at these all range speakers [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] They are small I know, I...

Well, I don't honestly care which one I get... but I would like to get lighting for the interior of my car, preferably a set-up that I can just plug into a lighter outlet. Any suggestions? Also, a little off topic, does anyone know where to find an armrest that is not attached to...

Well, I don't know how exactly to word this... but I will use an Ampeg 8x10 for an example. The Ampeg 8x10 has a grille made out of cloth, (if not you know what I am talking about) and that lets the sound waves travel freely through and on to the listener(s). That is what I am referencing to...

Well, I have always been interested in a 90's American ''boat,'' so to say. It's a 6 seat-er, 5.7L V8, 1991 Caprice Classic. It has 75000 miles and my friend wants to trade for my 2002 Chevy Venture with 106,000 miles and a rebuilt motor. I won't go into the specifics, but does that seems...

Well I have been through various rigs, as I'm sure many have, and I want to settle on one that will suffice. I would ultimately like to have a single cabinet to do it all, so if I made a 4x10 box and filled it with 4 Delta-10A's (350 watts RMS) and wired it down to 2 ohms and pushed 625 watts...

First off, I hope this is the right forum :x If not I'm sorry, it's been a while since I've came to this site. I have a SX 5 string Jazz Bass and a GK 4x10 and 1x15 (BLX-II) that I want to put up for a trade on craigslist or the sort, but I have no idea what I'm supposed to look for value...

Ok, so I'm looking to trade this guy for a Genz Benz GBE 600 head. It can run at 2 ohms, and I would like to get that power out of it. What I was wondering was, can I utilize the two 1/4" outs to two 8 ohm cabinets bringing it to 4 ohms, and use one speakon out through a 4 ohm cab to bring it...

Well, I searched everywhere and I simply can't find any information on this cab! What I really want to know is: -Ohm Rating -RMS Watt Rating -Sound Anything would be cool. Thx. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Crate-BT215E-Bass-Cab?sku=601143

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed] I'm considering buying this bass, and I don't know much about this series. Any help/comments would be appreciated.

I have a Peavey VB-2 225 Tube head, and up against two 2x12 guitar amps and drums I can't hear myself. I literally have to sit on my 4x10 and feel what I'm playing to have an idea of what's going on. I like hearing myself in a band, so what's wrong? I had the Master Volume at about 8 and the...

I cannot find any place that tells me how to wire 4 4 ohm speakers to an 8 ohm load. Isn't there a series/parallel connection I can do to achieve this? Along with that can I get 4 8 ohm speakers to a 4 ohm load? Rockford Fosgate's wiring diagram isn't helping me, so don't recommend that.

I don't really know if it is on all of their basses, but the Warwick Corvette Standard Ash I own jumped from 850 to 1350. Is this because it's a new bass and is in high demand? Or because it's a German made bass and the Euro is worth so much more than the US dollar?

It's not a typical thread, I understand ohms. I have 2 cabinets, one wired at 2 Ohms and the other unknown. I need to re-wire them both to 8 ohms, but none of the speakers have any indication as to what impedance they are! They are custom built cabs so I can't look up the speakers, is there...

Well I've been looking at this deal for about a half year now. There are some every-now and then on ebay, but I have never pushed myself to actually buy one. Can you give me any tips on if it looks good and legit (for the price). I plan on using these cabs for a while in two different bands...

So I really want to know if this is true. I was jamming with my brother who plays drums, because of this I had to turn it up quite a bit to try and hear myself. After my 'rents got back from they're walk they told me to turn it down because I was cracking the walls from the vibrations. It...

Well I've made a few DIY cabs, and now someone has asked me to make 2 4x10's for them. Since they aren't mine I'm going to make sure I don't cheap out where I shouldn't. So when I'm installing the 1/4 input's on each cab, well I need a input plate that will accept a 1/4 input thing. Where can...

Here's the question: How do I wire a 1/4 input jack up to my speaker? Here's the story: I didn't have enough money to buy myself anything to pair up with my Behringer 2x10. If you have any experience with it, you should know it doesn't handle low frequencies well. I had some inspiration...

Well when I bridge my power-amp it comes out to be 1650 watts RMS @ 8 Ohms, I want to utilize most of this power with one cabinet so it's easier to lug around. Any idea of what might do me justice? It's a Crown Xs700 amp in case you wanted more specs EDIT:Or any 2 Ohm cabinet? Something around...

I have a BBE 2 way stereo/3 way mono crossover. I only have 1 Dual channel amplifier, and a 2x10 and 1x15. So I only need on side of the crossover, will that work in a set-up? Oh! I'm asking because forgot to mention I will shortly be making my 1x15 cab, and if it won't work I won't try it.

Well first off I am new to the site and I have searched threads, but haven't found an answer to my question just yet. So sorry if this is a repeated thread. If I am going to 'build' a rig using a Power Amp and Pre Amp, would it matter if the Power Amp is specifically for bass? Or can I just...
