    Replacing speaker cabs to increase sensitivity

    I love my Micro VR rig. I really do. My only gripe is the cabs have a fairly low sensitivity rating (95, IIRC) and I wondered if replacing speakers could help me increase it. Sometimes I have to push the head harder than I'd like (I have to SVT210AV cabs). Last time I tried it with a single Mesa...

    Patch cables, PSU and interference

    I'll try to keep it short. My board is a Rockboard tres 3.1, and I used to attach the PSU and its adapter on a small additional platform called "The Tray" attached on the bottom of the board. On one side of it, I had my DI box, a Radial Stagebug. This is "the tray": Later, I replaced "The...

    Textured rounds?

    Saw this on a box of D'Addario ProSteels...it says "textured" which I suppose it's not the same as "coated" but I can't figure out what that means. What kind of strings are these? Any difference compared to "standard" (?) rounds?

    Home theatre's subwoofer damaging walls????

    Last week I noticed some decorative bricks in my living room have started detaching from the wall. Two have eventually fallen off and few others seem to be going to fall off soon. There are no humidity spots (those black marks you see in the picture are generic dirt) and that portion of wall is...

    Stupid question about strings

    I am one that craves for that brand-new-ultra-zingy sound of new strings. I wish it would last forever. My skin disagrees though, I have sweaty hands (very strings-unfriendly sweat apparently) and I tend to "kill" that zing in hours. Maybe it's typical of strings and not my "fault" but I more...

    Keyboard amp/monitor for home use

    As the title says... I am about to carry a Juno DS home to fiddle around and write new material with. I need an active speaker to pair it with. As I would use it only at home I don't need super loud stuff but I'd like something with a very strong sound quality. Don't even want to spend more than...

    Anyone from/around Strasbourg? I need help!!!

    Ok guys I know this is a strange request but I need someone in the Strasbourg area to go and talk to someone at "Musique Shop". I have ordered an item one month ago (note: it said "in stock") and since then I had to send them several emails and attempt a dozen phone calls before they finally...

    Shure GLX-D discontinued

    I've just come to know that this spring Shure has discontinued the GLX-D wireless system. I can't figure out why except there's an upgraded version coming. The size and function of that little unit were amazing. The built-in tuner was impressive and super sensitive, excellent for 5-string...

    Modding pedals - lowering noise floor

    Title says it all. I am totally in love with the tone I get from the Joyo Orange Juice but its noise floor is unbearable (to me, at least). Is there a way to mod a pedal to lower his noise floor?

    What's wrong with me and overdrives?

    I'll cut to the chase. I struggle to dial an even slightly overdrive sound out of any pedal. They all seem to have a weak drive. Everything I have ever used. The gain/drive knob must be turned at 2-3 o'clock to get a barely noticeable effect. This is not right. It's not how they're supposed to...

    Black pearloid blocks question

    I am about to order a neck on Warmoth. I would like to add black pearloid blocks on it but I am not sure they are going to look like this: or like this: Of course I prefer those on the first picture. I don't want them to be too "white". Would someone share theirs so I can see they're ok?

    NBD? school me plz

    I am about to pull the trigger on this baby. Thing is, I am not so "schooled" on Sterling/EBMM as I am, for example, on Squier/Fender. Surely it looks gorgeous.What about build quality, reliability, and such? I still think that for 400€ it's worth it. In the worst case it will remain on display...

    Christmas is coming, and I put an eye on a Morningstar MC8 to act as a master controller for my Boss 200 & 500 pedals. It would be my first venture into the MIDI world. I know absolutely NOTHING! So, there are a few questions I need to be answered. Be kind and PATIENT with me LOL No.1: If I...

    NPD Effectrode Blackbird

    Saw one for sale for 270€, I couldn't resist. Should arrive next week. Any owners here? Did I make a good move? I've read on the manual the EQ section is based on the Fender Blackface Twin Reverb (Tone Stack?), so where should I start to have the most neutral response, to begin with?

    NBD...but it's gonna wait till Xmas!!!

    The day has come. I purchased this back in February just before the covid thing, and I had already planned some refinish work with my luthier to give my wife her dream bass. Unfortunately things got halted so it could not be completed in time for her birthday in June. I picked it up this...

    PSU: switches?

    This might be a bit of a n00b question, but it's something that gave me a lot of thinking lately, as I purchased some pretty nice pedals and the fear of damaging them has grown. Long story short: I see no PSUs with an on/off switch, so in order to turn power off one just pulls the plug, right...

    Hey all! Quick poll! I am customizing a P Bass, body will be painted matte black, and have these two pickguards to choose from. First one features a brushed-aluminium-like wrap, the second one has s a similar texture but is a semi-glossy surface. Which one would would you think would pair better?

    Multiple wireless systems - advice needed

    Hello there! Merry Whatever everyone! Here's my "problem" (bad english aside): my wife is using a Shure GLXD16E wireless system to send her bass sound to the pedalboard and being able to run across the stage (the whole venue sometimes LOL).
