    Crate B200XL is quiet - Can I fix it?

    Hi all, I bought an old 500W Crate B200XL with a 2x15 cabinet off of Marketplace and the guy assured me it was PLENTY loud for gigging around my area. Yeah, I should have tested it before buying but it was $150 and he was the weird type of guy who thinks everyone that comes to buy something...

    Bass cabinet question

    Bought a cheap Crate bass cabinet for my son ($45). The seller said the input jack was damaged, I can replace that. So I open the cabinet to find the wires for the jack: no wires anywhere in the cabinet. I pulled the speakers to see what they are rated so I can look up a wiring diagram. The...

    I have an old Crate BX-80 with the stock 80 watt 8 ohm Eminence 15. It sounds like crap. Want to install a Celestion 4 ohm but don't know if the BX-80 amplifier can handle a 4 ohm load.

    For sake of tinkering, has anyone else had a Crate BX15 where they lost speaker output and headphone output and resolved the issue? What was the remedy you found?

    Crate B200XL

    So I'm new to the bass and I picked up a crate b200xl head for a steal ($35) but now it's impossible to find the matching 1810.

    Another Crate Top

    About a year ago I built a guitar for our rhythm player using a Cutty Sark crate top. There was enough wood left over from the crate to build a bass for my next project. The body is cut out, the top pieces are glue together with the back sanded, and the neck partly finished. The body will be...

    Crate BT25 (Good For Practice?)

    A local business is having a used equipment sale and I saw they had a Crate Bt25 for sale. I've got a Rumble 500 (way too loud to practice solo) and A Rumble 125 that's got no power supply so I use it as an EQ through a Peavey KB60. This has been an alright setup for practice, but these two amps...

    NCD - Crate BE-15L

    This is the cab that we discussed a couple of days ago. Supposed to be a JBL 8 ohm speaker, but ended up being a Peavey BW 1501 DT 4 ohm. But after TB observations and comments, I decided to keep it. So here it is. :)

    Anybody know what JBL speaker was used in Crate BE-15L Cab from the mid 90's?

    One of these is advertised fairly near me. Owner knows next to nothing about it. I've found only a tidbit on line and it says they were made from 1994-96. 300 watts @ 8ohms with a JBL speaker. Would like to know what JBL was used. :)
