Genzler Amplification Club

In a full volume situation, my Mesa works its way to the back of the cab. I’ll be looking for a solution.

edit: This is only when running both cabs stacked / wide open.

yeah - it’s not a function of the cab though they are thoroughly braced. More to do with the rubber used in the genzler Magellan. It is a softer material than many amp makers use...

mayve that’s your solution - just replace the feet with something gummier ...

No, the cabs are solid. I think one of the forum users sell fancy amp feet/pads. Sorbothane......or something, might give that a go.

[QUOTE = "JP Vincx, posta: 24186426, tag: 342150"] Végül ma basszusgitár álmom valóra vált.
Valóban el kell kezdenie játszani úgy, ahogy megérdemlem : D
Van egy szál vagy link itt a Magellan 800 erősítő beállításairól?
Egészségére!

Flat (no pre shape filtering), for the purist who only wants to hear his instrument without any additional coloring from EQ.
Slap tones, from classic to modern. This is Contour A, range 9:00 and above.
Traditional pre shape curves (found to one degree or another in many of the popular preamps and amps over the last 50 years). This is Contour A, range 1:00 and below.
Vintage tones, as made popular by the amp and cabinet designs originally produced in the ‘60s and ‘70s. This is the beauty of Contour B.

Hey awesome!!! There's a milestone. @Discount Saint --- thank you so much for keeping this so organized and initiating this way back when.

And to all official members (and unofficial as well), I can't thank you enough for your support in this "new" endeavor and for having the faith to jump in and check out our gear. I know some of you have purchased "sight unseen" so to speak and I take that as a huge responsibility that our products deliver what we say they do. That is our personal commitment.

Thank you.

It has been an honour and a pleasure to organize this group! Your gear has never let me down, nor have you.
 
Thank you for adding me to the club. I guess I better post a picture.

Can you speak to your experience about how the MG-800 sits on top of the slant of these 2 cabs together. I've had this question asked several times and you seem to have personal experience on how secure it is on top.
I know other amps might be different but maybe you can share your thoughts.

I did a short video using 2 Bass Array SLT cabs showing with even extreme movement, the Magellan 800 never moves. I have played many live shows with various Bass Array cabs and the SLT cabs with great results. I never have to worry about the amp slipping. It sits securely even when using 2 SLT cabs. Such as the BA210-3 and BA15-3 SLTs used in the video!!

Yup! I stack 2 SLT’s and my M800 doesn’t walk at all!
 
The more I play my 4X10 the more I love the transition between the 10’s and the 3’s. Can do the glassy snap thing if you boost the highs but with my MG 800 set flat has such a full and robust sound. Cuts through so good live! For the handful of gigs I’ve got to use it on (dang COVID-19) it has sounded great just set flat/no contour. On a couple of our songs I switch over to the drive channel and it gives the tone a nice bit of edge that works out great. The 4X10 is probably the most balanced cab I have played through. YMMV.....
