This is as small as I go for a backup to the tube amps. All stuffed into a shallow rack case, about 25 pounds.

My name is LilRay so I clicked into the LilRacks thread but I didn't realize there wasn't a LilPoint
God Bless, Ray
OK, here's the point...... It's hard to tell from the picture, but it's a 10.5" deep rack case with the new Crown light power amp which weighs 8.5 lbs. and can power 4 810 cabs (Not that I use 4 810's.) Not only is it smaller than the previous backup in a full size rack, it dropped almost 40 lbs.
Why do I want a 25 lb. rack when I'm hauling a 140 lb. cab? It's a backup rack.

No messing around for Gord! Succinct and straight to the point! You can see this man keeps abreast of all the current threads!

I'm using a six-space rack at the moment, but two spaces are empty, and one is just a power conditioner. I could easily shave it down to three spaces, or even two if I wanted to run my Peavey IPR 1600 off of my VT pedal rather than my Ashly preamp.

You mean my wife? Not for sale.
It's called humor, not a bum stick....![]()
