Excellent! Did you go with the VTBP-201 or the HBP-1?

Let’s say that this particular rig is for my Mid Life Crisis. While other guys in Mid Life may go out and buy a sports car, or a Harley, I chose to put together a ridiculous amp.

Disturbing fact: I'm 63 and I've been in my mid-life crisis for about the past 30 years or so.

Why have so much gear? Answer: because we can!

Congratulations Arthur, I know you've been looking forward to this!

Looks legit!

I have this same cab and it sounds fantastic. I've used it with a few heads and they all sounded their best coming through this cab. Finally got my hands on an M9 Carbine and I'm in hog heaven. And yes the mobility is great for such a big cab. Enjoy!View attachment 3648383

Wow! That setup can punch holes in a wall! Excellent stuff! One of the guys at the music store uses an M9 Carbine and a PH610. He also has a PH215 that he occasionally pairs along with his PH610.

Killer!!!!

I’ve been using an HBP-1 for the last 10+ years. I LOVE the Demeter tone.

Congrats!

A tad envious but mostly inspired as one in mid- midlife

Enjoy. Would love pics of the entire rig as available.

I’m pretty certain you’re going to love it. IMO the VTBP-201 and the VTBP-201S preamps are amongst the very finest in bass preamps.

I have an earlier rear ported version that slams. Good choice.

Fellow PH610 Tonehammer 500 user here. I have the traditional powerhouse cabinet. It's a beast for sure.

I live in Western New York, I thought it was a small earthquake. Turn it down.
