New cab day :D

Invalid Link Removed

Two Genz-Benz FCS-410T.. very impressed with sound.. reasonably light to boot!


Just need to try and fill the 6U rack.. going to ditch the line6 floor pod and replace it with a 1u preamp along with a 1u power conditoner and maybe a little tray for cables? :)
 
My thoughts if I may:

Tray/drawers are just a burden in a rack. I have two 2U drawers that cam out of the rack faster than they went in!

If you allow for a 2U pre you'll have many more choices.

Power "conditioners" are a waste of space unless you need one for mains distribution. They offer no more "protection" than a simple filtering power bar.

I have found that anything over a 4U case as awkward to carry with one hand. I standardized on 4U cases.
 
6U case was free so I can't complain... The main reason I'm going for the power distributor is to light up whatever is underneath it.. and it also means I only need one mains plug for everything inside!

I haven't really seen any 2U preamps that I can afford though! I don't mind having blank spaces in the rack.. might even get a rack tuner if I can find a nice one
