Here is my amp. Don't have a shot of the cabs though...

Is that a home made mount for the Sure's wireless antenna's? I have never seen something like that, but it seems pretty cool. If you bought it pre-made, can you tell me where you got it?

Thanks, Tom.
 
My current rig, except I use an Eden Navigator right now instead of the Sansamp.

A rig I used for quite a while- an SM 900 and Goliath 2

Ampeg SVP, QSC and SWR Goliath SR. I still have the SR

Here's my home setup. LA10+BOD+PC2r (for accompaniment with B-in-B on the computer). If I need them Rane HP amp+Beyer Headphones. Oh, and I put a Variax 700 Bass through these. I'm spoiled for choice.


That seems like a very nice rig...
How do you use your BOD?? How do you connect it to your SWR LA?? Do you like the sound of it (I suppose you do :) )?

Thanks.

Bye.
 
Thanks. It's pretty inexpensive as well (except for the Kurzweil). I just connect the LA10 to the LineOut on the back of the BOD. I think the sound is just fine, and about the right level of tweakability (I have the BOD, not BOD XT, so I can 'dial in' the compressor, amp and cab settings).

I don't do anything fancy at all, and I don't get pickaay about a particular tone. Rather this setup allows me to explore the impact of various basses, types of amps, and so forth on music. If I really get hooked on a particular tone or setup, then I guess I can buy the real thing (it hasn't happened yet, and may not at all ... I like Line 6 products).

The part I like best is the PC2r / BinB. This gives me a very nice, rich flexible 'drum machine' for my 'groove training' :-))
 
Here is my stuff. I just recently got the Avatar cab, I felt bad because when the cab arrived the first thing I did was take it out, look it over, and then started drilling holes in the bottom for the casters. Then the next day I took the entire cab apart, built a 4th order crossover for the horn, did some soldering on the control plate and drilled more holes to mount it inside. I put Eminence Deltalite 2510's in the 350watt Fender combo after I blew one of the original speakers. If anyone's interested click the Nevr Deadr Society link in my sig and listen to the song Emactiated to hear the Fender combo and an American Deluxe P-bass in action.

was the Avatar really that bad? That's the cab I cant wait to get! I'm not really a tweeter guy any way. You kept the speakers in the avatar right? Thanks!

With the stock 6 dB/octave crossover, the Foster horn in Avatar cabinets can be a bit harsh. The 4th order TalkBass mod seems to smooth it out a bit. If you keep it turned down, you'll probably be fine with leaving it the way it is. My two B210s are stock and sound fine...

The Avatar cab in stock-form wasnt bad at all. I used it at a 4-hour practice before the crossover and it sounded fine, but you could tell when the horn was playing. After I put the crossover in it took me like 5 minutes to figure out if the horn was even working because the transition between the speakers and the tweeter is so smooth. I now have a cab comparable to more "highend" cabs for only $370 total. Its well worth the price.
