Svt 3 gain control

a few weeks ago I posted a thread, (can't seem to find it now) about my new svt3 not being loud enough on stage. I then used the preamp and a power amp and got better results. Some of you told me to avoid looking at the gain led and use my ears. I tried that, got a ton more volume with just the head. Just want to thank all who contributed their input. Rig sounds great now!
 
I also figured out a way to get the cabinet up off the floor a little to be able to hear it better maybe. About 1 foot higher now. I had an old peavey combo amp sitting around, blown head and speaker. Removed the electronics, and it sits great under my bass cabinet now. Gonna give it a try.
