    If I were wanting a 5150/6505 but....

    without that mid-range honk that's kinda grating on my ears which amps should I be looking at? PS. I need another amp like I need a hole in the head. LOL!

    The good ole days when things made sense.

    I was looking up some info and reading though old RT post from 10-15 years ago. Laughing (to keep from crying) about how things have changed. Back then... Just grab a Mk III and if you don't like it throw it in the trash. They're cheap so you won't be out that much. Now... I found a Mk III...

    I did it again - Incoming NAD: SonicTone BA-300

    https://www.sonictoneamps.com/amplifiers/ba-series/ba-300 Teaser to @BeZo and @Floyd Eye :D I posted in my Loyalist thread that Nick @ SonicTone finished up the prototype and officially launched his 300 watt bass amp. The model name is BA-300. I was going to wait 'til the end of the year...

    I did a thing. NAD Fender Machete

    This amp caught my eye a few years back but was put on the backburner since there were none for sale. It's one that people seem to forget about and doesn't come up for sale overly often. One popped up on GC's website about 3-4 months back. I was behaving myself and resisting the urge to buy...

    Wall voltage and effects on tone

    There's been times when all my amps are sounding excellent and other's where none of the settings have changed and things just sound off. A few months ago I got this device that monitors home voltage. I've noticed that it can swing anywhere from as low as 114V to as high as 125V. I know that...

    Proof the earth is flat

    The other thread is filled with examples and evidence of globe earth with our resident flat earthers refuting those claims and/or asking for more proof. What I don’t see from them is any evidence or attempt to explain how observations or math fits the flat earth model. Here’s the opportunity to...

    Bass guys, show off your rig

    I know there are a few of you out there. What kind of bass rig are you playing through? My amp setup is: Mesa Titan V12 through GK Neo 412 Crate BV 300 & preamps into loop through Ashdown RM610 Ashen Miley, no dedicated cab ignore the Line 6 in the pic. Main basses are: Built by me...

    Question: Fryette Power Station & speaker power handling

    Not that I'm in this situation, but the thought just occurred to me and I haven't come across anything that addresses it. Do you take speaker power handling into account when using the power station to attenuate or boost an amp? For instance if you have a 5 watt amp with a 15 watt speaker...

    What the heck is this cab?

    I was looking a 412 cab design/dimensions and came across this thing; Old Dog X cab. Never seen or heard of it before. Anyone know anything about it? https://dbinstrumentamp.com/products/the-x-cab-from-old-dog-products/

    Immigrant labor. Some people think all they're good for is cleaning toilets

    Creating this thread to keep Dan's idiotic ramblings from derailing another. Go over to the globe earth grifting thread if you want to read the full transcript. For brevity, let's recap from that thread. Dan said somethign stupid about eveyone here hating on brown people, gays, women &...

    Using AI to steal someone's voice

    We've all seen/heard some of the fake AI videos using Trump's, Obama's, or Biden's voice in a funny skit or whatever. I just came across a video of a random Youtuber showing another channel used AI to steal his voice and make their own videos. They guy's whos voice was stolen is just a...

    I want some new speakers for my 412

    I have an Egnater Armageddon 412 that I want new speakers for. It's currently loaded with Elite 100 (G12K-100) on the bottom and WGS Retro 30's on the top. This combo works fine, but it just isn't doing it for me anymore. The WGS speakers lose definition at anything more than medium volume...

    Is congress doing anything other than sitting on their ass???

    I was asking myself this the other week. Here we have Trump signing executive order after executive order getting shit done. But those are only going to last for so long. We need congress to start passing bills to make these changes permanent. I haven't heard anything about things they're...

    Jake Tapper; what a complete pile of human garbage

    For how long did we hear him and others go on and on about how sharp Biden is. Paraphrasing one of his quotes "F you if you can't handle the truth. This is the best version of Biden ever." Now it's oh we didn't know, the White House was lying to us. I just found out recently while writing my...

    Suggestion for alternate value for cap

    Hopefully I'll be getting back to my Matamp GT120 clone build soon. When I was first ordering parts I couldn't find a good source for the polystyrene caps on the Bass-Boost knob. I was going to sub polypropylene, but stumbled across some polystyrene yesterday. The place has all the exact...

    Bought myself a new work shed

    Not sure if this is more appropriate here or in OTC since it's semi gear related. I put it here for now, but will let mods decide where it ultimately belongs. My old small tin storage shed was on its last leg and it was time to get a new one. I had the idea to get a nice sized shed and make...

    You know Democrats have lost the plot when they're kicking John Fetterman out

    Check out this hit piece MSDNC ran on Fetterman. I think it's hilarious they're trying to claim he'd becoming a Republican. No, not really. He just seems tired of all the woke stuff and is trying to interject some common sense. But in true party fashion, the Democrats are eating their own...

    Noise gate patch cable

    Thought this was interesting and may have to try it. Basically the dude inserted 2 diodes on the hot wire of a patch cable and it reduces high gain preamp hum/noise. The one caveat is it introduces a little crossover distortion from the diodes. That doesn't seem to be noticeable with crunch &...

    Weekly Glenn Fricker is a goober thread

    Not gonna post the video to give him extra clicks. You can look it up yourself if you really want to. I will bitch about how dumb as usual he's being. Every so often one of his vids comes across my feed and I'll click on it for a good laugh. This week he reviews the Magnatone Slash Signature...
