Re: Hello and bass guitar stack questions :)

I agree completely. My trouble is, our drummer hammers extremely hard, all the time. I would love to get the drummer to soften up but getting drummers to do anything you want seems impossible. Always seems like the weak link. We're lucky if he shows up, let alone finding anyone else. There's lots o...

Re: Hello and bass guitar stack questions :)

most sound guys at shows I've played don't seem to prioritize micing up or even DIing the bass. We don't even get a sound check so it's nice to know I'm at least set on my own. :fingers: Probably because most bass players are so loud that adding it to the PA in a small room isn't worth the trouble....

Re: Hello and bass guitar stack questions :)

Pair of Jack 12's. Scalable, easy tote. Or an Omni full range, comparable in size to what you have now. +1. There's no sense making your rig overly complicated. Build 2 Jack 1x12s and 1 Jack 2x12. Or 4 Jack 12 Lights. Loaded with the 3012HO, and let them scream for you! For most medium/small venues...

That is true bi-amping. It needs to be able to crossover in the vicinity of 100Hz.
Thanks Bill, you're a huge help! :cowboy:

Re: Hello and bass guitar stack questions :)

s there a top/sub combo where the top would be adequate on it's own for small gigs, like possibly a J12/Sub combo? You could do that. It would be best, though, with a bi-amp rig.

Re: Hello and bass guitar stack questions :)

Standard racks are 20 inches wide. So are the airhead versions of our cabs. A separate top/sub is fine if you always use them together, but it's not a scaleable rig, you can't leave one piece at home when you don't need the output. Ahh thank you, the specs for my Gator case must be including the wh...

Pair of Jack 12's. Scalable, easy tote. Or an Omni full range, comparable in size to what you have now. That's my thought too :) . This SVT 410 is a pain up and down stairs. As an alternative, for an easier build, you could do an OmniTop12 and a Titan39 or Titan48 in the same width. You would never...

Hello and bass guitar stack questions :)

Hello, I'm a bass guitarist from Southern California! :D Been reading up about BFM designs and I'm very impressed, not to mention it looks like fun. I would like to build a bass guitar stack for performance on stage. My current set up is a solid state class D Crown XLS 1000 power amp (bridged mono a...
