I gotta think that speakers sounding bad a volume has gotta be somewhat rare, but I will try cranking up the ET65s and see how they really do when you push them. I am just used to speakers always sounding better when you give them more volume, with some changing more than others.

$1800 instant savings!!!! What a deal and I hear it comes with a gym membership!

I want speakers which sound great a low volumes and great a high volumes. I have more run into speakers like the emeinence ms12 that sounded like a muddy mess at low volumes and really came alive when you got them working. By comparison the Mesa custom 90 changes very little as you push it and...

Which is a bit strange given the demand for cabs and in particular 412s is low and its a buyer's market for music gear. I get that new prices on cabs have gone up, so maybe that is the cause, but still demand is low. I am looking for a Marshall 1960A or B and seeing them listed for around $200...

Long shot, but are any of the cabs still left?

It will be interesting for sure. I just don't want to see another interview with Dave talking about Metallica.

On my Strobostomp 2, I ended up removing the 1 meg antipop resistor as this was giving me some tone suck with it in the chain. Not sure if the original SS has this resistor as well, but if it does and you notice tone suck, then you know why. You can use a meter and if you measure 1megohms from...

I have a Peterson SS2 on my small board, a Turbo tuner ST300 mini on my big board, and a Peterson SS HD on my just for kicks board. for pure tuning, I like the Turbo tuner the best. For ergonomics I like the top jacks on the SS2. and I like the optional buffer on the SS HD

I have yet to meet a PRS owner that owns just one. When I see someone with a PRS, I ask how many PRS guitars they have, its always at least 2. Also many act like this around their PRS too.

It seems UMG is going after $ anyway they can. Just sad, but it shows you the weight of these former music industry giants.

Was just going to post a thread asking. I am using Reaper, but my daughter is wanting to get into recording So I am seeing that Audacity, or Abelton Lite might be the best option for her. She has a windows machine with a fosusrite scarlet USB audio interface. It was hard for me to tell if...

I hope you get well soon, broken rids are very painful. I went over the handle bars on my mountain bike 2 years ago and broke both bones in my left arm, got a plate on the ulna bone. Took some time, but I am playing guitar like the accident never happened. I had my seat too high.

Love the purple color, but the price gives me heartburn.

I like to run the output master about 6 and control the volume with the lead master. If you use the half power mode, plan to redial in the amp.

I am going to have to start looking for some 412 cabs that I don't need, but want, lol
