Members bassplayer7770 Posted August 3, 2005 Members Share Posted August 3, 2005 Like 15s much? I'm sure it sounds great for rehearsals! I use my crappy Peavey Basic 60 combo for one of my bands, and it looks like I'll be using my Eden head with one of my cabs for my other band when we start rehearsing again (with a new lineup).

Members conk97 Posted August 3, 2005 Author Members Share Posted August 3, 2005 yeah 15s seem to sound really cool. From the various amps i have used 15s have always sounded better. I dont like 4x10 cause i have heard they arent that good and when i played a GK it sounded like {censored} PS: we might be doing some live recording at band practice soon so u will get to hear how i sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet that Peavey/Ashdown combo sounds pretty phat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members der oxenrig Posted August 4, 2005 Members Share Posted August 4, 2005 Peavey cabs rock. Even their 10 speakers don't suck like certain other 10s do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinal Posted August 4, 2005 Members Share Posted August 4, 2005 Originally posted by conk97 ..ontop of this peavey 1x15 (it says its 700watts on the site I found the pic) That's 700w peak, I think they're rated for about 350-400w continuous. Still, lots of beef there. The secret about that cabinet is it's not a *compact* 15 like so many companies build. The bigger cabinet is tuned lower, and so you get LOTS of well controlled lows, none of the weird "WOOOMPH" you hear from a cabinet operating below it's tuned range. A little bulky, but what you trade in portability, is more than made up by the performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to the fact that it stays at the practice room means that portablity isnt a factor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Narcosynthesis Posted August 5, 2005 Members Share Posted August 5, 2005 i have been looking at ashdown for a bass amp (a 'first' one, currently using a guitar amp) and the MAG series looks awesome i was playing with the same combo in a shop here and it sounded excellent, so the head version (MAG300H) and a cab sounds like a great way to go David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
