Congrats on the new rig. Turn it up!:rockon:
The only problem with the Avatar 2x12 is that it is so brutally heavy! Great looking cabs though for sure. I have never heard them but they get great reviews from most bass players. One day I will have to drive down to Couer d'Alene, ID and try them out.Congratulations! Nice first rig. If you are looking down the road for another cab, Avatar's 2x12 would be great under that 2x10.
Brutally heavy?? Avatar stopped using Delta's, and only uses neo speakers now. I can 1-hand the cabinet no problem.The only problem with the Avatar 2x12 is that it is so brutally heavy!

Well that sounds just great and I will look forward to it too. I will go out and buy a bunch of 649 ticket in the morning too. With my luck I will get hit by big tennis ball hailstone that fell near us last night.Maybe you will win one this month, right here.
It's allways fun when nobody is home. I have my 810 cab in my living room and thats the only time I play it.:rockon2:My landlord & landlady were out of the house this weekend... so I got to turn my rig upIt was awesome... especially standing/sitting in front of it. Definitely eardrum bursting.
Ahhhh, you're hitting the resonant frequency of some of the stuff in your house - when I was still living with my parents, if I hit a B Flat, every picture in the basement room I used for practice would shake - never put it up loud enough for one to fall thoughMmm... turning up an 810 would be fun... don't know how the house would take it though... I swear, when I had the volume on my bass up past a certain point, on some notes, I would hear other stuff in the house ring out... maybe it was just too much noise into my ears...
Nice. I think my problem is the D *laughs* - everything was awesome until I played the D then I got kind of worried about whether the sound came from the amp or whatever. Maybe my landlord/landlady have too much stuffAhhhh, you're hitting the resonant frequency of some of the stuff in your house - when I was still living with my parents, if I hit a B Flat, every picture in the basement room I used for practice would shake - never put it up loud enough for one to fall though![]()
man thats some beautiful carpet.I'm so excited... this is my first bass rig! (I just had to share)
SX P/J --> Ampeg B2R --> Avatar B210
And a Korg pedal tuner that I occasionally even remember to use!
The Ampeg B2R is quieter than I expected it to be (not sure if it can hang with guitarists & drummers without a second cab) and I have come to the conclusion that playing my guitar through this rig isn't really going to work... it works but it just sounds... wrong. And this is coming from someone whose guitar "rig" (currently) consists of a Fender Frontman 15G.
.... and the wallpaper is pretty nice too. It complements the carpet design rather well in the overall concept of the theme of Jane's decor. Well done!man thats some beautiful carpet.
Yep; The strange things that happen with a new bass amp. I'm pretty used to the rattling they can do, crooked pictures, and setting off the truck alarm. Anway, I was giving it a workout when I first got it and kept hearing noises, crashes, bangs, thuds.Nice.

It's not my house, actually... I'm on a work term and I'm renting a room - thats the basement living room and it's a gorgeous house. My apartment (in Waterloo) is a lot more Spartan... you know, white walls and solid colour beige carpets. Works for me..... and the wallpaper is pretty nice too. It complements the carpet design rather well in the overall concept of the theme of Jane's decor. Well done!
That's awesome. LOL. I haven't knocked anything off the walls yet... yet! I had the whole house to myself all last week (and I'll have it to myself this long weekend too) and i decided to run my ipod through my amp/speakers. I'm sure it's not great for it, but I was curious. Obviously, there was awesome bass - wayy better than computer speakers! Oh yeah, and I was afraid my neighbours would come knocking... it wasn't that loud, but it's not a really big house and sounds tend to echo in it.Yep; The strange things that happen with a new bass amp.

And oh, I'm so embarrased by the moldy silicone, but it's fixed now!
