Wanted: More bass!

[Excalibur]

I like the look of the second sub there, and not a bad price too. Would like to know others thoughts on this?

I found the appearance pleasing, and the price didn't upset me too much either! On paper the specs aren't at all bad, but as we all know, our ears should be the final arbiter.

Indeed! If it sound's too good to be true it probably is!!

what venue is this?
The reason I ask is because as you know, I have a function this year at one of the venues you do and it's a pretty big one which I have yet to visit. It would be good to know if it's one of them.

It would be easier for you to tell me the venue and I can tell you what you'll need in there.

While it is widely known that my knowledge of active systems is limited, and my love for them is smaller, these two appear to fit the specified criteria. Whether they're any good, I have no idea, and I apologise for this failing.

That one is the one I was looking at funnily enough!

At that price, yeah, but there is 6 days to go. Not sure if a 12" will go as low as a 15 or 18 either. I wouldn't normally be bothered but this is a large venue that needs some serious reinforcement.

Marmite? I know there are folk on here who rave about DB subs. I also know a couple of folk who are very unimpressed. It can be very subjective, this sound lark, can't it?

Indeed! If it sound's too good to be true it probably is!!

Ah. Point of order. I never said too good to be true, Thomann have a good reputation for no nonsense gear at keen prices. As a general rule, most folk ( probably not Shaun ) would be confident when ordering just about anything from Thomann.

I've since used Thomann again and I'm about to make another large(ish) purchase from them. However.....there are pitfalls with currency conversion when buying in the EU should you have to return items for a refund. All credit where credits due, Thomann came through in the end for me (albeit after many many calls), and as a result I still buy from them.

This isn't a large-ish purchase that I could help with is it?

I stand ( sit? ) corrected. Many thanks for the clarification. I remember at the time, you were not a happy little bunny.

If you can do me a good price on vertical trussing, four 1 metre lengths (for moving heads) Truss covers, truss transport bags and heavy base plates....then you just might be able to help, yes!

I wasn't happy at all.

They did resolve it though. At the end of the day I'm Scottish and Thomann (in most cases) are still the cheaper option for a lot of things, which is why I went back.
