Holy moly!  That looks mean.  Wow.
 
Thanks for the update!  My birthday is April 13, so that is nice for the calibration.

I forgot we were waiting for the goldplated hardware . It's back and we've got it loaded. Now we just need the guts, and calibration:

heh heh heh....that guy knows exactly what he's doing to you bro, look at that mischevous grin.
 
I should upload the early pics from our visit, too, eh?

petehnek

Thanks guys, I am totally psyched.  
 
Yeah Meli, go ahead.  And you're right, James there is being evil!  
 
Soon, I will have the power....well, I will after I figure out a good rig to play it through.

That's an easy one... Glockenklang!

petehnek

Glockenlang?  Have to look into that.  I notice lots of people using the QSC stuff as a power amp and I want the stereo pre-amp.  What does the 5 pin cable plug into?  For cabs I've got 2 Ampeg 4x10s...

bassjigga

I believe the 5 pin cable plugs into your external power supply, which would then plug into the amp of your choosing.  
 
Anyway, I love Glockenklang. They are high end German made amps/cabs. Very pure sounding - a perfect compliment for Alembics because they will let you hear exactly how the bass sounds.
