Are you still using that old PV Megabass head and 1820 cabinet ( :puke: )   :razz:     :biggrin:    There are some potent and light bass amps being made and using combos and cabinets with Neo magnet speakers also do away with a lot of weight.

It's OK I know you're a bass player but it really is alright to go ahead and move into the 21st century.      :razz:       :biggrin:

Oh he!! no, lol! My back couldn't take moving that 1820! I have a Peavey 15" and a 210HT. I still use the Megabass, but just for power. I'm hoping someone will create a 1u power amp that's at least 200 watts per side that I can replace it with.
On the front-end I have a Line 6 Basspod XT Pro. It and the Megabass are in a flight case, so it's still killing my back to move my rig.

The nice thing about the 210HT is that it's freq response is down to 30 hz (my low open B is 31 hz), so I use it by itself for small venues.

Sorry to hear about your guitars. "Me" filled me in.

I'll check those out, thanks. I really like the sounds I am getting, but I think most of that is due to the front-end processing.
What I mostly need now is lightweight, powerful amplification (2-channel), and lightweight cabinets with enough clean low end.
The 1-15 and 2-10 cabinets have given me a lot of flexibility. I still prefer to bi-amp for large venues where I will be cranked up pretty loud, but as I said, the 210HT is clean an punchy down to 30 hz.

I also a a 60-watt Fender practice amp that was a waste of money. Good sound, but clips at 1/2 volume! With NO preamping or processing, I might add.
