Good afternoon, I was wondering if I could trouble you for some advice?

I have a Barefaced One10 that I purchased in 2016 that I love. I was running an EBS Reidmar Head through it which has sadly died this week. I'm just looking into getting a replacement head and was wondering if a TC Electronic BAM200 Ultra-Compact 200 Watt Bass Head would work through it? (https://www.andertons.co.uk/tc-electronic-bam-200-ultra-compact-200-watt-bass-head/).

I'm not much of an expert when it comes to Wattage and the Ohms of Heads and Cabs and wanted to check whether this Head would be safe to use and what sort out Output I could get from it? Thanks for your time, any advice would be much appreciated.

Best wishes

Alan

Hi Alan,

It'll be fine to use, not as powerful as the Reidmar, maybe 150W into the One10. No harm ordering it and sending it back if you don't like it!

Best regards,

The SMT sounds great and works great, cuts through easily and I can hear any small changes I make in my signal chain, just what I want.  Amazing speaker for upright bass.

Thanks for your input

I have two One10’s which i run with my Ashdown Mag600.

Very happy.

An Ashdown Mag 900 has recently come my way which would be nice to use on bigger gigs.

This has two separate outputs which will both run loads down to 4ohm.

Amp can’t be bi-amped.

Just checking its OK to use either a Two10S (on 4ohm) or another pair of One10’s (in parallel).

I appreciate that a Two10 is 2” deeper than a One10.

Thanks

Last year I bought a Four10 from you. I absolutely love it. But I was thinking about a 6x10. My question is can I add a Two10 to this rig? I have the 8 ohm cab now. I run either a GK Legacy 800 or a GK 1001RB. Both cabs are capable of 4ohms. Both are highly 800 watts at 4 ohm. The legacy can go to 2ohms.

Hi Matt,

Glad you're loving the Four10! Yes, you can add a Two10S. Switch it to 12 ohms to stack on the Four10 and have a 6x10CR rig with 4 ohm impedance and all six drivers sharing the power equally. And on its own you can switch it to 4 ohm to free up more amp headroom or keep it at 12 ohms to pull the power back to about 2/3 of the 8 ohm power rating.

Well…. I’m rarely lost for words, but…. The new 2x10 has landed and has joined my other two 2x10 cabs…. Well…

The difference between going from 4x10 to 6x10 is MASSIVE, I was not expecting that. I guess because the Mesa Boogie is now putting out 800 watts into 4 ohms that really helps too, but I WAS NOT EXPECTING such a monumental increase in power and volume. To be honest the 4x10 rig got a bit pushed to near its comfortable limit at some gigs but I can tell that even with our drummer trying to out hit Bonzo and our guitarist with his Marshall stack I will still be very much heard, and felt. Couldn’t be more happy.

25/11/24 - Reformer 112 - UK

I currently own the Reformer 1x12 and am just enquiring if it's possible to have another front panel made for my cab. I recently just purchased the Friedman Little Sister head and the covering on the front of it is called Silver Weave and I would like a replacement made to match the amp.

I have contacted Friedman amps and am waiting for a reply from them regarding purchasing some of this grill cloth, could you advise me if you stock this type of cloth? If not, and you do not stock the grill cloth and providing you could make the panel how much material would I need to purchase to cover the panel and what would the cost of this panel be?

I love the cab and it would be great if I could interchange the front panel depending on what amp I wanted to use. I'm currently using Victory Sheriff 25 and the cab has black and tan Mojotone grill cloth.

Your assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Keith,

Sorry, we don't make replacement grills for our cabs - they're the most labour intensive part of the process and we don't have the capacity to make any more than what's needed for new orders. I wouldn't recommend taking the grill on and off frequently, it's really not designed for that and I think you'll end up with parts getting worn/damaged. Hope the cab is sounding good!

Best regards,

Hello, I recently purchased a used One10, and I really enjoy it.

Am I correct in viewing the Activier as a clean pre & power amp capable of powering two One10 cabinets? Can I plug my passive bass directly into the Activier and gig with it? Also, the utilitarian minimalism of the Zero k7 prototype is so wonderful.

I'm tempted to put down a deposit, but I worry that the amp will become bigger or more complex. Will you post updates as you develop it? Thank you.

David

------------------------------------------

Hi David,

Yes, you can plug any bass straight into the Activier. It's like a zero EQ amp head that's built into a cab. The Zero k7 is getting closer to production. We won't be making it bigger or more complex - we have a more complex sister amp which has all the extra EQ that some bassists prefer. The reason for the Zero's name was "zero EQ" and we've already moved quite far from that with bass and treble shelving and the high pass filter, so we'll not be adding more! Glad you're enjoying your One10!

Best regards,

Alex

A few years ago a bought a Super Compact with 12" speaker.

I like to buy me a second one for the gigs am playing now. 

I am very satisfied with the sound and I think with two my bass will sound perfect. 

But any advice from you will be appreciated. What is the best price? 

Regards,

Fried Holtkamp

Hi Fried,

Glad you're pleased with your Super Compact. Adding a second one will give you a lot more output for bigger gigs. What amp will you be using? The only price is the price on our website - just pick the options you want!

Best regards,

Alex

Just to say, my Genz Benz Shuttle 9.2 Class-D amp, atop a stack of two One-10s, looks a pretty picture. And it stands the test of time on pub gigs here in Ireland.

I usually point one One10 towards the audience to get the juice of my amplification up close, the other One10 towards me as a kick-ass monitor, and the rest DI into the desk and over the PA, with some compression, and room eq if we are bothered haha...

I feel very lucky with my setup, if I'm honest. You guys are central to that experience, Barefaced...

Many thanks from Ireland,

Eanna
