Just my luck

[mark RD]

When I bought my refractor I had a dodgy controller with it As it took me a while to get to find this out as I thought it better to get used to a GEM without the electrics first then when I tyred out the motor system after about a month the problem arisen. Well I had to wait 2 and a half months for a shipment from china to arrive and for my new controller to arrive, and guess what? Its a nice clear night :shock: what wrong you might think ??? NO CABLES WITH THE CONTROLLER so I still can not use it. :)

Oh no Mark, I sense your frustration.... :? Have you contacted the supplier?

Just sent them an email, Hope for a reply tomorrow. The cables are like a modem cable but with the modem plug on both ends.

Well my bass amp is about 300watts power consuption So I would think it would run it for a while ( once its been turned into 240V )

Get some vibration pads for the scope if you're playing base at the same time

It would take more then vibration pads, On one jam night in the local My amp shook the pavement 15 foot outside the pub, bit like a mini earthquake

307 watts 600w peak and the bass cab will handle 800watts RMS

My nabours love me really

You feel a bass, you don't hear it, if you turn it up loud enough

That can depend on alot of things like size of room settings on a bass amp and even style of playing.

You feel all frequency's ( within your hearing capability's ) as its the way your ears work.

Put enough umph into it, so they feel it in the gut, the hearing doesn't count after that
