Amp(s) (home + yes i still need another amp
)
- Artisan AX-910
- Pioneer SX450
- Eltax AVR-200
the pioneer is loud but at the mo hardly used, the eltax is good but its also home audio and does 5.1 but i use it in 2.0 mode. The Artisan is simple and good, like cambridge audios but could be more powerful, the TDL's its connected to as beasts.
Speakers: (home)
- 2x TDL Nucleus KV1
- DX50 (5 surround)
- 2x Unbranded custom built (big big sound)
- 2x Acoustic Studio monitors (big sound)
- TOA amp/speaker combo
- Celestion Seperate active base box
The TDLs are lovely perfect sound as is the acoustics and the custom made jobs, the DX50s are decent but dont match up to the TDLs. the toa and cestion add the extra fill to the sound.
Decks
- 2x Stanton STR8-150
excellent torgue and features, heavy though which is good for when your playing in a soundsystem as they wont skip but hard work to move about all the time like i do.
Mixer
- Pioneer DJM600
good mixer and standard in many clubs, has a load of good features, wouldnt mind also haveing a reggae preamp as a mixer though
CD (recordable)
- Tascam CDRW 750
essencial for recording to cd and playing cds, useful gadget.
Tape
- Denon tape player (for those useful conversions to cd)
- Sharp tape player
good to have two to replicate tapes when it happens..
Amp (out)
- Opus sound 3000w RMS amp (down to 2ohm)
Amp (out/shared)
- C Audio 2000w Rms
- 3x OHM FL 1400w RMS each unit
- SA-400 Mosfet Amp
- Studiomaster mosfet 1000 (1000w rms - 2x 500)
- Gemini 1600w rms
- Turner (old skool) amp 340w rms per chan
few classic amps on the list, their all good, the opus is my favourite as i know it pretty well, the others im still learning the ins and outs of, powerful thing too. The few mosfets are great for the tops and mids giving a really rough feel to the sound.
Speakers (out)
- Monkey sound custom cab bass bins (double front loaded 800w rms precision device loaded per cab)
Speakers (out/shared)
- 2x unbranded top (tweeters)
- 4x mid (cant remember the models, 2 need some work on)
- 1x additional bassbin, loaded with 2x 400w eminence (i know, eminence
(( i didnt load them!)
my own built speakers that i work on are the monkey sound ones, only top quality stuff built into these, when i sell enough i'll be able to afford myself to keep some more.
the tweeters are old as can be but good, mids are standard and need some work on their connectors.
Other usefuls:
- DBX 120XP Subharmonic Synth
- KAM KEQ152 Graphic EQ (2 chan)
- Roland SDE3000 Delay
- JTS siren box (forgot its name)
- Behringer Feedback destroyer pro
- Moth RCM PRO record cleaning gadget
- Gemini Crossover (cant be bothered to go find the model)
- too many rackmounts and flight cases to remember..
i'll leave explaining these, any questions on them feel free to ask.
I need:
- Delta labs effectron 3 delay if anyone has one.
- a limiter, prob get a dbx one in the next few weeks.
- full size mixing desk badly! (any suggestions? Mighty?)
Where i live i can probably turn the house stuff to about 1 on the volume level, heh. gives a good sound though.
I have one set of the speakers in this room doing stereo with the others EQ'd doing stereo also, with a small bit of effort they could all go through the EQ.
Its good not having them all through it though, so you have the 'normal' sound aswell as the tweaked sound it gives it additional 'depth'
Sitting here trying to study so this gave me a bit of a reason to play with the system so i went through a few things i probably didnt need to, plus theres a load of stuff thats not here at the moment but kept somewhere else.
On another note, i have my pc linked up through it to play tunes from here on there, but am yet to get around to sending the sound back into the pc.
managed to electricute myself on the light while typing this, ouch!. Will reply to your msg soon mighty..
-- what sort of hi-fi setups do people here use? Which turntables, amps and speakers do you prefer?
