Its nice to see this place back again.

Rick
Welcome to the Depot fellow low-slinger.
Enjoy exploring the many possibilities of the MB-1 :banana-guitar:
Hey Rick, welcome to the depot, what cabs are you thinking of ?, bit tricky keeping it in stereo with bass, hey Peter, how do you do it, e.g. stereo tops (10"s or 12"s) and mono lows (15"s or 18"s) or sub ?

I keep it mono, and play without cabs from DI out direct to In-Ear system.
When I did use cabs I used a 2*10" cab on the full range output, and had a 1*18" on the low freq-out

I love my IEMs, I'll never own another 4x12

Ok so you'd take the MB1 full range out into one channel of B500 and the MB1 low freq out to the other B500 channel ? (and feed cabs accordingly)

That's the option I use. I feed the 2*10" with a full range signal to get the speakers to break-up quicker.
For a cleaner (and maybe more controlled, but who wants that >:D) signal send the high out to the small speakers, and the low out to the big guy. :banana-rock:
Thanks Peter, good advice.
Rick, hope this helps, let us know how you get on.
Cheers Richard

As I'm using an 18" speaker the crossover is set pretty low 150-200 Hz
Thanks will try that :thumb-up:
