Title: F 1X & F 2B
Post by: thumbsup on March 18, 2011, 07:56:52 PM

I just got this F 1X. I plan to use it with my Crown 2000 amp. I currently am using a F 2B. I run 2 cabs (1-15 & 4-10) full range and really just got the F 1X for the line out.  
Can the F 2B be useful in anyway in conjunction with the F 1X ?

Actually , I was recently experimenting  with  the signal path as such; with Series I Bass.
DS5-R   Stereo to SF-2  Stereo to F-2B to  Yamaha P2200 power amp to I/18 Gauss & 2x10 EV Full range
IN addition I sent the mono out from the F-2B to the F1-X and sent a Bi-Amped output to a Crest FA9 power amp  to 4x10 EV & 2x10EV .  
The result was quite a large sound with the potential to overdrive the F-1X slightly if desired.  
     
I like to experiment !

Hi Peter  ,LOL ___ Thanks for your acknowledgment !   Well sometimes I like ultimate versatility and control  and  connectivity and sometimes I might just like a simple signal path with a non Series Bass.  I tend to rarely have just one solution to my equipment whims. I usually don't know what I will use till I am in the moment doing it but I like to experiment with the Sonic Colors before I swim into the musical mix doing it, a Fish needs to know where the Bottom is .
