Does anyone have a scan of the Superfilter manual? It looks like there used to be a link to one in the FAQ section which now appears to be MIA.
Thanks!

Have fun with that superfilter Stephen, and be nice to your speakers as that thing can provide your speakers with some seriously heavy bottom end!!! :-) I hardly use mine in anything more than subtle ways but if I'm on a reggae gig at a festival with a good strong high wattage 8x10 on the back line then....Booooom Party Time!!!!

Thanks Jazzy!
Just back from a long summer vacation. Only have had a chance to use the Superfilter for one gig so far and it performed admirably. I found the band-pass filter to be a big help in bringing out a bit of bite in the upper mid-range. I used the low-pass filter to beef up the low end a bit but my Series bass already has a strong bottom end, especially since mine is an old one with the neck pickup located closer to the neck, so I used a very conservative gain setting. Lots of ways to patch it into my rig and various preamps so I am looking forward to experimenting more. I think it is going to be a particularly good thing to use with my F2-B. Last gig I patched it into my Eden Navigator effects loop in mono and left all the EQ on the amp flat but I tend to use little to no EQ anyway.
Already got the sense that subtle is the way to go with the Superfilter. I always gig with at least one 15" JBL cabinet as part of my backline and it handles low end a lot better than my 10" speakers. Since I mix cabinets I am also going to try running the filters in stereo at some point so I can tweak each cab separately.
