Especially like those Diesel 15's. Something about Alembics through Mesa-Boogie cabs just sounds right. (I have searched high and low for a Diesel 210 to complete my setup...) This place ruint me! 🤣

I had 3 powerhouse cabs at one time. 1x15, which hardly got used, 4x12 used the most and a 2x10 which was my first. Great cabs that have a real punchy tone.
The sound of Alembic is medicine for the soul!

From where in the chain is the direct signal coming?

This is: DS-5R - Lehle P split Stereo - Lexicon MX400 - Radial JDI   (very light compression from the Lexicon)

And Shure SM57 in front of upper cab, Mesa gets signal from the thru out of the JDI.

:-) Note: this is also the brightest setting of the bass, somehow the CVQ's are both maxed out. (with both filters full open) Normally I have CVQ's set at about 1/4 :-)
