There is a video but that won't be hitting the internet anytime. I'm doing a gig next week with my own NotStrictlyJazz Quartet which will be within my comfort zone so it will be a better recording.
The sound of Alembic is medicine for the soul!

Nice basses, that's quite the wall of sound you have there!

Thank You. The Basses are the Best there are. Obviously! The Wall of sound can actually be bigger. Didn't need anymore for this event. But the sound is incredible!!! I designed and built the 1X15 cabinets and replaced all the drivers in the Eden 4X10 cabinets. Used all Beyma Drivers. Best sounding Rig I ever heard!!! Took me a while to build one capable of reproducing the full range of an Alembic Bass. This system does it great. Full 20-20KHZ response. And with all that power it is incredibly clear. Can be expanded with more cabinets and up to 15000 Watts! Haven't needed to do that yet though. This set up does the Job!!!

The guitarist in my new band looked a bit shocked when I told him my fender pre / QSC power set up could run at 2400 watts. I reckon his head would explode if I turned up with your rig Willie. :-)

This system scares everybody when they first see it. They think it's all about volume and that I'll overpower everyone. They don't understand that it is about TONE! And they don't understand why a Bass needs a Rig with such a wide frequency response. But they don't understand the capabilities of an Alembic Bass and what it takes to faithfully reproduce it's sound until they hear it. But Yes, of course I can get that tone at a very high volume level and still be crystal clear. The 10 Mid Bass drivers and Super Tweeters Really helped with the mid's and highs being so clear. The 15G40 15 Absolutely Thunders down to the lowest notes of my 5 string! And all of that POWER Makes Really Helps Too
