Holy moly!  That looks mean.  Wow.
 
Thanks for the update!  My birthday is April 13, so that is nice for the calibration.

I forgot we were waiting for the goldplated hardware . It's back and we've got it loaded. Now we just need the guts, and calibration:

Glockenlang?  Have to look into that.  I notice lots of people using the QSC stuff as a power amp and I want the stereo pre-amp.  What does the 5 pin cable plug into?  For cabs I've got 2 Ampeg 4x10s...

I believe the 5 pin cable plugs into your external power supply, which would then plug into the amp of your choosing.  
 
Anyway, I love Glockenklang. They are high end German made amps/cabs. Very pure sounding - a perfect compliment for Alembics because they will let you hear exactly how the bass sounds.
