Why, Hello forum!

For the last 3 years, I've been running two amps in my rig. They sounds sexy in conjunction but as my band begins to tour and play shows further and further away, I'm beginning to feel like my two amps take up to much room.

My current set up is an Orange 30W head on an orange 1X12 cab and a Randall 100SC (2X12 cab).

The main issue is with the Randall. Its too heavy. I'm considering buying an unloaded 2X12 and putting the Orange speaker in one side and a Randall in the other, affectively making two 1X12's in the same box.

But I need a small, powerful head. Any suggestions?

I'm hoping to find one with a graphic eq and/or a DI. If thats not possible, a nice line out would be appreciated.

Hey Forum!

I'm new to the forum but not to electronics (I'd say novice), I've built a guitar and a few pedals, but recently I've run into a snag.

I'm using a Bass Peavey Amp as my secondary in my Wall-O-Sound set up, but two things suck about it, 1: It's not mine and 2: It's not loud enough sometimes. Though the members in my band think I'm nuts, I'm pretty sure its an issue with the amp, every once in a while, it'll crap-out and go quieter. It isn't an issue when I'm practicing but at shows its annoying. The only thing I can do is boost it on the mixer I'm using but that only boosts the signal, and with a noisy signal its hard to find a balance between noise and usable signal.

All I want is something with a volume knob that I can hook up to a 12" 8ohm speaker. It doesn't even have to be that clean if it can get loud. It has to compliment an Orange Rocker 30w Head on a 1X12 cab.

I need a schematic and... hell, well, Idea's! I'm new to the amp end of this.

Please Help!
