All the videos I take with my phone are just instant mic blowup. I'm going to record some high quality demo clips of Mr. Grumpy when I'm off work next week though.

EDIT: I did take a quick video clip the first time I turned it on, to document it working. I never turned the volume above noon, but it's still overloading the mic a bunch. No pedals, just my standard tuned P bass straight in.

I took a better video this morning. I could only turn the master volume up to about 10 o'clock and not completely clip the mic on my phone, so it's at about 1/4 volume or something like that. Still pretty loud in the actual room.

Thanks Skip, now I just need to resist the temptation to have a matching custom 4x15 built.

Oversize straight baffle style. I designed on to build myself a couple years ago, but I had to spend the materials budget on emergency dental work. Then the baby was born and I just didn't have the spare time. If I do it I may look into having Petras at Atlas build it for me. We'll see how the 612 build comes out first and what the money situation is in the near future.

You know I'd vote for one that matches the 6x12 atleast in aesthetics if not size as well. You could also do what I did and just order a 3x15 in a 6x12 enclosure, follow the golden ration 2:1 12's to 15's.

What kind of 15's did you put in yours? What's the impedance on it?

The one locked spec on any build is it has to be wide and deep enough for the head, because it's huge. Not that hard for guitar cab sizes, bass stuff is always more narrow.

Weber Michigans. Total = 8ohms

I feel you on that, the Naki is wide as fuck. It barely fits on top of my Emperor 6x12, which is quite wider than the Ampeg Fridge you've got Mr. Grumpy on. And it looks like he barely fits over the edges of that cab so you should be fine with the 6x12 or similar sized cab.

Sweet score of 160lbs of badassery for dirt cheap!!!!! Our bassist has one of those, the cab sounds amazing and really fills a room but dear lord of mercy its a heavy beast. I'm fairly certain it weighs more than my 6x12.....

I keep reading accounts of how heavy this thing is supposed to be, but I can wrangle it by one handle and an arm over the top... :idk: Half the weight may be the speakers, the Black Widows in this thing are no joke...

Oh well, it's about to get a little heavier... I thought the thing was made of actual wood, and therefore stainable... turns out to be particleboard, so HELLOOOOO BED LINER! :lol:

All that aside, it sounds fucking MASSIVE... :love:
