    I’ve told you I’ve got a custom gear guy and am saving up to build an Amp from scratch. We’re trying to figure out how to add an infrasound function to a bass Amp.

      You need size to push those long wave frequencies. Friend had a 2x10 1x15 combo Amp that got real low. Also had a mechanic teacher in cc that was a real audiophile and did math to build custom speaker cabinets for his house. He could get down to like 1hz. More of a feeling than a sound down that low.

        I don’t know any of this stuff but have an engineer friend who’s sorta the third member of a noise/industrial series of projects me and my former roommate are working on and he makes my gear for me. I guess he figured out how to use tube’s between a coupe sets up amps to get a good acoustic reverb to really set a low hz thing. I wanna do a live set that empties a room

          Well that’s super easy. Just add an air compressor and carbon arc setup to your sets. That shit is fuckin LOUD.

          Otherwise, iirc you have to do math to figure out what the air in the cab wants to resonate at and tune your speaker to match. If it doesn’t destroy the cab, you will have big noise at whatever frequency you wanted from the start.

      I was talking to a homie about a 300w plexi a time ago, but I’ve been way too fuckin broke for a long time to make that materialize. If you get the infrasound working…holy shit, that might be a first as far as I’m aware. Keep me posted!

        It’s probably gonna be a giant dedicated box and not something that can be hooked up to snap instrument, it’s well beyond my understanding. All I know I’d when I ask for a bass Amp that sounds and my quote exactly “like buildings falling down” and then got exactly that, my faith in this dude was full
