Re: bass speaker cab question
I always thought that the 4x10 and 8x10 cabinets had more than enough low end for anything I'd ever need to do. Depending on the music, I usually give the deep frequences to the kick drum anyway so the difference between 10", 12", and 15" is lost. In a live setting this may be different. This may not apply if you are playing reagea.
What kind of music are you playing? I see a lot of rock bass players who are obsessed with low end, but usually that type of tone does not fit in their mix very well. I'd like to see more Guns N Roses bass sounds every once in a while. Of course, guitar players also think they want enormous low end in their tone. So does the drummer. You end up with a mess.
As for DIs, there are many. A lot of good bass heads come with one. The Sansamp DI is pretty cool. What is your budget?
