 What to look for? Bass guitar, basse Ă©lectrique, baixa

I picked up a set of JBL 305’s this week to jam with my kiddo when she comes out (just run sound through those and use my amp as a sub). Running them TRS to XLR, dig the sound on them. I didn’t even turn my amp on last night.

Well, we can always add bad spelling, no matter the language :crazy_face:

Cool. This is what I have been using for years now. The 305’s have plenty of low end, no need for a sub really.

To get sound working from my laptop to the JBL’s I had to run them through control room on my mixer and I’ve just got my amp working through phones. Messing around with it, I tend to agree. Unless I’m playing something that really needs that thump or that uses the B string on my 5, the JBLs can handle most of what I play perfectly.

You can also avoid the XLR adapter if you want because both the Control Room outs and the 1/4" ins on the monitors are balanced TRS. No advantage going from that to balanced XLR.

Yep, I’m running them TRS out of the mixer to the XLR on the monitors. No adapter. I kinda hate adapters and avoid them as much as possible.

Edit: and I got 25’ cables so I can move them around the room. I’ll pick up stands this week.

Yep, I just meant you could go with a cheaper cable if you want or need. TRS/TRS is fine too.

I don’t actually like the headstock on this one. If it were a tele-style one, I’d be sorely tempted

$1200 and no aux in? (Can’t see from the manual if the send/return would give you this) Plus if you’re going to do a headphone jack then go 1/4” like the HX Stomp :man_shrugging:
