    In my situation the Kabinet does not fully touch the ground so I guess it doesn't add enough bass to the floor. Would you think of that as "lifted"? It's actually even leaning against the crappy amp behind it since I don't have stands for the Kabinet yet.


    I am constantly playing around with either Bass Boost on or adding more bass to the EQ. But it sounds a bit sweeter with the Bass boost on and lower bass EQ for my neck P90.

    I just want to make sure not to adjust incorrectly for the Kabinet and then losing the good sound mix for FOH.

  • It looks "lifted" to me. Anytime the cab is off the floor you loose some bass resonance. Sometimes that is preferred. I have an amp stand for my Marshall DSL to kill some of that "boominess".
