so i'd like to see people name 3 pieces of audio gear in their setup that are capable of offering up total audio destruction. don't list the kit that causes the neighbors to call the cops. tell me what scares the neighbors to the point that they want to avoid calling the cops at all costs since they fear the fallout.
my list in no particular order:
1) sherman filterbank2 - the box that produces the infrasonic and ultrasonic at the same time. it's so aggressive and it can surprise even after owning it for a few years. the other people you're jamming with know that you can be louder and far more aggressive than them if you choose.
2) sequential circuits pro-one - tweeter frying highs and subwoofer cooking lows, check. damn, those overdriven drum machines sound good through this thing.
3) altec 1591a - i drive this hard and people duck to avoid the incoming impact. i've seen this funky green box from the 60s surprise more than one pro engineer. it can sound so hardcore that people will start to question why they're wasting time tweaking the overdrive effect on a sampler. i guarantee those effects won't sound as aggressive as this.
what are you using?
