Thanks tim hey tim meet tim

I think the big ben is the last box on my want list, least till another comes along and besides i have 3 m90's who on earth needs three, i know this there is gunna be one chap verry happy i won't give his name because he will announce it but he is only 23, 23 with the loudest m90 in the world, now that is REALY something.

 

[blah blah]

two tim's that are testy no doubt

i think you would like a big ben...seems top o the line to me, not the walloping bass of a kaboom but very strong and maybe not as loud as the m90 but still very loud and great sounding. (though I have never heard an m90 in person )

i would rather buy an m90 outright than trade my big ben for one.

besides you got a bunch of m90's anyhow!

Tim i only have 2 now my friend besides from what i hear about the big ben yea the m90 is louder but the big ben is better at low vol compaired to a normal m90, i was hoping that when i offered a trade you would have offered your big ben but alas you didn't not to worry i have an almost mint one on the way, im a little concerend though as this member seems to think a tpr 950 sounds better

Volume wise I think they are pretty close.
If your main thing is a W-I-D-E box then the Big Ben may not work but it's certainly deep and tall.

i heard a brand new big ben the thing sounded bad ass i saw about 30 of these stacked up in pyramids at a swap meet when i was a teenager, i thought the big ben's were great looking boxes kinda shaped like a tv set and hard to carry on your shoulder but still a kick ass unit.

 

[Gluecifer]

Also worth noting is that as well as the bass, the highs and mids are outstanding on the BigBen.
I would say it goes 'higher' than the M90 when tuned up.

I think they both have very different 'sound personalities', I find the M90 more dynamic and find the BigBen has more more of a sound-stage, especially due it's designed. It takes more effort to balance the sound on a BigBen though, as you have bass control and bass woofer volume control.

Definitely two of the highest quality sounding one piecer's though!



Rock On.

 

[MasterBlaster84]

You need a big shoulder and a long arm, even then it's not an easy carry.

 

[Pointdexter1906]

Wow, my mouth is watering over this thread! The B2 would round out my trifecta (yes, I am still under the dillusion that I WILL limit myself to three...) , those being the D8443 I have, the RC 550 I want, and the B2.

How much do these things go for in terms of cash, good condition?

 

[MasterBlaster84]

Your killing me PD, throwing out the trifecta limit.

BB's don't pop up often but historically they sell anywhere from $300 for poorer examples to $600 to $800 for the better ones. Now given the current change in economies all bets are off.

 

[blah blah]

i was hoping that when i offered a trade you would have offered your big ben

i was sorely tempted tim but didn't want you to be pissed at me when you hate it
really though your m90 is cleaner overall, mine has a couple of little dingers...

i am sure you will like it though, really pleasant sounding box.

 

[Radio raheem]

Thanks all im REALY looking forward to the big ben now
