Henriksen Bud 6

[Skip Ellis]

Got a call from a friend in another city yesterday who asked if I'd like to buy his like new Bud 6 at a very attractive price (he's going to stick with his Quilters) - I said "of course" so he shipped it yesterday afternoon and I rec'd it about noon today. Very impressed, so far - only shortcoming is it's an older model without Bluetooth which really isn't much of a drawback for me as I'd rather use a wire for the aux input. I got with ChatGPT yesterday and designed a matching sized extension cabinet to go with it using an Eminence Alpha A speaker that I had on hand - built most of that today and will finish it tomorrow. Looking forward to hearing the two together although the Bud seems pretty strong on it's own.

Wait.. the pictures you most certainly would have posted for a NAD, especially with a hand crafted extension cabinet, aren't showing on my computer..

Ask ChatGPT to create some pictures.

This one would be cool.

Here ya go.....the cabinet under it is my AI designed extension cabinet with an 8" Eminence Alpha A; unfinished but I have no patience and wanted to hear what it sounded like - pretty impressive so far with the Tele and will try it with the GB10 later tonight.

FWIW, I had to go back a couple times after thinking over the AI cabinet design and tell it that stuff wouldn't fit the way it said in the first place and it took the criticism very well and complimented me on my professionalism in checking the work. Pretty useful tool if used correctly.

J/k cabinet looks good.

Yep - sure did - didn't even argue - just owned the error and suggested changes to fix it

What do you think of it with your GB10? Curious both on the midi side.

Is that a Piezo tweeter in the bottom cab?

No, it's a 4 ohm, 120 watt bullet tweeter. That's a little homemade PA cabinet I built with a 100w class 'd' power amp in it with a Dayton Audio crossover into a 300watt 4 ohm Faisel 10" speaker. I just replaced the amp with 100 x 100 watt class 'd' - one side will go to the existing speaker/crossover/tweeter and the other will feed an extension cabinet with an Eminence Delta 10". Just fooling around with something to play backing tracks through. I feed the whole system with a Mackie ProFX6v3 mixer (guitar and both audio channels from my tablet, phone, or laptop).
