Is that correct? It seems counterintuitive.

I thought that too until I read the manual !

I'd assumed that it was an "ON/OFF" switch but it's not ! It's actually a trip switch (very much like what you have in a house fuse box) which then made sense of why it needs to be flipped to the "on" position before power is reconnected.

Simples !

Hi, I am looking forward to receiving my 4B³ in the near future. Can anyone recommend a good solid amp stand in case I want to get the amp up off the wood floor

Thanks!

I used one of the platforms under my 4bsst2. It is now under my turntable. I will get two more for my 28s

Also check out SolidSteel products. I have one of their midrange equipment racks

James the Cube is fantastic, it's a big jump in subjective sound over the square and it goes a lot louder before clipping...

James,

Any idea when the 135 squared is coming out? I notice the web page says new photos coming soon.

I'm secretly hoping I'll be able to update to cubed status.... Either way interested.

Cheers!

Hi

All current B135's are already Cubed versions. The cosmetics have not changed.

Thanks James.

I presume the silk screening will change? Hence the comment on the webpage that the photos currently show the old version?

Any news on ability to upgrade my 135?

James,

What is the current wait time on the 7b's, once you have the order.

Depending on colour and size about 2 weeks.

Haven't been on the A/C site for a while. Is there an update on the availability and cost to upgrade from 7BSST2 to 7B3?

HI

No sorry not yet - still trying to get the certification bureaucracy to allow us to do upgrades without having to have them certified.

Any chance the Pro Cubed amps can come with speakon connectors?

Hi Folks

Hi James,

So upgrading the SST2 units to Cubed series by the local distributor outside your factory is out of question, right?

Could one order the latest ^3 amps with the SST2 faceplates? I still like the idea of not having to explain much to my better half, when the budget allows for upgrades, hee hee. : )

Thanks,
Klao
