Schipi Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Hi! I’m a bass player and I’m using a Hx-stomp with two headrush 112. They are very comfortable but I am not satisfied with the sound. I’d like to replace the woofer but I can’t find the speaker or power amp specs. Does anyone know them? Thanks! P.S. I’m Italian, sorry for my English… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunedinDragon Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Forget everything you ever knew about speaker cabinets, power amps, and specs because none of it applies to modern powered speakers like the headrush. First, it's not an amp, it's a bi-amp which gets allocated separately between the horn and speaker as determined by the programming of the DSP chip in the speaker to establish a specific response profile and projection characteristics. These aren't off-the-shelf speakers but are specifically built to work with the DSP bi-amp system and the moulded design of the cabinet. Unless you've got a masters degree in digital electronics and acoustical engineering, I'd leave it alone...or get a different set of powered speaker with better built-in contouring options like the QSC K.2 or Yamaha DXR series. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmalle Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Since you use the HX Stomp: Try a parametric eq block in the end of the signal chain to find the frequencies you're not liking and adjust. This resource on equalization might help - especially 'Approach 1 – Remove Nasty Elements'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be aware if you do this you probably want to only target the 1/4" outputs you'll use for the headrush so that you don't affect the tone that will be going to the FOH for the audience which probably won't need the same correction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schipi Posted May 29, 2021 Author Share Posted May 29, 2021 Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately I have already tried with the eq ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
