Hi All, I was the one who wrote about a pleasant surprise finding two AltecLansing 421A's inside a circa 1971 250 bass rig my son bought. Maybe not so pleasant. I played his Fender Lyte (1997 Japan - active P&J pickups) through it last night and the amp "farts out" (I hate that saying but it is descriptive) at 4 on the volume setting. Methinks this is not Kosher. Tell me please what re-coning is. Also, do the active pickups on the bass guitar have anything to do with this? I would hate to buy some new Goddess-endorsed Carvins unless the problem is indeed the speakers. I have a gut feel that a 250 rig with 2 15" speakers should rock the house and not distort on volume 4. Whatch'all think? New speaker time? Thanks and Regards, Willy 2 Shoes
