They make bass amplifiers. Fender bought them in 2003.

"Social Justice Warrior," has basically replaced "PC Police."

their 8x8 bass cab sounds way better than it has any right to though.

It's sort of like when Mackie bought Ampeg. Then all the shitty Ampegs appeared

or when Fender bought Sunn amps and re-issued the Model T (which, from what I understand, can b liked but has a different thing going on)

I'm really wondering what will happen to TC electronics after Behringer bought that

The Fender Model T is a totally different amp, literally and figuratively.

I have no problem with that, but calling it a Model T after buying Sunn might be somewhat confusing, ya dig? :idk:

even without buying Sunn it would be :lol:

Like Mudfuzz, this is the only place where I've heard of Whirr, but will say the Distressor EP is good music to fall asleep too.

G.L.O.S.S. seems cool, the Femme/trans/queer punk is refreshing with all these white guys around.

King Woman also sounds like good music to fall asleep too, or a wall of noise live.

Was initially concerned, but it's been a while and they've released a few great products in the interim (Polytune Clip, BodyRes, Helix, etc.)
They're my favourite non-boutique company so I was shitting bricks when the news came out but I've seen no change in quality.

I'm not convinced. I'd expect them to have a lot planned beforehand and it might be that their ideas are still running and Behringer's influence has not caught up yet

King Woman are fucking rad.
I really don't have a lot to contribute other than that.
