Default Roland Cube 30 Bass or: Putting a sock in it.

Decoupling the negative black lead (not ground) via a 10u polyester cap to
the scope ground the electronic trace was fine at all frequencies and
powers. Semi-permanently blocked off the reflex/bass port or whatever that
hole is called and the intrusive 50 to 70 Hz induced flutter has gone. Just
the normal low level flutter , for low frequency, high power output due to
vortexing/cavitation or whatever the normal distortion due to bulk shifting
of air mass by a cone is called.
