I've had difficulties with too much volume on stage with rear ports in the past.... I find front porting makes more sense. Any one else noticed that with the TC cabs, or do they project forwards very well?[/quote] I don't know if it's due to the rear porting but after gigging my OBT 1000 with a RS210, I really don't like how it projects. I find it has no punch or throw whatsoever. And I feel it only has kind of windy, lazy bass. I've used it in rehearsal, mid size venues and on big outdoor stages. I also used it alone and paired with the RS212. Even with the latter I felt it had no punch and no impact. No chest thumping. Volume-wise, I was surprised that only the RS210 was enough with a loud rock band. It's a shame because up close to the cab (1 feet away and at ear level), the cab sounds so good...! But in playing situation on stage, and I tried to move around a bit, but nothing did it. Only muddy, airy bass.
