No not louder, although I haven’t tried it yet, but it’s bloody loud. Plenty loud for anything I’m doing festival wise. These things are killer, small and compact, light and sound huge! The 6x10 BF is a beautiful cab and sounds great with my DB751, Ampeg V4B and the Handbox but it’s the Handbox that’s going out this year. I was blown away when I tried @wateroftyne one at the impromptu Bass Bash up here and just had to have one. They are that good! There’s a HUGE thread on Handbox on here, read it mate, there’s lots of happy bassists raving about them 😁
