[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1323016603' post='1458308'] Although last week on Later he was using GK. [/quote] I believe either the Acoustic deal is no more or he's just using GK over here as it's easier to source. Threads on TB about it but I got bored of them

[quote name='xgsjx' timestamp='1323008854' post='1458204'] I've not checked the web, but I would have thought the config would have been prior to then? [/quote] Good point, I guess they (claim they) did the first bass-specific 4x10 but the format no doubt predates them.

[quote name='alexclaber' timestamp='1323005702' post='1458133'] So which company started the 4x10" on 1x15" stack thing? [/quote] Was it TE perchance? Didn't they claim to have made the first bass-specific 4x10?

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1322940928' post='1457626'] I have used /owned/stolen various makes and model of each and a 1x15 has always been bassier to the ear (not interested about the technical bit) than 4x10 with or without tweeters. [/quote] Not being interested in the technical bit is the problem. You're completely misunderstanding WHY you think the 15 is bassier than the 4x10. Ah well

Does your 4x10 have a tweeter and if so is it on?

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1322919425' post='1457290'] I know you are the expert here Bill but goes higher or lower is a red herring because as I said before if both cabs are of a similar quality running off the same amp hence the same EQ settings then the 15 will be producing more of the lower frequencys than the 4x10 even if that 4x10 could handle more. Also the horn is much more likely to be in the 4x10 if your rig is configured that way. If its so wrong why does every pa system have this config too? [/quote] PA is a different matter as the tops only have the high frequencies and the subs the lows. A bass rig with 4x10 and 1x15 will be running both full range. And why would a 15 produce more lows than a 4x10 with the same EQ settings? That's utter nonsense methinks

If it has a blue light then you absolutely need to keep it

Cheers for the heads up, this looks really cool My first amp was an Escort Bass combo

Nice little review, let us know how you get on

Swapped the MB 500 for an MB Fusion, very happy I did so,this rig is phenomenal! The MB200 was powering our drummer's monitor, long story...

PS I have just swapped an Eden WT550 for the GK MB Fusion so can totally see where you're coming from hence my recommendation!

[quote name='grimbeaver' timestamp='1322237553' post='1448465'] never tried one tbh I was always under the impression GK was more in the smooth clear and crisp tone bracket [/quote] Not at all. Totally in your face and aggressive if you want it to be and they both have Boost "channels" for grit.

Gallien Krueger MB500 or MB Fusion would probably do nicely

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1322230352' post='1448297'] That's pretty impressive. When I ran your MB200 through my Compact/Midget stack, the results were very good ... but actually persuaded me to buy an MB500 instead. That Super 12 must be quite astonishing. [/quote] To be fair it was when I was using chorus that it got REALLY silly. I liked it

I destroyed my band the other night with my MB200 thru my newly acquired Super 12. Amazing cab, just like 51m0n says. [size=1]Hey, Simon says buy Barefaced... [/size]

Dave, I've just pulled the trigger on the MB Fusion...... Just to confuse you perhaps further It should arrive tomorrow

I gig an MB200 regularly with a Barefaced Vintage (formerly) or now a Super12. Seems to have enough power for me but I also have the MB Fusion incoming coz I want vaaaaaalves!

Sold a GK MB500 to Pete, absolute pleasure to do business with you and would gladly do so again! Enjoy the amp
