New Matamp Cab - Special Bassday Only Price

[tayste_2000]

Looks mighty sexy

[PURPOLARIS]

Looks great but I think I'll change that grill. Not sure about it, there looks to be more metal than holes, how much of the sound is it going to restrict ?

[Musicman20]

Nice. Im guessing no chance of 4 ohm versions?

Yeah i would need a 4 ohm version! Would be difficult with a 6x10 cab though.

I have the same grill on my 4x10 and 8x10 and there is far less metal in it than say a standard grill with small holes

Im sure Bergs 6x10 is 4 ohms? Much more money though!

Not really a true 4ohm cab think it's like 3.67ohms

Yeah i would need something pretty much exact if i was running through the SVT right?

[tayste_2000]

SVT does 2 ohms, get the 2 ohm version

I am aware of that, but I wouldnt be able to run the Barefaced at the same time!

[Happy Jack]

Forget all this "does it come in 4-Ohm" nonsense ... does it come in a 20Kg version?

Whats the impedance of the barefaced 4?

You could get the 8 ohm version an be fine running it on the 2ohm tap at 2.67 ohms I did it with my mesa for ages

[tayste_2000]

Or get 2 8ohm 6x10s to run with your 2x15 ;p

That would be putting less power into the less sensitive cab (from the heavy voice coils, and sealed cab, 95% sure the Barefaced is significantly more sensitive). Plus I don't get the impression Ampeg output transformers are especially robust.

That would probably balance the volume. Would kind of totally negate the weight advantage of the BFV, although Shockwave's Ampeg head does that.

Give me the money and i will!

Didnt think the SVT would be very happy running at that.

[tayste_2000]

FYI these are really collection only but I'm going to Devon on the 29th if anyone wants to meet near Bristol to get one off me, I've already got one on order like this.

Cheers

that grill has totally killed my gas ;o would be so much more awesome if you could get it with a tweed one and in a proper colour like green ;(

[PURPOLARIS]

Ok, It's been doing my head in lying on its side like that. Here it is the right way up

Great looking cab - used to have the Warwick stuff also finished in similar metal grille style (defo. less inconspicuous in black) didn't affect sound one iota !!!

[tayste_2000]

Bump, great to mee everyone who came to Bass Day to try it out.

This offer has now expired and the cabs are now £650

I'll be getting mine in about 2 weeks, bring on the 18x10

[Finbar]
