Amp choice for a 410 cab ?

[fryer]

So, I've tried loads of cabs with 12" speakers, bur having recently bought an old Peavey 410, I prefer the sound of this to all the previous cabs. I use a Hofner Club, semi accoustic with flat wound strings, so I guess theb 410's take out the woolyness.

I'm using this cab with a Peavey Firebass 700, which is ok, but is really heavy.

I'm gonna keep the cab, but which lightweight amp would sound similar to the firebass ? I tried an Orange terror, which was ok with the previoius 12's, but would it suit this P 410 ?

From my experience, Peavey cabs sound great, and also seem to sound like a Peavey no matter what bass/amp is going through them. The Terror is a great little amp, and also has its own, albeit limited, sound. So really, if you like the Terrors sound, and the Peavey 410s sound, I think you`ll be very happy pairing them together. The 410 may make the Terrors sound a little tighter/more focused, due to the 10s, but for an old-school rock sound, I think it will sound great.

My suggestion would be the Hartke LH500, I agree with Lozz about peavey cabs sounding like peavey cabs no matter what you put through them and the hartke seems to be the best bang for buck power and quality wise
