Got around to taking a pic at last !

Genz Benz Streamliner 900 & Genz Benz 810-XB3

Early tests indicate that they match together really nicely. The XB3 certainly seems to be able to handle the copious bass output of the Streamliner, as the cab has such a "solid but tight bottom" (sorry for the double-entendre but I couldn't think of a better description).

Gigged the cab (different amp) last sat - incredible cab. Can't wait to give the full Genz rig a proper outing ! Currently, it's the hottest living room rig in the neighbourhood ! Got to wait until 2 weeks tomorrow to unleash it on the public though.

I didn't know they made an 810! Does it weight a ton? That port looks massive, if you have a cat I wouldn't be surprised if you found it asleep in there one day!

Got it through Mark at Bassdirect. I'm pretty sure he said it was the last one in Europe. And it weights 130 lbs ! Heavy, but not too bad to push around on it's wheels. Thankfully I have both a vehicle and a house with ramps up into them. If that wasn't the case there's no way I'd own this cab.

Strange you mentioned cats. We have 3 cats and all 3 instantly shot inside the cab to check out the interior within seconds of seeing it. In fact, I have to keep the cab covered up when I'm not playing it. Not only is it a huge potential cat sleeping zone inside, but it is a 50x24"x20" cat scratching post also ! (well it would be if I let them near it).

it's not all about the volume (although it's nice to potentially have a ton of headroom). I simply seem to enjoy the sound coming at me from a wall of speakers, even at moderate volume. A "fuller" sound, with a lot more of your highs and mids intact. A very pleasurable experience !

Thanks. I suspect your Shuttle and super twelve is quite a rig too ! (although perhaps a tiny bit lighter than mine).
