ReeV0 Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 hi guys, i think i've finally decided to go with the GK neo 1001/212 combo. now since there are 2x12 speakers in it, i could either get another 2x12 cab which will lock into place underneath it and fit perfectly. or could i buy the GK neo 410 cab to put underneath it? i'd quite like to have some punchy 10s as well as 12s instead of all 12s. please could you tell me if this would work? (i.e. not topple over) many thnaks Quote

(i.e. not topple over) many thnaks[/quote] Oh excellent choice Sir. I would love to hear this rig sometime if you fancy coming to one of the Bassbashes. I've just sold on my GK RB700 1x15 combo and a matching 2x10RBH cab. Normally I would suggest that the 2x10 would be a great way to add punch but I didn't find my 2x10 was that punchy. Having said that, it wasn't a Neo cab either. Maybe the Neo cab might be punchier? (Do they make one?) Quote
ReeV0 Posted May 20, 2008 Author Posted May 20, 2008 (edited) yes they do make one, but im just concerned about the dimensions. i want it all to be able to stack nicely, and so far i am only 100% sure that 2 neo 212s will stack. the neo 410 is wider and so the interlocking corners wont match up, and i'm worried the 212 will fall off the 410 (if im not careful). with the neo 210, i wouldnt really know where to put it. rather than being too long, it is 1.5 inches too short to stack underneath properly. this is the site i'm getting my info from: [url="http://www.rmcaudio.com/gallien-krueger/gk-cabinets.htm"]http://www.rmcaudio.com/gallien-krueger/gk-cabinets.htm[/url] Edited May 20, 2008 by jjl5590 Quote

My 4x8 combo has castors and sits on top of a 4x8 cab of exactly the same dimensions, the castors are right on the corners but it's fine Quote
ReeV0 Posted May 21, 2008 Author Posted May 21, 2008 im just a little worried that if i accidently knocked into it, the rig might go flying if not properly secured Quote

MythSte Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 I think you'll get better results with another 212 matey! The guys in the know say that you shouldnt really mix driver sizes unless your properly bi-amping Quote
RussFM Posted May 29, 2008 Posted May 29, 2008 You won't have any problems with the punchiness of the 212, it's way better than a standard speaker. I'd go for another Neo 212 for sure. Quote
trent900 Posted May 29, 2008 Posted May 29, 2008 4x12 GK power would be monster...you won't need it. Ever. But that's not the point, is it? Quote
bass_ferret Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 DOnt know how many times I have said this, but mixing speaker sizes can give unpredictable results. If you want to add a speaker to a 212, add another 212. Quote
The Funk Posted May 30, 2008 Posted May 30, 2008 Ok, you've got all the advice you need now. Just buy it already! The next thread you start had better be "check out my new rig". Quote
