Anders Posted February 10, 2013 Posted February 10, 2013 I have an Ampeg SVT CL. I have had a quick listen to a Tecamp 2x15 which had a very soft and even lowend (good) and almost a bit muffled sound in the mids(not so good).It was completely free from booming sound,which I liked. Maybe the Tecamp 10" or 12" cabs has more even midrange but also some of that punchy soft lowend.Don't know. I'm looking for a cab that is quite small so that I can use the head fully even in medium sized rooms. Also,wide enough for the head.Maybe a Tecamp M210 on it's side? Suggestions? Quote
thumperbob 2002 Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Schroeder 1515L - had one of these- absolutely tiny- same size as a 1 x 12 - weighs nothing- 4 ohms so your amp will be fine with that. Massive tone and power- can be had for a little over £400. Quote

I'll look into what is said on talkbass also as it gets quite good reviews there too. The thing is though that I'm kind of set on Tecamp and don't want to have too much to choose from. I know what they sound like roughly and just can't say what size of cab is needed.I have narrowed it down to Tecamp so to speak. What they seem to have is an extreemly smooth and even sound with quite round low end.But as I said I'll try to find out how the 1515L sounds like too. Edited February 11, 2013 by Anders Quote

More low mid than ultimate low end. Quote
GUI101 Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I also am interested in getting a 2x12 tecamp, based on reviews read. Would appreciate anyone's experiences with these too. Cheers. Quote
RussFM Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 I use an S212, it's very punchy. In my punk band I like a lot of treble to hear the pick attack, but I barely touch the EQ, just have the tweeter on hard attack up full and turn the pre-EQ tone control on the Puma up to about 2 o'clock. Great cabs, well built, lightweight and sound great. Quote

I've seen a few clips of Tecamp 10" and 12"cabs on Youtube but it's always Tecamp heads.I don't know what makes the soundcharacter,head or cab. Quote
