bassix Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I've recently picked up a Little Mark II which i'm very happy with so far, just wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a cab to partner it with? I play in a punk band with a precision bass generally in venues with a 100-300 capacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirkThrust Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 One of the Schroeder 1212Ls in the for sale section? The LM2 and 1212 are supposed to be very good match although I've never used them together myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xgsjx Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 What's your favourite soup? Mine's a Markbass 2x10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Depending on your preference, either a couple of Markbass 210s or 112s. That said, a Markbass 104HR sounds great with those amps - and not too heavy a lift either, in fact a good one-cab solution. I was using a Precision/Markbass Little Mark Tube which is essentially a Little Mark with a bit of warmth into the 104HR doing punk, great set-up all round.

chris_b Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I'd get a 410 or 2 210's. You'll get a lot more punch and attack out of the 10's. I don't play anything like punk, but with my LM2 I used 2 Aguilar GS112's and then an Epifani 410. It's a great little amp and made all my cabs sound good.

This setup was the supplied backline at a gig I played and it did indeed sound very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzz Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 The Schroeder 1212, 1210 and 1515s are a good match with the LM heads. I had a LMIII and a 1515, and a friend gigged a LMIII and a 1212, both are great for rock/punk tones, tho I found I needed a Sansamp pedal to put some SVT-like aggression into the amp. The cabs are just the job, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebenezer Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 i use my lm 2 with aguilar gs 112(pair) and also berg hs 210(pair).....sounds great with either set up also sounds good with one cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassix Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 Thanks for the suggestions, I may have a little investigation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Have a think about a Barefaced Super 12. This cab has better sensitivity so will make your amp sound louder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJE Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I used a EBS Proline 212 (4ohm) and a EBS Neo 410 (4ohm) with my old markbass, It worked well, lots of power as I was pulling the full amount out of the head. EBS make superb cabs and they can be picked up very cheap, I still have the Neo 410 but the MarkBass disappeared a while ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismuzz Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Precision basses sound incredible through all MB rigs, however the LM2 will sound great with pretty much any cab! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
