tauzero Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 There's very few 2x10s that weigh in at 15kg. Most of them are 20kg, so they weigh nearly as much as my 4x10. As I am weak and weedy, I want something light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauzero Posted January 1, 2015 Author Share Posted January 1, 2015 [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1419008485' post='2635704'] IME I'd happily recommend 2 Bergantino AE112 cabs or 2 Barefaced Super Compacts. [/quote] [quote name='JTUK' timestamp='1419012748' post='2635759'] A couple of Berg AE112's will do the job and they weigh around 32lbs [/quote] And these turned out to be the winners, and JTUK just happened to know someone selling a pair of them . After a NYE gig with them, I'm very happy. Plus they give me even more permutations on the car-sized Tetris that I do for every gig (bass gear plus PA and foldback and some lights).

lojo Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I use 2 x 210s apart from it being equal to 410 the 2 x 210 for me are also that they are easy to carry and one on top of the other gives me 2 of the 210s at a decent monitor level I did use a 212 on its own for a while, but even placed on its side its not the same as my 2 x 210 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime_BASS Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1419008485' post='2635704'] What amp will you be using? IME I'd happily recommend 2 Bergantino AE112 cabs or 2 Barefaced Super Compacts. I used 2 AE112 cabs for nearly 7 years (loudly, with 5 string basses and lots of low mids dialed in) and they easily took over from my Epifani 410. I didn't miss the 410 at all. I'd recommend the CN212 but, at 46lbs, it's over your limit. IME it's worth extending your weight limit to include the CN212. Last week I saw 2 Super Compacts in use with a TC RH750. What a great sound that was. One of the best I've heard in recent years. [/quote] This, end of thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
