Anyone using a pair of Barefaced One-10 cabs?

[fretmeister]

I've got a One-10 and I love it.

On it's own I don't think it is enough to cope with a raging drummer - so is anyone using a pair for that purpose?

If so - how are you getting on?

In my constant battle for weight loss I'm wondering about selling my Bergs and using a pair of One-10 instead.

I'll be interested to find this out too. My BB2 copes admirably, but 2 X 10's could be spot on if they're loud enough.

There's a guy on TB who is using a One10 and Super Midget together. He seems to be very happy with that combination.

[fretmeister]

I'm getting more tempted by the minute.

I might have to take the plunge.

[Grangur]

I had a Super MIdget and a One10. The One10 has more bottom-end than the SM 12". It's got a really great rounded sound with my LM3.

I don't gig, but if I did I'd get a second One10. I spoke with Alex when I picked it up and he reconed a One10 would handle a gig and adding a 2nd would be be massive. (All things being relative)

I live in East Herts, anyone is welcome to come and try mine if you'd like.

[fretmeister]

I think I'm going to do it.

It's a great sounding cab, and I don't play full on rock much these days - I'm playing more left hand piano scores, big band, swing etc.

The missus will be happy if the Berg stack is removed from the lounge!

[CamdenRob]

I was thinking about this a couple of months back... be interested to hear how you get on if you do go for it.

[chris_b]

That's settled then.

You get the cab and we all form an orderly queue to come and hear it.

[mrtcat]

Worth considering selling the one10 and just getting a 4ohm two10? It's £100 less than two one10s. If it were me I'd be more tempted to do that I think as the two10 isn't that big either and you'd possibly get £250 for a one10 on here.

[fretmeister]

I like using a single cab for small stuff - playing with woodwind instruments etc. the 2x10 would be over kill.

At least I've got something to aim for then - try to play properly in front of you bunch of drunks!

[Alanbass]

I'd be really interested to hear how two One10's works out in practice. I had wondered if (to cope with increased volume through a small light enclosure) it might mean that the mids would be enhanced with a loss of bass especially playing 5 string. I've got no option now but to seek a very light weight cab (s) so very keen to consider these cabs.

[Chienmortbb]

I would have thought the bass would be fine. I cannot see how adding a second cab would lose bass, quite the opposite. The overall effect of adding a second identical cab stacked vertically is close to 6 db overall and a bit more for the low end.

[fretmeister]

As soon as some one buys my Bergs I'll do a review.

[cybertect]

A pair of One-10s is definitely on my agenda too...

Take a single to rehearsals and quieter gigs (my band often plays as an 'acoustic' trio with a cajon) and both of them when we are a four-piece electric with kit drums and our lead guitarist with his Fender twin.

[DBerriff]

I have two One 10s. I finally get to try them out with a big band next week, but it will only be in a small rehearsal room. I'll let you know how it goes.

[Jazzneck]

I've got a Retro Two10 and at 13Kg and -125dB I can't see the point of having 2 separate 1x10 cabs.

I use mine for quiet practise at home to full on gigs with a very loud drummer.

Apart from packing considerations in the car / van, am I missing something here?

Yup.

When you play with an educational group that has maybe 8 room changes during a day you don't want a single ounce of unnecessary weight.

OK, I'll concede that one then,
