Funky Dunky Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 And that's the ceiling. Ideally under £300. I'm looking for a nice, light 2x10 cab, new rather than used, to pair with a Markbass Little Mark head. I'm new to separates, always rocked combos. What can people recommend within those parameters? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M@23 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 TC K210 would be top of my list at that price. Or, phone round and see who will do you the best deal on a Markbass 102p and see if you can get nearer to budget. I really like those cabs, they can take a serious amount and really kick for such a small box. Great little rig with a LM3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Save another £30 and do it properly 4 ohm version to get the most out of a head. https://www.andertons.co.uk/p/TRV102P4OHM/bass-cabs/markbass-trv-102-p-4-ohm-traveller-bass-cabinet?LGWCODE=TRV102P4OHM;56375;6335&gclid=COC8-I_Mss4CFRaeGwodmnUGvg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hubrad Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 GK CX210 or 210MBE are strong contenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykesbass Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Fender Rumble V3 - under £320. I use one or two of the 112s and am very happy with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musicman20 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I would have said TC RS210...one of my favourite little powerful 2x10 cabs, but alas, they have increased in prices... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuNkShUi Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Any reason it has to be new? More options if you went used.... I'd go for the Markbass 102 if you want to go new though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Dunky Posted August 9, 2016 Author Share Posted August 9, 2016 I'm going new simply so I can put a head and cab package together and pay it up monthly. I don't have a great amount of disposable income but I have a steady wage. Nosey parker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky Dunky Posted August 9, 2016 Author Share Posted August 9, 2016 Oh God no, I didn't mean it like that! I said "nosey parker" as a punctuation, most definitely not an insult.

Twincam Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 The Rumbles are light but as fair as I know don't come with any insulation??? Where the tc k210 cabs do have insulation and do seem better built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Dare Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) May not need to buy new to get it on instalments. If you buy used from someone/somewhere where you can use PayPal, you can put it on your plastic and pay it off monthly. A couple of decent looking TC2x10s on Fleabay at the moment.

alexclaber Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Do you actually want a 2x10" or simply a cab whose loudness/tone/bottom is in the same ballpark as a typical 2x10"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 ^^^ I wonder where that's going... Any particular reason why you are particularly interested in buying new? 2nd hand will give you so many other options, and a second hand cab at least has its speaker properly broken in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should you list a load of potential 2.0l cars or should you point out that you can get more power and more economy out of a modern direct injection turbocharged 1.4l engine, and more space/practicality from a compact MPV, to help the buyer make a better informed decision?

[/quote] Depends on whether you make 2.0l guzzlers or 1.4l "modern" cars :-) If the OP likes the MB sound then the MB cab sounds like the ideal solution & is close enough price wise.
