dmccombe7 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Having just bought an Orange OBC115 cab i thought maybe a 10" or 12" cab to give a bit clearer high end mids would be nice. [b]Here's the rub :- Why have Orange built cabs that don't sit evenly with each other.[/b] 115 cab is 24" wide yet the 410 cab is 25" which means the 15 would be safer sitting on top. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Anyone else find this a wee bit annoying when you want a good all round full bass rig. I know there are people that disagree with mis-matching speaker sizes but having used it for many years i just know it works well for me. The post isn't about the do's and dont's of speaker sizes just about manufacturer mis-matched cab sizes. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I used to use a practice room that had Orange stacks (1x15 + 4x10) set up and I never noticed a difference in width! In fact I noticed the 15 was on top one time and swapped them over to get the horn closer to my ears... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lw. Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I've also used the 410+115 Orange stacks & never noticed the difference! Not sure what you mean by "safer" though? You'd need a hell of a over-hang before things start falling over! Maybe Orange designed the cabs based on sound/performance rather than looks?

Musicman20 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Mine never had overhang....is it a redesign? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmccombe7 Posted February 15, 2017 Author Share Posted February 15, 2017 More than likely its a design more for sound than looks but every other cab designer has managed it. I'm going by the spec on their website. You would need to be big Arnie to knock over their 115 cab off the 410 i think. Only an inch in it but we could all do with an extra inch on the lw end Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was meaning the 410 and 115 cabs at 24 & 25" widths. How does that rig sound out of curiosity. Is it the 12 cab on top. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassmachine2112 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Hiho,It sounds big n beefy with loads of volume.I love the sound and quiet happily play with one cab most of the time but when a bit more welly is needed then I,m sorted. The sound goes very big with 2 cabs at 4 ohm which is awesome,don,t know if changing the ohmage does anything for sound or it,s the speaker area but it,s huge.Trick with a Terror head is getting the EQ right.

dannybuoy Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I know you weren't asking me, but I have the mids maxed, bass at 11 o'clock and treble at 2 o'clock. Flat setting is supposed to be bass and treble off and mids maxed btw - but that still sounds a little dark if you ask me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
