Bassy Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Hi i sold a Mesa boogie 4x10 and i want to replace it with a couple of 2x10's, just so its easier to transport. I like the idea of Eden D210xlt/ xst cabs, but I've read that they break up when using a 5 string? Surely that cant be true? Any other 2x10's that people are using that sound good for low B? Btw. I'm using a Gk800rb head - 300w Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzyvee Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Mesa boogie powerhouse 2x10 is a good choice. I use one for my weekly jam session but they are pretty heavy weight cabs to carry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 The best 210 I've ever used was 2 Bergantino AE210 cabs. Tight low end, punchy mids, full, fat, no boom, mud or woolliness. Low B (and the other 4 strings) heaven. I moved on to Berg 112's then a Berg 212, which were all fantastic cabs, but those 210's really were special. I would expect their replacements, the HD210's and HDN210's, to be equally good. Bergs are going to be increasingly unobtainable with the pound exchange rate tanking. If you want to find a great UK made 210 I'd read some reviews of the Barefaced Two10. I haven't played one yet but my One10 is an eye opener and the reports of the Two10 seems to indicate another equally game changing cab.

IanA Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Have just picked up a Vanderkley 210LNT (1200 watt @4 ohm) from Bass Direct, the B string on my Nordy sounds huge through it. Well worth a test drive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Dare Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Use enough of them and any decent 2x10 will work with a low B. Use just one and none of them will do it at any great volume. The fundamental frequency of a low B is below the cut off for virtually any 10" driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to doubt the Two10 would do just as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
