Not sure about the tweeter, think it's an Eminence. A / B'd this cab with barefaced 10", this sounded much nicer. There's lots over on Talkbass about these cabs
BassBod Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 I had a composite version - seemed a bit fragile, but was fantastically light. Always sounded great, with real depth.

It sounds superb with an Acoustic Image amp, folks are amazed at the sound and volume coming from such a tiny package. I've also got a ply version which sounds a little brighter.

[/quote] Yes, that sounds like the same cab - quick repair with epoxy resin glue, but didn't try to disguise it as it would have taken longer to build up a layer and blend it in. Would buy the blue one if I had the cash, but too lazy to sell other things on 😳
Mr Bassman Posted July 27, 2017 Author Posted July 27, 2017 The Blue cab is 8.5 kilos Bit heavier than the other 2 due to the tweeter & crossover.
MOSCOWBASS Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 I've been using a crazy 8 for a year or so, it covers bigger gigs than i thought it would, people cant believe how much sound comes out of that thing, it's a great little cab. I drive it with a MESA D800, switched to 2 ohms to reduce power output, but the amp is still way more powerful than the cab should handle, but I regularly use it in restaurants and small pubs, I'm not saying its for heavy rock, but I have used it with a 17 piece big band, no DI and it did it....wouldn't like to push it any further, takes low B no problem. GLWS, great little cab
