TRBboy Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Hi folks! Currently considering going back to a 4x10 from my current 2x12, and just wondered if anyone here had any experiences to share regarding the Markbass STD 104HF? I've had positive experiences with Markbass gear in the past (CMD102p + TRV115), but never this particular cab. It looks to tick all the boxes for me, but I'd be grateful for any real world experiences. Any help appreciated, cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky Mark Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 I used to have a 4 ohm STD104HF which I used with either a LM3, SA450 or TA503 head. It was absolutely the best cab for larger or outside venues. Too big physically for my latest car and small pubs so it had to go. I don't know if the current version is as good as my earlier version loaded with B&C speakers. At £400 for secondhand it's a brilliant 410. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the Italian made ones I'm looking at, and the way you've described it is exactly what I'm looking for! Is it really that big though? Need to check the specs again!

Sparky Mark Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 (edited) You're welcome. Although it's very lightweight for a 410 cab having slot ports at both front top and bottom makes it fairly tall and it's quite deep too. But those dimensions allow it to go deep as well as very loud. I'd recommend that you get a 4 ohm version if possible as you can utilise your amplifier's full output as I can't imagine needing to add another cab. It's that loud with a genuine 500 watt head.

M@23 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I really like them too. Very powerful cabs. I really like Markbass cabs, wanted to pick up a 4x10, but decided to go for one of the 2x12s to save space. They're quite chunky with the ports, but if that's not an issue, go for it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
