la bam Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Hi all, I'm loving my ampeg svt preamp into a class d head. However, I've tried it through my barefaced super 12, and through my ashdown rm x2 2x10 cabs, and the rm sounds much much nicer, perhaps because its sealed? So what decent lightweight, but heavy duty sealed cabs are currently on the market? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skychaserhigh Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Hartke Hydrive 210 cabs are sealed. Very punchy and can handle a decent amount of power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just too unique a sound for the ampeg though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassAdder60 Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 2 hours ago, Jus Lukin said: Was it definitely the LF? The PF-115LF is ported. "The Ampeg PF-115LF bass enclosure delivers the performance, looks and affordability of the popular Portaflex series in a powerful, shelf-ported design that hits hard and low. Handling 400 watts and featuring a single 15″ Eminence® driver, the PF-115LF sounds great and looks even better." Sorry my mistake you’re correct it was ported .. maybe that’s why it sounded woolly lol 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
