BassAdder60 Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I had that cab with a LM3 head and it worked well 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding a second cab is always an option too, stacked vertically of course, it’s tall! Mine doesn’t see as much action as my little Elf and Barefaced One10’s though, but that’s down to the gigs I’m doing. Rob 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassist on the Run Posted March 5, 2023 Author Share Posted March 5, 2023 Decided against the cab and I think I’m 75% heading down this route. I’ll only be playing pubs for now so no need for the 810 ampeg rig quite yet 😂 this looks to have everything I need and I can stack it should I need a bigger sound which at the moment is very doubtful. Any thought would be appreciated 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ossyrocks Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 My thoughts. Combos are more cumbersome and heavy to move. I like the flexibility of heads and cabs and the fact you can mix and match. In case of amp failure, a combo is a little more tricky to swap over to a backup. But, I'm sure that amp will sound great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear ya man but i can seem to find a cab and head in my budget. I’m also only using eBay as I can use PayPal credit etc which means I won’t get a divorcé immediately 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebadon2000 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I don't see how separate head[with that cab only] would be less cumbersome than combo; need a bag and another hand to carry. Also can fit any LM series amp in slot or most other amps also and have combo amp as backup in bag or get a top for it. If your the type who likes to change amp's and Cab's frequently because you can or on endless search for 'That Sound' then separates are the way to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stereoplayer Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 I use GK heads with mine. They give me all the tone and power in need. I have a GK fusion 500 and 3 MB-200’s. My mini stereo rig. I love MarkBass speakers. They deliver. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparky Mark Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Those VLE and VPF filters look set a bit high though. I know Warwicks have plenty of mids but I'd still have the VPF around 9 o'clock for starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassist on the Run Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 THE BLODDY VLE AND VPF IS TO HIGH. NOT ALOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT!!! I had literally just walked through door and plugged in so hadn’t even looked at the set up lol thanks for pointing it out tho. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curiosity feeds the question. the price I paid for both was not far off the asking price for the 210 so if anything it was an investment, but playing with the 15 in certainty adds some clout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassmanPaul Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 (edited) Many, many players think that a larger cone equates to a greater ability to produce lows. This is far from the truth as there are 15s that go higher than an average ten and tens, like those used in my Acme cabinets, that will happily thrust a Low B all day long. Secondly matching cabinets always work well together whilst dissimilar may not. Try stacking your boxes on their ends so that the drivers are vertical. You may just love the result. I certainly did! I love your Warwick. My Streamer is still the best sounding bass I own. It's tuned B E A D as I usually now play my six string basses.

Sparky Mark Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Quite a few Markbass users combine a 210 and 115 and are very happy with the result. Sometimes combining different speaker configurations works and other times it doesn't. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 I’ve found that a 210/115 seems to be a better combination than the 410/115. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
