Actually, with this resurrected, what is the latest thinking with how a 210 and 410 pairing compares to 2 vertical 210s?

I have a ABM 410 that I use at reheasals and 2 x ABM 210s for gigs. I've tried the various combinations (410+210, 2x210 upended etc) and couldn't tell the difference really! Maybe there is a difference across a large room, but in the rehearsal space there wasn't much in it in terms of tone or volume. No idea how much of that is due to height or speaker physics. The upended 210 stack looks cool, and that counts for a lot. But to be honest its plenty loud enough stacked the normal way. The twin 210s are way louder than the 410 on its own tho.

Nice rig! I may go that way soon.

You mean the 2 210s are noticeably louder than the single 410? (I guess the 410 is 8 ohm?) but not louder than the 610 arrangement?
Thanks

Thanks
Yes all cabs are 8ohm. Actually the 610 arrangement seemed about the same as the 210s stacked vertically - certainly not much in it. May just have been easier to hear that way - but certainly cuts through a treat.
The 610 set up seemed a tad louder than the 210s stacked the nomal way - but not enough to justify lugging the 410 to gigs.
The - 2x210 is (I'd estimate) are a good 25% louder than the 410 on its own - probably due to Ohms and height. Someone mentioned may be differences in cab sensitivity - but who knows.
Its been fun trying it all out
Overall verdict - 2x210 rules ok.
