Looking for a cab.

Im going to be looking at a new cab soon to run with a Sunn 300T.

I am running it with an Ashdown MAG410 which is ok, but I dont think it is the most sensitive and rounded of cabs.

I have been looking at an Aguilar GS412 and/or GS212. But wondered if anyone might have some other suggestions that could really handle the power of the amp. I play fairly driven tones with a pick and Pbass, so I was really looking for something that can handle OD and volume comfortably whilst moving some serious air.

Cheers.

GS412 will cover you. Used the SS version, Sunn 1200S (Joe Garcia's rig) and it copes ideally. Also ran one with a Laney Nexus 400w valve head, also happy.

The Barefaced Vintage would also probably be happy. Ridiculously loud.

How does it cope with guitars?[/quote]

In what way? Have seen guitar played through a GS412. Or how it comes across over loud guitar, check sig I guess, although that was studio trickery, it was all recordeed live, miced and di-ed with everyone playing in the room at once.

P.S. I want a shot when you get sorted![/quote]

I hadnt given matamp a thought. I might get on that once I can afford it all. And yeah, it does goes to 2ohms.

I thought you might want a go.....parasite!
