I was flabbergasted by how fast my cab arrived. About a whole month earlier than expected. Thank you, guys!
Also, it’s an incredible piece of gear. I absolutely fell in love with it and want to share that with the world.

following some troubleshooting and determining a fault with the crossover module:
Thaaaaaaaaank you, Alex!
It definitely was the module. I just replaced and tested the cab. It’s like I’ve added a whole new layer to the BB3. Now, I feel fully confident to take the BB3 as a single cab option to a gig. Before the fix, I would have missed the clarity in the upper spectrum. What was an amazing cab when not working correctly, is a monster now.
My 2nd cab is a Rheingold BA12. This cab has incredible clarity and “weight” in the upper mids-treble. Something I depend on with my looping rig. But the Rheingold just doesn’t deliver that low frequency energy. It kinda sounds like an electric bass played acoustically turned up. And if I add bass via an EQ, it’s starting to complain quicker than I’d like to admit. Forget playing octaver lines at a decent jam session volume.
Long story short, I feel the BB3 is the best out of both worlds (big bottom, crystal-like highs, and transparent mids to fill in the gap) and I’m so happy I found you. While I do watch all the SBL videos (including the Barefaced/speaker episode), I’m not sure it would’ve been enough to push me over the edge.
Having a bass player come to my venue (I’m an FOH engineer, as music has become too much of a pain to make a living with) with a Big Twin 3, playing a six-string with an octaver, convinced me that your speakers are like no other. FYI, I hardly had to use the PA for bass 😅
Barefaced cabs cannot only handle everything you throw at them, they also sound like I always wanted my bass to sound (bass to mic preamp to studio monitors).
Keep up the good work! And thanks again for your phenomenal customer support!
