Barefaced Bass - Ultra lightweight high power bass guitar speaker cabinets

09/09/24 - Big Baby 2 + 3 - UK

Hi Alex, this is an odd question but, I have a Big Baby II. I’m getting a PA and have been advised that I will still need a sub even with 15” tops. I use the BB with a Crown 1000w PA amp, normally, bridged. Will I kill my cab if I use the amp and cab as a sub, for now?

Thanks. That cab is pretty damned awesome so don’t want to hurt it.

Hi Adrian,

As long as the cab is running clean then it'll be fine - the 12XN is designed to distort quite a lot before it blows (unless you're putting in a particularly unusual signal). What are your crossover and limiter settings going to be?

Best regards,

Alex

Alex!

Used the cab with a PA amp as a sub running from a monitor send last night for the first time. It was brilliant and tight. I sounded massive! Thank you,

Adrian
