24/09/25 - Super Compact - UK

I have a Messa Boogie D-800 amp and I use I believe a 1x12 Barefaced cabinet (Super Compact) which is 600W. I've owned these for the last 9 years and have been fantastic but just wondered if a different cabinet can be recommended that takes advantage of the full 800 watts of the amp?

Or does it not actually make a difference as most gigs I play the bass goes through a DI into the desk and I never have to turn the amp up that loud?

If you want to know how much power you're actually using, download a free dB meter app, set it to C or Z weighted and hold and put it on the ground 1m in front of your cab. Let me know what dB number it reads when you're playing at your loudest and I'll tell you how many watts that is.

Best regards,
