27/05/25 - Six10 - USA

I received my Six10 in November 2019 and I have only grown more and more fond of the sound, feel and (low) weight of this cabinet during the time I have owned it! My band (hardcore/punk) plays 50-60 dates per year and the Six10 is truly the cornerstone of my bass sound. I get compliments on my bass tone on nearly every gig we play. In fact, two bass playing mates of mine have recently ordered and received Big Twins after playing, and falling in love with my Six10!

Occasionally, when my band plays very small venues/stages, the Six10 is too large and I've had to resort to using a backline cab and my bass tone suffers horribly... and here's where I made a mistake! I decided to purchase a new GK212 Neo IV 212 to use for the small stage gigs, and after 5 gigs with it over the last year along with a few rehearsals, I've learned that I truly dislike the overly bright/clangy/hyped sound of the speakers... and unfortunately it's too late for me to return.

With the above said, I am wondering if you would consider selling me two of your 12XN drivers as I am hoping they can provide a bit of the warmth I get with my Six10?

Hi Todd,

The 12XN drivers definitely won't get you sound you love from the Six10, they're accurate, not warm. And we don't sell them on their own anyway.

What amp are you using? A Two10S could work rather well, and you'll be able to stack it with the Six10 for even bigger gigs.

Best regards,

Alex

Hi Alex,

For me, the Six10 is such a beautiful sounding cab, and it just sounds better and better when I am able to really push it (usually only at outdoor/festival gigs), that I can't imagine wanting or needing a Two10 on top.

My sense is to save up for the Three10 as it will save me 20lbs over the Six10 and still be able to keep up with the dual Orange 212's our guitar player insists on using for our 'smaller' gigs at pubs/bars ;-)

When you have a moment, please let me know your thoughts on the Three10

Thank you!

Hi Todd,

Yes, the Three10 plan sounds like a good one! If your guitarist cranks up his rig to the max (assuming he's using a big amp as well as two 2x12"s) you'll struggle to be heard - but by that point I think everyone in the venue will have told him to turn down.

Best regards,

Alex
