Just a short note to say the Super Twin has blown me away. First gig last night, tone was perfect, our lead guitarist commented that he could hear everything clearly was very impressed. Load in and out was sooooo easy, I'm utterly astonished, thank you so much.

Alex Claber, you was right and I was wrong. I bought a fender rumble head 500 watts (4 ohms), end of november 2018, to paired with this cab and the amp was not enough loud (250 watts in 8 ohms). The recommandation of Alex was to paired the SM with the Orange terror bass which i didn't buy like i was supposed. At this moment, I just wanted to save $$$. The terror bass has the ability to put the amp in 8 ohms and the SM has 600 watts RMS to offer in 8 ohms. The result is totally unbelievably loud and clear and the high performance tweeter on the SM adding just what I need for the high frequencies. Finally, i sold the fender rumble and my new Orange works likes a dream for me. Next step is to test live but hahaha, I'm not afraid at all 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Thank you very much for your support Alex and Barefaced team !!!

I received the cab yesterday!

Waouh the first sessions have been so good!

It sounds incredible, no words, warm and clean and super powerful!

And I've got the feelings it's going to be better and better...

Thank you very much again ^__^

Love it :)

I’ve done a number of rehearsals it now with both of my bands and at gigs and it has performed flawlessly. I had thought that I would need at least two, but frankly it has been well loud enough on it’s own, even though my amp is essentially operating at 50% power into 8 ohms and i’m not pushing it at all.

I don’t need 2 but I want another :) I think the extra cab will give me a bit more dispersion and will also look great :)

One thing i’m still not sure about is that if anything the cab could do with a bit more bottom end wallop. I’m wondering if a super compact might be the way to go? Having said that I like the tweeter!

My Super Twin arrived  safe and sound a couple of weeks ago and had its first outing in The Atlantic Inn Porthleven last Saturday.

It sounded excellent !! and approved by the rest of the band including the Noisy Bugger with the broken ankle!

Many thanks for designing and manufacturing a superb cab.

I just realized that tomorrow (Dec. 15) marks the 1 year anniversary of receiving my very first Barefaced cabinet! On the eve of such a monumental celebration, I thought that it would be appropriate to contact you guys and express a few things. 

First and foremost--THANK YOU!!! My Barefaced Super Compact (C187) has been the best bass speaker cabinet that I've ever owned! I've used it consistently (pretty much exclusively) throughout the course of the entire year and on every single occasion, find myself grinning ear to ear with satisfaction and loving it even more! Without fail, on every single gig, someone will ask me about it. Everyone from bandmates to sound guys to audience members wants to know what it is and how "that" sound could come from such a compact package! The kicker is when I insist that they pick it up with one hand! You should see their faces! Love it every time!

Throughout the year, the cab has been tested at venues and volumes ranging the entire gamut--tiny, quiet loungy bar and restaurant gigs, full-on outdoor rock stages, medium-sized indoor club stages with full pro FOH, weddings, even an outdoor running marathon on the beach for 20,000 plus people! There was not a single instance when the Barefaced cabinet did not perform flawlessly! One of my favorite moments was during an all-day annual Surf music festival with a notorious exceptional backline, when my little Super Compact held its own against 2 15" bass cabinets, and 6 (yes, 6!) vintage JBL 15" guitar cabs! No one could believe it! Every bass player in the room wanted that cab!

I've used a lot of different gear over the course of my career, but I've never felt so supportive of any one company until Barefaced. Sometimes I just want to scream it from the rooftops!!! Barefaced make modern musical bass miracles. Period. I can't tell you how many people I've encouraged to visit the website, watch Alex's in-depth videos, and read the insightful, deep articles online. The company truly is a revelation! I really would like to do whatever I can to help promote the company. What is the best way? Continue to post on social media?

Now, the big question is....what should I get next??? Honestly, the Super Compact really covers just about any gig I could imagine. But, I want to continue to support the company and promote your amazing and revolutionary work. What I can potentially envision is a situation where I may need to push just a bit more air. Just a tad louder and bigger, if you will. The question is, do I add another Super Compact and make a stack? Do I go for the Super Twin? Or, do I opt to have an entirely different sound at my disposal and go for something (Four 10 or Six 10) that utilizes the 10" drivers? 

Just to reiterate...I play Surf primarily, along with a lot of Exotica/Lounge and favor a "retro" sound with very little high end and very warm, round bottom using Fender Precisions with flats and the tone rolled almost completely off. 

What do you think might be the next logical louder cab to have in my arsenal? Also, I've been wondering if you guys would ever consider covering a cab in blonde tolex? The backline of the aforementioned Surf festival with all the 15" speakers is exclusively blonde and I've always thought it would be so cool to have something that would match!

In closing...THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I cannot thank you enough for your amazing product! I am so beyond a satisfied customer! Please do not ever hesitate to ask if there's anything I can do to help you guys in any way. Alright, off to tonight's gig with my trusty Super Compact! (we're doing the entire Ventures Christmas album!) : )

Warmly and Sincerely,

I really enjoy the cab, the dispersion is great.. no more finding a sweet spot to be heard.

Indoor i've got more power then i can handle ;) (without getting feedback).

Can't wait for outdoor festivals next summer, should be a blast.

The clarity (tone) is also superb; something i really dig with double bass.

Thanks for the input on the HF; my double bass doesn't have allot of treble, that'll explain why i wont hear much difference.
