Dude my mind is blown man!!

I need an extended 1x12 for a Soldano head or should I just do the 2x12?

Or do you think I should just do a 1x12

I am so excited man!! Biggest improvement I have ever heard!?

You are a wizard man!

Hi Trey,

The Radical 212H sounds fatter for sure, whilst the Radical 112SW will sound like the Reformer 112 but bigger/deeper rather than fatter (if that makes sense!)

You'll get more output from the 212 which could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how loud you need to be. And obviously more power handling from the 212 (assuming the same speakers) which is a good thing if you're using the 100W head but you'll be fine with that 50W Soldano with a V30 unless you're really pushing it.

So pleased you and your mates are so impressed!

Just wanna let you know. I received my 410. Played 1 rehearsal and used it for our show. This is by far the best cab I've used. Thank you for getting it to me in time for our last show of the year!!!!!

Hi Alex,

I'm still loving my Two10S you'll be glad to hear, and I'll get to try out a Four10 in a couple of weeks as part of a communal backline at a festival. This prospect is triggering some major GAS so thoughts are turning to the purchase of a second cab, but I have a doubt I hope you can clear up for me.

For context I pay in a five-piece covers band with vocals, guitar, bass, keys and drums. I usually play through either an Ashdown ABM 600 EVO IV or a Trace Elliot Elf head, depending on gig size, whether I can be arsed making two trips to the car, etc.

As I understand it as a layman, the ABM would put 600W into one cab at 4 ohms, but only 300W into two cabs at 8 ohms (both switched to 12 ohms). I appreciate that double the power ≠ double the volume, nominal impedance, and so on, but I'm struggling to understand what practical benefit having double the speakers with half the power might give, either for myself as the player or the audience, assuming the amp is run at full bore in both scenarios. Is the doubling up of the speakers the most important component?

I'm sure you get asked this question a lot so apologies for retreading old ground!

Kind regards 

Greg

Hi Greg,

That's a good question - and very very difficult to answer! Quick answer is that outdoors it probably helps quite a bit, indoors, not so much.

You could of course use the Ashdown to drive one cab and the Elf to drive the other, so when you'd have 600W for one and 200W for the other. Or you could add a Four10 and get 600W into a modular 6x10" stack. Glad you're loving the Two10S!

Best regards,

Alex

Guys-

I been out on the road the past 18 months with my band and the BB3 has been absolutely amazing. We've been using it for keys, particularly key bass and it sounds great every single night under so many different circumstances. 

Also, it sounds really good on baritone guitar. I know it's designed for bass but with a slight amount of EQ on the amp, it can sound great for baritone as well. 

I'll be buying another one soon.

Thanks,

Matt

Hello,

I recently purchased a used Uprising 212 and love it. It’s amazingly light and sounds great. Now I want a 112 cab. But I already have a scum back speaker I want to use in it. Do you sell the reformer without a speaker? I think it would be a cool combination.

Thanks

Matt

Hi Matt,

Glad you're loving the Uprising! You can absolutely get an unloaded Reformer to fit your own speaker of choice - here's the unloaded cab info:

Let me know if any of that isn't clear!

Thanks for these awesome speaker cabs!!

Hey Barefaced, 

Received the cabinet a week or so ago, took a while, but that isn’t a problem. DHL did good. I missed the first delivery but was at home for the next attempt. 

Had to wait for my speaker cable to arrive, so a little late getting back to you. Cab sounds great. When I cranked the volume loud (about 3/4) I got some natural overdrive which was the best sound I’ve ever heard. Need to figure out how to get that same tone at a lower volume. My amp (Demeter Bass 400D) doesn’t have a gain control. Any suggestions would be appreciated. 

Thanks, great doing business with you fine folks. Have a great summer!

And thank you for making incredibly wonderful bass cabinets. Here in Japan I frequently receive compliments about my sound because of you. 

From your biggest fan,
