BIG sound, tiny cab. From hi-fi to old school. Freakishly loud and fat.

And now also available as an active version!

When we launched the One10 in 2015 it blew everyone away - no-one expects a cab this small to have such a huge warm sound, or go so loud. It's very versatile tonally because the 10CR250 driver has amazing treble extension with cone output running to almost 6kHz and dome output to 10kHz+.

If you want sparkly clean tweetery sounds we have the One10T version: You know that thing you like about great 4x10" + tweeter designs - the big fat lows, the dynamic response, the smooth mids with tons of treble clarity. It's that. But with far wider dispersion around the room so you don't have to stand in one spot to hear your tone. And it's less than a quarter the size and a fraction of the weight - but two of these will outperform most 410s, especially classic models.

What about upright bassists and doublers? Depending on your pickup/bass pairing, you can either go with the One10 or the One10T with the extra acoustic vibes from the tweeter's open airy tones. The better your pickup/mic set-up, the more you can turn the HF control up for a proper dose of finger on string reality. Some double basses / pickups need mellowing out in the highs so for them you can keep it simple and stick with the One10.

Activier 1 and 2 versions:

We are so thrilled with the real world power our Activier module has and how loud it can push a One10. Although we rate both the Activier 1 and 2 as 200W/ch into 4 ohms, it has so much headroom for peak and burst power vs its RMS rating that with head to head comparisons vs well respected 500W class D amps it's only about 1dB behind on max SPL when driving a One10. This would suggest that the peak/burst power is comparable to amps rated at ~250W into 8 ohms.

The Activier 1 is mono, so one input, one volume knob, one extension speaker out (connect up to two more 8 ohm cabs or one 4 ohm extension cab for more output).

The Activier 2 is stereo, so two inputs, two volume knobs, two extension speaker outs. On the Activier 2 One10(T) power amp channel 1 is connected to the internal speaker and extension speakon out 1. Power amp channel 2 is only connected to extension speakon out 2 - connect a second cab for stereo use, ideally a matching but passive One10(T).

Activier One10T crossover/HF control:

The Activier One10T is a very small cab with a LOT to fit inside it - instead of the large rotary L-pad as on the passive version, we're fitting a four step HF control similar to the one on the Activier Reality 112FR. This uses two toggle switches which work together to give you tweeter off, -3dB, 0dB, and +3dB tweeter loudness settings. Really intuitive to use and gives plenty of tonal control.

Top-hat customisation for stand-mounting:

If you want to use your One10T cabs as a tiny and very cute PA system (particularly if you go with cloth grills and/or custom tolex), add this customisation to your order. For a stereo PA you can use two passive One10T with an external stereo power amp, one Activier 2 One10T plus a passive One10T slave cab, or two Activier 1 One10T cabs.

Some double (upright) bassists like to pole-mount their One10(T) for better midrange audibility in dense mixes but as with all speakers, the further you lift them from the floor, the less low frequency reinforcement you get from the floor boundary reflection. You can test this by lifting any cab you own off the floor and hearing how it sounds. A solid rear or side wall can replace the floor's boundary reinforcement though!

Existing Barefaced owners - here's some ways this can pair up:

It's a perfect match for a One10 to make a two cab stack. If you have a Two10S and an amp that runs down to 2.7 ohm you can make a 3x10CR vertical stack. If you have a Four10, Six10 or Eight10 then a One10 or One10T is best used separately - but is a great way to get your big rig tone in less LOUD scenarios. If you have a 1x12XN or 2x12XN cab (from Super Midget to Big Twin 3) then a One10 or One10T is a great lower volume full-range alternative - the inherent fatness does good things when Fletcher-Munson isn't being so kind to your tone...

And if already own one or two passive One10(T) cabs, an Activier One10(T) can drive those too, simplifying your rig as you can leave your amp behind. There are also options for doing more eccentric things with clean/dirty or dry/wet mixes with an Activier 2 cab and various combinations of guitar or bass cabs - email us if you want to discuss anything.

Extra-wide "landscape" version for Three10+One10W stack:

At extra cost we can make you a wider landscape version of the One10 to stack on your Three10, loaded with a single 10CRA driver for 12 ohm nominal impedance. The One10W+Three10 stack is essentially a modular version of the 4 ohm Four10 and will go properly LOUD. When used on its own the One10W's 12 ohm impedance will reduce a 500W @ 4 ohm head's max power to about 200W (@ 12 ohm). Go here to add this customisation.

I've been using these two one10s for six years now and they've been absolutely fantastic. I'd never consider another brand of cabs now (which is why I'm really hoping I've not buggered this one...)

Got my 2 One10 cabs back in December. Finally played a couple of outdoor gigs recently and am very happy with the sound and portability of the cabs.

I can take one to church or school gigs and fill up a gymnasium. Both cabs with a 300w head have more than enough volume for a medium loud rock band outdoors. We use PA support for the blend, don’t need it for volume.

Everyone is amazed that these feather weight cans can sound so good and play so loudly.

Extremely happy with my purchase.

So this puppy came to my door today. Egg box for reference 🙃

MUCH louder than I thought I would be.

So with this and my super twin T, I’m set for anything 🥳

23/05/26 - Activier One10 - France

I'm late to tell you I received the cab and took some time to discover it.

It's great! I'm learning to play the bass, started 9 monthes ago. I can hear everything I play even plugged direct with a passive bass.

I have heard so many great things, I was convinced before my purchase. Now, I understand all the great words about your products.

Thank you again.

Flippin ‘eck! Monstrous! The pound-four-pound bass cab champ! Blows the proverbial out of my Mark 4x10 on just about every metric.

I am in love with it, all my basses again and bass playing generally.

Thank you all so much, Barefaced Bunch. I shall be singing your praises to the rafters to anyone who can hear me above all that power and swagger…

Very best wishes

18/05/26 - Activier One10T / Big Baby 3 - Canada

This little fella (10tSAP) arrived the other day and is a welcome addition to the family. Although I dont think anything can replace the BB3’s the 10t is amazing. I knew the dimensions on paper when purchased but until it arrived never quite realized how little it is. All that being said I love the BB3’s but I did get tired of lugging a 30lb cab with a 35lb power amp, a bass strapped to my back and a back pack strapped to my front (let alone both cabs) for small shows and practices.

The day it arrived I took it to a practice to break it in. It kept up nicely with the guitars and drummer (a mellow/chill technical drummer). They teased me a little about how small it was but halfway through all were amazed at how full, rich and warm this little beast was.

A few days later played it at a church service next to a grand piano and mic’ed voices and it more than filled the large space and arched ceilings beautifully.

When I spend allot of money I almost never say thank you but again after another Barefaced purchase I have to say thank you guys. Its rare now a days to spend money and actually feel satisfied with the exchange. Thank you fellows for exceeding expectations once again.

Hiya, I have the marvellous One10 cab and wanted to have the Activier version...

Wondering if you could supply the unit and I can have an expert fit it? or do I have to sell and buy fresh? How's the waiting time?

Thanks

Roderick

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Roderick,

Glad you're loving your One10! The active version has a lot of changes vs the passive one so it wouldn't be possible to retrofit. However you can use your passive One10 as an extension cab for a One10 Activier to give you a mini active 2x10CR stack.

Here's our current lead times: https://barefacedaudio.com/pages/production-and-delivery-times

I play through a Genz-Benz Streamliner 600 into a single One10CR. Utterly brilliant but I want to expand a little. I’m thinking of replacing my old-dodgy GK Fusion 800s with a new version for a punchy alternative amp. Shall I get a 2nd 10CR, a 10T, or move to one of your 12XR as a different style —OR not buy an amp at all but one of your powered cabs?? I now play a 5 String Overwater Progress IV in a 4-piece (2 acoustics/cajon/bass) Americana/Country/Rock/Blues/Latin - quite Rocky at times(AC/DC You Shook Me…)

Roger

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Roger,

Do you want more of the same vibe (the extra cab will make it louder and fatter) or would you like some different tones?

Best regards,

Alex

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I liked the punch, clarity and detail I had with the GK amp as an alternative. My playing is getting a bit more accurate, so perhaps that is starting to appeal.

Thanks for your reply, Alex

Roger

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A Super Compact T or for even more accuracy a Big Baby 3 would be a nice way to go then!

22/01/26 - Activier One10T - Austria

Dear Alex, Isaac, and The Barefaced Team!

I received the One10T active last week.

I was disappointed for the first five minutes, but then the round, powerful, three-dimensional sound came through. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the information from the instruction manual on the Barefaced website beforehand.

“Your cab has a high-power driver that takes time to loosen up. It will get deeper, fatter, smoother, and cleaner sounding after some loud use.”

The sound is also wonderful in a band context.

I think there will soon be an expansion with one of your 12XN bass cabs.

And by the way, the One10T looks great too.

Thank you very much, and continued success.

One more question: Can I combine the One10T with my Markbass CMB 150 Black Line? And if so, what cable do I need?

Matthias

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Matthias,

You can use your Markbass combo with the Activier if you go via the Markbass amp and take cable from the FX send to the Activier. Or if there's a speaker input socket on the combo you can use the Activier to drive the combo's internal speaker. What were you planning to pair them for?

Best regards,

Alex

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Alex, thank you very much for your reply.

I'm not a very experienced bass player yet, so I want to try out all the combinations I can - there was no particular reason. As a result, I can tell you that the combination doesn't work well. I'll use both cabs solo, and as I said, the Activier One 10T is fantastic.

However, I'm sure I'll want to buy a Super Mini T soon, not because I need more power at the moment, but simply to try out different cabs and have expansion options if necessary.

Best regards and continued success.

Matthias

23/01/26 - One10 - UK

Keep up the good work.

Dieter

07/01/26 - Activier One10 - UK

I’m so sorry but I’m afraid the Activier isn’t going to work for me.

Unfortunately I cannot get to the volume I need without a second cabinet which sadly was not the goal.

Richard

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Richard,

Not a problem! How loud a situation did you find it working well in and when did it max out for you? How was it loudness-wise when using a second cab (was that the Super Twin)? It all helps us advise future customers on what this little active cab can do (and what it can't!)

Best regards,

Alex

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Alex

Thanks for the reply.

I found that the nearer to max volume I got, on its own the cab started to distort. So when really pushed it just sounded kind of boxy and not nice. I experienced similar if I pushed the bass level in either the guitar pre-amp or the pre-amp pedal.

At say 3/4 volume things were a lot better and I liked what I got but this did not work in my band with a couple of loud guitarists. The drummer uses an electric kit so no issues with him, though I expect a traditional kit would have life harder for me.

When hooked up to the super twin, I’d say I ran the Activier somewhere between a third and half the volume control and I was plenty loud enough.

If you would like, I can bring my bass and pre-amp pedal over so you can hear for yourself.

I am a massive fan of your products and so I want you to be as successful as possible. I wonder what a 350 Watt amp in a Two10 might be capable of 🤘

Cheers,

Richard

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Richard,

That makes total sense to me! It's quite funny how the Activier One10T has developed, because I designed the 10CR speaker for the the Six10 and then it's accompanying Two10. Quite a lot of people had to persuade me to make the One10 but I'm glad they did because it's proven very popular and plenty loud enough for a surprising amount of bassists. And the One10 didn't have a tweeter option until recently, because the 10CR goes high on its own and its meant to be more coloured sounding anyway - but people kept asking so we tried it and it worked much better than I was expecting. The Activier was designed for guitar, not bass, but again someone wanted an active version of the One10T so we made one and it was way better than I was expecting, much more capable!

I've rehearsed with an Activier One10T (bass, drums, vocals, no guitarists) and it's not loud enough for me - it worked but only by virtue of the loudest moments also involving lots of distortion which blended nicely with the sound of the 10CR overdriving. But I do play really loud! ;-)

We're actually doing an Activier Two10ST for someone at the moment, and I know we've got people gigging with an Activier driving two or three One10 cabs in (moderately loud) rock bands. But there's more powerful active stuff in the works...

Best regards,

Alex

17/12/25 - One10 - USA

Again at the prestigious[*] Alf's, where the stage includes convenient folding chairs... I finally got the courage to only bring in one One10. It was more than enough, of course. The speaker cab is now the smallest thing I bring.

... when is the all-tube Activier shipping? 😉

*Not sure how prestigious it actually is

Thomas

Yesterday I had a second outdoor gig with this acoustic battery powered setup (electric bass is just a backup), and I was told by many people that I had a great warm and well defined tone. After the soundcheck one guy approached me and he was surprised how a tone like this can come from this tiny rig. Well done Barefaced, and also Warwick and Ibanez!

Matej

They can be used upright too on a hard surface, but I find a warmer sound when used on the side on a carpeted stage.

06/11/25 - One10T - USA

I am a jazz bassist based in Seattle (see: jazzbassist.com) I bought a One10T bass cabinet and cover from you a while ago and I absolutely LOVE this speaker.

I play upright bass through it with a variety of amp heads. I have been thinking about adding another 10" cab to my rig for certain venues. What do you think about adding another 10" without a tweeter or might you suggest a second 10T would be better for balance? I am also a little worried about the tariff situation for sending to the US. It may add an undesired cost to the cabinet at my end.

Any thoughts about this?

Thanks,

Jeff

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Jeff,

Glad you're loving it! How do you set the tweeter on the One10T now?

Regarding tariffs, they add about 10% to the cost - annoying but hopefully not a dealbreaker with how good our cabs are!

Best regards,

Alex

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Alex,

I usually have the tweeter set about midway on the One10T. That works fine in most settings for me.

Jeff

14/10/25 - One10 - USA

I'm intrigued by the Activier cab for bass although my barefaced cab is still making me money. Just wanted to know if I can slave my one can I have in with the Active one?

As you know I love my cab and wouldn't trade it for anything. I recently found out there's someone else in New Orleans with a cab. Minus the white Snakeskin of course.

Thanks

Robert

Hi Robert,

Yes, the Activier One10 can drive up to two passive One10s! Glad you're still loving yours!

I have a very early One10 and I think the only things holding the Tolex on are the corner caps. Two questions: What glue would you advise me to use to stick the Tolex back on, and what would you charge me for you to re-Tolex the cab?

Cheers,

Chris

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Chris,

We can send you some of our "jelly glue" to reglue it. Unfortunately it isn't possible for us to retolex your cab, it would cost more than building a whole new one! Hope it's sounding good despite this issue.

Best regards,

Alex

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My Barefaced cabs have been making me sound good for the last 11 years. I use combinations of a Super Compact, Super Mini and BB2 and 2x One10's. All with Aguilar amps. The compliments keep coming.

Chris

30/08/25 - Two10 + One10 - Sweden

I got the Two10 about three months ago, and I am getting tired of lugging it back and forth to the rehearsing space - because I cannot be without this sound - so I decided to get a One10 for home practice. And maybe even for a stack if we have a HIGH volume gig.

I have to say, the Two10 has blown away me, the drummer, and everybody else in the band. It is almost a bit silly, but it has opened up a new door for me, creatively on the bass guitar. So thanks for making good gear!

Tomas

27/08/25 - Activier One10T - USA

Pinky sounds fantastic. Better, and seemingly louder than the D400 I'd been using with my passive One10. Connecting my Two10 to the Activier sounded just monstrous. Just really the best (and prettiest) piece of kit Ive purchased in a long time.

Andrew

20/08/25 - Activier One10 - UK

Hi Alex,

First of all, many thanks for sending me the Activier ahead of schedule. I’ve been waiting to give it a try in real life setting before getting back to you.

This is going to be a tale of two halves and I am looking for some advice in all honesty! In my small office at home, I found that the Activier was really good, mounted on a PA stand it was giving a good sound and with a nice bass presence and was working well with HX Stomp with amp models and various effects such as chorus, octave and distortion. Tonight was the first time that I was able to play in a medium sized hall, with drummer and (a ridiculously loud) guitarist! The first thing I noticed was how responsive the Activier was - it responds to individual dynamics more than any other amp I have used. I am happier playing with my fingers but the Activier seems to love a plectrum as this gives a punchier sound and feel. However, I found that the Activier lost its presence and despite changing my amp model in HX Stomp and various effects, the Activier sounded (to me) very much in the middle range. Now, I appreciate the size of the cab and what I was asking it to do and I am recognising the physical limitations and I was pushing the Activier to it’s maximum level but the question I have is how do I get more presence from the Activier whilst also not driving it so hard. I guess that adding another One10 would allow for a bigger sound and more presence - do you have any other thoughts?

I know that so much is individual taster and that is very hard to diagnose in an email but if you could give that some thought and get back to me that would be appreciated.

Thanks

David

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi David,

A medium-sized hall and a ridiculously loud guitarist is an impossible job for a single One10 (and for most non-Barefaced cabs two or three times as large). Adding a second One10 or a Two10S will help a lot!

Best regards,

Alex

Hi Alex,

Just wanted to say how pleased I am with my 2x One10 speakers.

I have a small (350W) Taurus amp from Poland with built in phantom power for my DPA 4099 microphone on the double bass. The sound is all I have worked towards for years. Warm, fat and rich: just the sound of my instrument, with volume. Delightful.

It was a pleasure meeting you in your workshop too.

Cheers

Steven
