One10 / One10T
Regular price
£449.00
BIG sound, tiny cab. From hi-fi to old school. Freakishly loud and fat.
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.
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...
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.

Hi Alex, Issac and the Barefaced Team
Here is a photo of my Barefaced Rig with a Fender Rumble 800 HD amp.
It sounds incredible
Keep up the great work
Many thanks
Steve

Hi Alex
My Three10T with my new One10 sounds incredible.
I'm about to buy a Fender Rumble 800HD amp, I've noticed on the back of the amp it has a 8/4 ohm and 2 ohm switch. I presume I leave it in the 8/4 ohm position? How many watts would that run?
Many thanks,
Steve
-------------------------------------------
Hi Steve,
Yes, leave it in 8/4. It'll be about 800W with the full stack or with the Three10 on its own. If you were playing very hot sunny outdoor gigs I'd say switch it to 2 ohms then but you're in the UK so that's not going to be happening!
Best regards,
Alex

Hi team
I have two One10 speakers that are my 'go to' speakers for gigs. I love them. I'd like some advice on placement and stacking of them.
I sometimes put a small block of wood (approx 30mm) under the front of the speaker to tilt it up. This seems to help with clarity of sound depending on type of floor, covering and height of stage to audience. If I do this and I’m stacking two together, I'm thinking of angling the top speaker with a similar sized piece of wood on the rear of the top speaker to provide a flat surface for my amp to sit on. What would angling speakers in this orientation (as a single or stacked ) do to the sound from these speakers? Is it better to have them flat on the floor (pointing horizontal).When stacked having both flush front and vertical or can they be angled like this?
I'd be interested in your thoughts and advise on this.
Thank you
Chris
------------------------------------------------
Hi Chris,
The best thing with this stuff is to just experiment and trust your ears, whilst also questioning whether you're hearing what you want to hear because of assumptions (which may be inaccurate) and if you're really hearing what you think. Glad you're loving them!
Best regards,
Alex

Your/my speakers sound GREAT!!!
I have now played some concerts with the set-up, and I'm blown away.
Small speakers but HUGE sound.
Incredibly happy.

My new Barefaced One10 arrived this morning. It looks fantastic.
I was wondering, there is a tab at the bottom of the grill. Does it mean I can remove it if I wanted to? I didn’t want to try that before I asked you guys?
Many thanks,
Steve
------------------------------------
Hi Steve,
That's to take the grill off if the driver ever needs replacing or some fault-finding is required - but I don't recommend removing it for any other reason. Let us know how it sounds!
Best regards,
Alex

Good afternoon, I was wondering if I could trouble you for some advice?
I have a Barefaced One10 that I purchased in 2016 that I love. I was running an EBS Reidmar Head through it which has sadly died this week. I'm just looking into getting a replacement head and was wondering if a TC Electronic BAM200 Ultra-Compact 200 Watt Bass Head would work through it? (https://www.andertons.co.uk/
I'm not much of an expert when it comes to Wattage and the Ohms of Heads and Cabs and wanted to check whether this Head would be safe to use and what sort out Output I could get from it? Thanks for your time, any advice would be much appreciated.
Best wishes
Alan
--------------------------------------
Hi Alan,
It'll be fine to use, not as powerful as the Reidmar, maybe 150W into the One10. No harm ordering it and sending it back if you don't like it!
Best regards,
Alex

I have two One10’s which i run with my Ashdown Mag600.
Very happy.
An Ashdown Mag 900 has recently come my way which would be nice to use on bigger gigs.
This has two separate outputs which will both run loads down to 4ohm.
Amp can’t be bi-amped.
Just checking its OK to use either a Two10S (on 4ohm) or another pair of One10’s (in parallel).
I appreciate that a Two10 is 2” deeper than a One10.
Thanks
Andy
--------------------------------------
Hi Andy,
ABM 900 is two 600W-ish amps in one box so that'll be 4 ohms on each side, so could run a Two10S @ 4 on one side and two One10 cabs on the other side.
Best regards,
Alex

Hello, I recently purchased a used One10, and I really enjoy it.
Am I correct in viewing the Activier as a clean pre & power amp capable of powering two One10 cabinets? Can I plug my passive bass directly into the Activier and gig with it? Also, the utilitarian minimalism of the Zero k7 prototype is so wonderful.
I'm tempted to put down a deposit, but I worry that the amp will become bigger or more complex. Will you post updates as you develop it? Thank you.
David
------------------------------------------
Hi David,
Yes, you can plug any bass straight into the Activier. It's like a zero EQ amp head that's built into a cab. The Zero k7 is getting closer to production. We won't be making it bigger or more complex - we have a more complex sister amp which has all the extra EQ that some bassists prefer. The reason for the Zero's name was "zero EQ" and we've already moved quite far from that with bass and treble shelving and the high pass filter, so we'll not be adding more! Glad you're enjoying your One10!
Best regards,
Alex
10/07/23 - One10 - Ireland
Just to say, my Genz Benz Shuttle 9.2 Class-D amp, atop a stack of two One-10s, looks a pretty picture. And it stands the test of time on pub gigs here in Ireland.
I usually point one One10 towards the audience to get the juice of my amplification up close, the other One10 towards me as a kick-ass monitor, and the rest DI into the desk and over the PA, with some compression, and room eq if we are bothered haha...
I feel very lucky with my setup, if I'm honest. You guys are central to that experience, Barefaced...
Many thanks from Ireland,

2 years ago I bought a One10 from you. I love it, but wish that I had bought a One 10T. Do you sell a tweeter kit that I can install in my cabinet?
Thanks
Tom
------------------------------------------
Hi Tom,
Sorry, it isn't possible to retrofit our tweeter - almost all the panels are different on the One10T vs the One10 because of how the inside is changed to fit the tweeter in and mount in securely. The resale is pretty good on our cabs if you want to upgrade though!
Best regards,
Alex

I've used it on three gigs so far (jazz gigs with double bass) and I couldn't be happier. Punchy, balanced and does not fart when pushed, in a tiny and low weight package. And looks classy with the silver cloth front. What more could I ask for?
Thomas
17/10/24 - One10 - Italy
I'm seriously considering purchasing a second One10 to pair with the one I purchased a few months ago. After a few months of intensive use I can only say one thing: the cabinet sounds great and since it arrived I have no longer used the Schroeder, which I am now selling. The only limit is the amount of bass above a certain volume and for this reason I'm considering a second One10.
Marco
---------------------------------------
Hi Marco,
That's great to hear - and adding a second One10 will make a big difference in the amount of bass you can get when playing loud!

I was bored last night and hooked up my rig to the tv and watched a horror movie. It sounded so real I’m lucky the neighbours didn’t call the police

I got my Barefaced One10T this week and....it's AWESOME.
I love this thing. I am considering getting a second one, but I also wanted to reach out because right now I use a Mesa Boogie Subway D350 with the single One10T. At 8Ohm it's 175W which works well, however if I connected two One10T in parallel it will go to 4Ohm and 350W which I believe is a problem for the One10T at 8Ohm and 250W.
I was wondering if you have any recommendations for amps that work well with two One10 cabs in parallel? Often I'll just use the one, but having the option for two in parallel would be nice. I think that would cover most/all of my gigs.
Thanks,
Alexander
----------------------------------------
Hi Alexander,
If you connect two One10T cabs to the D350, then it will put out 175W into one cab and 175W into the other, so 350W total between both. It's a great fit! Glad you're loving the first one!
Best regards,
Alex

Hi,
I have ordered my second One10T from you guys but a friend just asked do you need to break in a new speaker? I didn't with the first I bought and wondered should I have ? Any advice would be grateful.
All the best,

Hi Si,
You don't need to but it will break-in as you use it: https://barefacedaudio.
That'll be a great little stack!

Hi Alex,
That’s awesome thank you, well this will be a great stack as I also have a One10 retro so with my EBS 752 (able to play a 2ohms) I am really looking forward to it.
You guys make some awesome cabs and well done on your success.

Hey there Alex and Tom and Isaac and the Barefaced team!
I ordered a One10T from you in 2022 and it is spectacular. I am finally ready to order a companion One10 (without the tweeter) to go with it. I have 2 questions:
1. I'm wondering about production time in general, since last time I ordered custom tolex and grill cloth, and this time I'm just going to order a straight up black tolex/silver grill cloth combo -- wondering if that will make it a little faster...?
2. Wondering if you all still use FedEx International Priority for orders from the US...? Last time I had to have you send it to a FedEx office location since our local delivery guy likes to leave packages out on the street. Happy to go through that process again, but just wondering if that's changed.
Thank you so much! I am so proud to be a Barefaced artist -- I can't do a single show without people asking me about my cab and where it comes from. (It's especially amusing if I let them pick it up.) Hope you all are good over there.
Looking forward to cab #2!
Wil
--------------------------------------
Hi Wil,
Here's the current lead times: https://barefacedaudio.
We use DHL nowadays, they've been much better than FedEx!
Glad you're loving the cab so much and glad people are noticing!

Hi,
I’ve been using the cab for 2 concerts, and before the third one it has started to make a sort of loud electrical/digital distortion when I play? The noise is not constant, only when I play a note, and is as loud as the note I play, så it gets louder if I turn up the volume (vice versa).
I’ve been trying to connect different amps heads to different instruments, so the issue is in the cab.
Do you have any idea what it could be, and how we can fix it?
Nicolai

Hi Alex,
The cabinet rocks. Very pleased with the output of a single 10 and very happy with running the 2 -10” singles together. It’s as least as big a sound as the BB3, to my ear anyway. I do get more wattage out of my amp driving the 2-8ohm = 4ohm 10s than the 8ohm BB3 12, maybe that’s it? Dunno. Could be my imagination.
Down the road, I think I will have to replace the Big Twin, though. Stay tuned.
Randy
--------
Hi Randy,
Glad it's sounding good! Yes, two 10CR has similar output to one 12XN - the latter will do more if you want a totally clean sound, the former will do more if you're ok with more colouration and/or have less amp power.
Alex
10/07/24 - Big Baby 2 + One10 - UK
I've been using 2 x BB2 cabs for gigs and 2 x One10s for rehearsals - very happy with both. There are however some changes ahead and wanted to ask your opinion if you have time... I have a new amp coming (not yours, although I've joined the queue too) and it has the option to go to 2ohm, it's a Jad Freer Coda 800w Power Amp. Since we have PA support with a subwoofer, and space is limited I have had to reduce to 1 x BB2. Mostly this is enough, but last week I did a gig in a small venue with the 2 One10s and it sounded pretty powerful and was a breeze for fitting in the car with all the other kit. I did feel I may have been driving then a tad hard with my GR Pure Amp 800w power amp, but then the Jad Freer preamp I'm using has a bit of grit, so.... So here is the crux of it. With the new amp, would I be able to drive three One10s at the 2ohm setting? ( I'd be ordering a One10 T)I see a number of people with this arrangement, but despite reading all your info I'm still baffled by the Ohm thing, well when it goes below 4 anyhow.
The three One10s would easily fit in the car with the sub giving me a bit more spread... or will it? One last thing, with your new ZeroK 7 what cab combinations would you be recommending - this may answer my question above too. Sorry for waffling, but in fairness I have had to watch your videos so you can't complain ha ha ha All the best Awesome cabs btw, never been happier.
Tim
--------
Hi Tim,
I'd almost always make the decision based on tone - the 12XN and 10CR are quite different.
But if your amp is 2 ohm stable then you can run up to four One10 cabs, and each one you add will increase the max output and how big the rig sounds. With the Zero k7 it's the same, you can run up to four 10CR or four 12XN with all parallel wiring, or more with series/parallel (like in a Six10 or Eight10 or Four10+Two10S stack).
Glad you're loving the cabs!
Best regards,
Alex
01/07/24 - Three10 + One10W - USA
Just received the cabinet and it looks amazing. I was wondering which driver this has in it?
Is it the same driver as in my three10 so I can run these together?
This setup sounds amazing by the way!
Best Regards
Joe
--------
Hi Joe,
It has the same driver as your Three10, to make a modular 4x10CRA with the power shared equally between the drivers and the amp seeing a 4 ohm nominal load.
Glad it’s looking good to you!

Alex

10/06/24 - One10 - UK
I use a pair of One10s as a mini stack - and very fine they are, too. However, I was thinking about changing amp to an EBS Reidmar 502 - will this play nicely (and safely) with the One10s? I suspect the answer is yes, but I'm paranoid and don't want to risk damaging my cabinets. Therefore, I'd be grateful for your view. I've included a link to the EBS website.
Many thanks

Hi Alan,
Glad you're enjoying them! Why are you planning to change amp, is your current one not doing what you need? That amp will be fine though!

30/05/24 - Upsetter / One10 - UK
I already have an Upsetter with a speaker rated at 60w @ 8ohms. With your activier amp is that rated at 100w into 8 and therefore safe to use with this cab?
Can they be retrofitted?
Thanks
Steve
---------------------------------
Hi Steve,
Unfortunately they can't be retrofitted but you can use your current cab as an extension speaker for more output or stereo. Our experience regarding power ratings with solidstate amps is that you're absolutely fine using an amp rated at double the speaker's power, as that gives you 3dB of clean headroom even when cranked. As always with amps and speakers, you can't 100% guarantee that something won't get blown but the risks are no greater than using lower power valve amps because valve amps can be pushed so much harder and still sound good, which raises the average power level and it's the average power level that overheats and kills speakers.
Best regards,
Alex
-----------------------------------
Hi Alex,
Thanks very much for this. I don't need another guitar cab at the moment, the one is enough for my needs. I think I may go for an Orange PedalBaby as I have what I need in terms of pedals and a valve pre-amp.I'm still loving my 2 OneTens and this Upsetter too! I have been running the Upsetter from my Vox MV50 clean (pedals in front for the sound) which was loud enough for a large hall gig but it's been a bit unreliable and I need to upgrade.
Thanks again for your prompt response.

I live in NZ and I own a fabulous 1x10 Barefaced cab. I will be in the Uk in June and wondered if could visit you guys in Brighton because I want to buy another 1x10.
There is a waiting time I know but if I order it when I come over, it could be shipped by the time I return to NZ in Early August.
Besides which I would love to see the place myself.
You mentioned you are in the planning stages for a bass amp (for double bass?) How is that coming along?
I have a 1990’s Walter woods 100 watt amp and with 2x 10” cabs….well!
Steven
Hi Steven,
Yes, no problem, let us know when you're coming. The lead time isn't that long now that we're fully stocked with 10CR drivers again. Bass amp is making progress, I was testing it yesterday! Still plenty to do though... Glad you're loving your One10!

22/05/24 - One10 - USA
Hi Alex,
As I stated in previous email, I am enjoying my 1 x 10. I currently only have a Bergantino forte d amp, which I would like to save for bigger situations than practice and lessons and small group stuff. Do you have a recommendation, preference, suggestion for a portable / compact amp that would pair well with the 10?
BTW, I sold my Big Twin 3 this morning which I bought in 2022 and even after providing free shipping and packing (and the fees r*ping from Reverb) still made my purchase price back and a little extra. So definitely held its value! It was just way more cab than I would ever need. Still have my BB3 and love it.
OK, thanks!
Best,
Randy
Hi Randy,
26/04/24 - One10 - USA
DHL just delivered my little cab. Gave it a brief audition and it absolutely rocks. I believe I like it better than my BB3 and my BT3…plenty loud for practice and will be perfect for small ensemble / group lesson and it sounds just great.
Sonically maybe the bigger FRFR cabs (to my ears) are a little harsh irrespective of tweeter settings…I may have to get another one of these little guys, it sounds just right to me. (Or maybe a Three10)
Randy

Hi, I just wanted to say a massive thank you for getting the cab built and delivered in such a short space of time, it arrived yesterday so I've even got a bit of time to start playing it in before the weekend.
Thanks again for the great service, you guys are great.

Dear Barefaced,
Many many many thanks. You are all brilliant. My new One10 arrived today, and it smells beautiful. Not only that it sounds superb. Absolutely fantastic service. With the delays of the 10CRs coming from the States, I wasn't expecting it for a month or two, but here it is....and I'm absolutely over the moon. Once again I'm so grateful to for pulling the stops out. You're the best.

08/03/24 - One10T - UK
Hi Alex
Have had the One10T for a while now and really liking the tone difference compared to the 12XN cabs I have.
Whilst having a play around the other day I tried running the One10 and the Super Midget together as a stack and they sounded great - the best of both worlds!
My question however - is there any detriment to running the mix of speaker sizes together (i.e. - would the 10 get worked much harder than the 12 at higher volumes and could I potentially harm one of the drivers?).
Using an Aguilar AG700 currently.
Thanks in advance
Steve

The cab is awesome, as usual. I use it weekly at rehearsal with my pre amp power amp gear. The dinky 5mm amp I bought just for home practice and pedal testing.
PS I'm still loving my SC too I haven't considered another cab since buying it years ago from you. Well, ok, maybe considering a 2nd SC to make a modular ST!

I currently have a One10 and Four10 i’m using with an Aguilar AG700 and Noble Preamp. I love the sound and tones I can get from it. I have an Ampeg PF-20T incoming that should pair nicely with the One10 for a smaller rig. I’d like to get an Ampeg Heritage SVT at some point and they only run at 4 and 2 ohms, so i’d need to couple the Four10 with a Two10 in order to run it (or just a Two10 on its own at 4 ohms). I also like the idea of have 2 One10’s for a nice 4 ohm stack.
Thanks for your help. I love the cabs.

Hi, I'm pleased with the One10 I have, so easy to carry and set up. However, I'm now playing in a rock covers band and finding that I have to go pretty loud to get through, particularly in medium/larger clubs with stages etc. And then the tone seems to suffer. I have a Darkglass 500 head.
What is the best way to go? Lightweight is important! A second One10, a Two10? Or something different? I think I'd like a fatter low end, but with maybe a bit sharper top end when some numbers need it. Tweeter?
Oh, what is the best placement for the one10 in gig situations. I'm always at the back with everyone stood in front with the one10 on the floor. Would it be better to raise the speaker on a (small) stand, or is floor resonance useful?

Hi Bill,
A rock covers band sounds pretty loud for a single One10! Adding a One10T will make it fatter and louder and give more treble brightness. Where to place the cab depends on the room and situation. You generally want at least one solid room boundary nearby (floor or solid wall), more nearby solid boundaries give more lows, fewer cost you lows.

My One10 arrived earlier this week. On arrival I found the box to be dented quite a bit. The cabinet however has not suffered any damage at all thanks to the superb packaging. That really payed off so compliments for that!
What a gem that little One10 is! I tried it out at home with a Crate Power Block which isn´t even a bass amp but it gives me an idea of what a powerhouse this cabinet is. Next week I will take it to our rehearsal room and introduce it to my Eden top. I expect it to be a revelating event.
Thank you so much for your service Alex, I´m a happy camper!
Best regards,

Yes they sound great, just the look which is a little unusual :)

I have been using my 2x10 and 1x10T for the last year or so, they are both stunning!
Is there any chance of a 2x10T? Or a modification?
I didn’t think I would ever be asking for a tweeter, but the 1x10T is very usable,
I miss that now when using the 2x10 on it’s own.
All the best, keep up the incredible work!
Matt.

Cab arrived a few weeks ago and it’s fantastic: small, light (fits great in my Fiesta!)
and most importantly it sounds great. Have played a couple of gigs now, many positive comments, in particular one guy who said, “you can hear you fine even at the back of the room”, and that’s versus the rest of the big band!
Thought you might also appreciate the attached of my super portable rig with another sonic marvel, my LX Minis, which I only came aware of thanks to your guitar cab blog. I was inspired to build some and now I never need to buy speakers ever again.
When funds and need allows, I’ll probably have to get another One10. Thanks again and I’ll do my best to spread the word about your cabs.

Gentlemen,
You've made both the bassist and senior citizen in me very, very happy.
It’s a very punchy, clean and full sounding cabinet that has been perfect for my kind of playing situations.. and then there’s the weight.
Thank you big time!!

I know it’s a One10 but my goodness it’s smaller than expected, there is a lot coming out of that little box, worth 2 kidneys not 1!

Just got my One10!! Where do these deep lows come from?!? I'm still afraid to push it too hard since I'm using a 500W head but damn it's sounding good

Just dropping a line to let you know that I had my first band experience with my One10 yesterday. Alex, this cabinet is perfect!
So far I had been using it on my own, for practice and I loved its sound. But yesterday in the jazz workshop was a revelation. The sound is incredibly homogeneous across the frequency range. Each note is tight, full-bodied, punchy, clear and accurate. I was playing my Hervé Prudent five-string Lolita electric double bass through an Ampeg PF-350.
You've found the perfect formula! I had never heard that sound in real life (I had on recordings but not in real life). I just had to roll off the bass to 10 o'clock and add a little mid on the PF-350 EQ
I realize I had been trying to achieve this sound with my generation one Big Baby (no tweeter) and it took me quite a lot of tweaking: switching the midrange driver to "flat", fitting my Markbass MoMark with a tube preamp, fiddling a lot with the EQ (quite a challenge for me: a four-band EQ including two semi-parametric!).
With the One10 it's all here, easy and straightforward. Congratulations and deep thanks Alex!

Picked up this today. Was not prepared for the punch it packs. Even with the low A of a Dingwall NG3 it handles great. Can’t wait to gig with this!

Cabs arrived this morning safe and sound. I love the tone! Cant wait to use them on gigs this week. I think I’m more of the coloured tone type, these have the right amount of honk that I like to my ears compared to the Big Baby 2. Will let you know my thoughts after my gigs.
With a few gigs done, I’m totally stoked! The tone they have meets the tone I have in my head more than any other cab I’ve owned, including my two Big Baby II's. The rest of the band all commented on how they love the new One10's. Big and tight bass, great mids that cut and are defined. The mellow top is not a problem, as I can push the tops on my Bass preamp if needed. So with two One10's, Aguilar TH500, Sadowsky Bass, my sound is really happening. I think I'll have to consider moving on my two Big Baby II's as at the moment I cant see myself going back to them, most of my gigs have PA support, It’s really only if I have a large outdoor gig that I might need something bigger speaker wise. I haven’t had to push the amp too hard so far. Have you had feedback/experience with two One10's stacked on a really big stage? I’m wondering where the tipping point for needing bigger cabs is with this mini stack. Keen to hear your response. Thanks, so happy!

I have tried the Barefaced 10 inch cab with my double bass and I am really amazed at the sound quality and the way the low frequency project.
I think more people should know about your great products.
