There is absolutely no way you couldn't do better than that for the money no matter what you are looking for.

"The inset side handles also make moving the cabinet more comfortable"

Yeah, 'more comfortable' is not 'comfortable'.

You could charge admission to watch you stack 2 of those. It would be one of the highlights for the evening, if not the last.

Looks impressive. Probably doesn't perform any better than more sensible cabs. Stupid to lug around.

After all, this bass speaker cab was designed to handle the powerful bass tones pumped out each night by Motörhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister.

I don't understand why a person wouldn't go the modular route with 15s. Just buy as many 1x15s as you want/can power and stack 'em up.

Lemmy's sig head is only 100 watts isn't it? This cab would have be be horribly underpowered by the matching head, as I've never seen a 15 that was rated for less than 100 watts.

Lemmy's roadie must have a forklift licence.

On a side note Lemmy's tone isn't exactly bass rich is it???

100 TUBE watts I believe. Which is night and day difference than solid state wattage.

(PS- It is ok to have amp head be rated at less than the speaker wattage!)

That thing is nearly as retarded as the crap Basson puts out... Once again, Marshall clearly misses the mark regarding bass amplification, IMO...

Poor execution of a bad idea.

my schroeder 1215L and genz benz shuttle 6.0 is loud enough for pretty much any size venue and the whole rig is 41 pounds. if you play a big place you're gonna go through the PA anyway which brings me to my main question: why?
