Anyone still gig with a 1x15 anymore?
 

I have been pondering on getting a 4x10 cab...but then I remember how much I hated moving those things. I am thinking maybe I could get away with an 8 ohm 1x15. With my B2R I would get 250 Watts, and with my Acoustic B100 I would have an extra 15 to run it into.

Plus a 1x15 wouldn't be such a pain to haul around.

leave the b100 in the practice room, but a good 1x15 is a very cool thing.

two matching good 1x15s is rock and roll! (for me it's a pair of compact LDS cabs with eminence kappa As in them.)

I do. I have two Genz Benz Focus 115's, but I have never used them both yet. For small bar gigs I have just been using my GK MB200 into one Focus 115. I have an old Hartke 3500 head too, if I need more power.
The Focus isn't neo or anything, but at 46 lbs not too bad.



Full stack (so far just for looks)

Yep..SWR Son of Bertha 1-15 with a GK RB400 to drive it. Perfect for small to medium gigs.

Yes, I do most of my gigs with a Bag End S15 I.

I do a 115 cab all the time...wonderful :)

If you switch to 4x10 make sure you have enough power. Ur powering 4x as many speakers. I dont like powering 4x10's with anything less than a 350W amp.- thats just me. On the other hand you can get nice bass out of a 1x15 and 100W. If you try powering a 4x10 with ur B2R you have only 62.5 watts per speaker, which is fine but you will be wondering where ur low end went. because you have 4 speakers producing mids it can give you the illusion of thinning out in the low registers. Most guys who go from 15's to 10's always crank the bass up. I run a 15 and a 2x10 - best of both worlds. 2x10 or a 1x12 is alot easier than a 4x10 to move around.

I do many gigs with my Ampeg BA115HP.

Ashdown MAG with an Eminence Legend CB158

Sometimes but I prefer two.

Hartke LH500 or HA3500 with a Hartke HyDrive 115.

Finally got back into a promising band. Carvin BR115 powered by GK 800RB.

I use a Genz Benz Uber 115 or two all the time

I use one for big gigs and a 1x12 for normal ones.

I used to all a time. All I had was one EV TL606 cab with a EV 400w speaker.
Now I sometimes use one of my 2 3015 Eminence modded Ampeg PF115HE's.
Works great!

I have used all sorts of cabs over the years but the overwhelming majority of ny gigs have been with a single 15. Current rig is a GK MB500 and an Ashdown VS-115. I have two VS-115s, but have only used both once.

YES!
 

Not always, but more often than not these days I gig with an 8ohm 115 TL606 (KappaLite), or a 4 ohm Carvin 115 (vintage Carvin/Eminence ceramic driver).

I use a 115 combo, a Roland DB700, once a month at a little bistro gig I have. Works fine for that type of lower volume gig, with no PA support.

Been using an old GK 115 for a while, on bigger gigs it's fine as i run a DI.

But, im thinking about building a 215 cab. We have a medium sized acoustic gig that we do once a month, and since we only run the moniters as mains at this club i cant run through the board. I run my amp cranked to 90%+, and the cab is on the floor off stage left. Going 4 ohm would give me a little extra volume boost and a taller cab would get me up in the mix better. Right now i am thundergod of bass doom on the low end, but a little lacking in the mids and highs in most of that room.

Looks sure, but it also serves to get it up off the floor so you can hear yourself better.
