s_mcsleazy · #1 01-25-2011, 09:17 AM

so yeah i made a sugestion on the ashdown facebook page for them to make a 2x15 cab and heres what i got as a reply

Ashdown Engineering - In that case you'll probably be pleased to hear there is an ABM 215 coming into stock next week... :-)

so yeah just thought id let people know. ive asked about the impedence and price point but im guessing in the uk it shouldent be to bad

Heed this amp manufacturers: mcsleazy gets what mcsleazy wants.

You should get a commish on each one sold.

The world needs more 2x15s

I wish they would make a 2x15 in a smaller form factor like their mini 115 cabs. Almost everyone that makes a 215 cab decides to make it the same darn size as an 810. I would like a 215 that is like stacking two mini 15 cabs.

well ive got one of the mini 15's and i can honistly say it may be smaller but its verry heavy for a cab that small. but im still young so i think i can manage

although i do agree a mini 2x15 that could fit in a origional mini would be pretty cool

I stack my eden combo and 15 ext and it's smaller than 3/4 that size of most 2x15 cabs.

I would actually use a 215 if they would make a smaller form factor, again, like stacking two mini 15 cabs.

Just my wants and dreams lol.

They made one previously, ABM 2x15 in a 8x10 box. Did sort of want one next to my matching 8x10 once. One on UK ebay at the moment.

Ashdown is doing a 2x15?

That would be an awesome match with some of their new tube amps!

just got a little bit more word on the 2x15

Ashdown Engineering - Will be 4 ohm and around £550

seems like a good price

Is that (£550) more or less than the price of say a pair of 115 compacts on the Isles? We get decent prices on Ashdown gear up here as well,so this is sounding VERY good! And 4ohms too...Nice!

tbh i can actually get another compact for about £150 and considering i spent £130 on the one ive got then it doesnt seem like a amazing deal tbh

but id still consider buying the 2x15 (and not just to join the big cabs club)

Well that's good. I like Ashdown, and really like what they've been doing lately with those tube amps (I just wish I could afford them!), but I always thought they should have a 2x15.

Now if only Ampeg would make one, too.

would be some good fun watching the old titan up agains a younger force

btw i seen your 2x15 project

good work

Sartori · #20 01-25-2011, 03:41 PM

Yes, I think it'd probably be fun for somebody who could afford it (*coughTomBowluscough*) to A/B them.

Though, I'm more content right now than I have been for a long time in my gear, thanks to finishing that Sunn. The only thing now is, I want another one. Totally unnecessary, sure, but it would be awesome.

Thanks for the compliment about my project!
