Thought I'd share the news with you guys.
Their amps sounded amazing.
Sorry if it's been posted before, couldn't find it in search.

Yeah.... it was posted pretty much as soon as the news came out.

Bad news, their cabs were kick ass.

I think Basson made an 8x10 that was about 240 lbs. I figure a Basson 4x10 would be more than 90 lbs.

I have a couple Ampeg PR-410HLF cabs that are 128 lbs each. That's probably why these cabs were discontinued.

Well, when you tell people you need 1000w to even run their 4x10, ya, I can see why they went out of business. And because their stuff weighed a ton!
