There are a lot of great cabs out there. My preference is a fEARful cab, but I do gas for some of greenboy's other offerings. I would check out these:
Barefaced Bass
Audiokinesis Thunderchild
fEARful
fEARless
Greenboy cabs
Baer Amplification
Bill FitzMaurice
among many other designers that are doing something different (better) than big box commercial offerings.

Hence entirely validly answering with what is best for himself, as is everyone else's answer. Except mine, because I made it a bit unspecific. The Vintage/Super15 is best for me, but my requirements are a bit weird.

This is the Avatar B 112 delta. They make it just a few miles down the road from where I live. Great company and the cabinet is very reasonably priced and sounds perfect for me.Even the low B comes out like it should.The company has endless combinations of vinyl and grille cloths and piping.
I have two of those cabinets and love them so much I can't even imagine wanting anything different.  |

|  | Registered User | | | | | I am loving my Mesa/Boogie PowerHouse 2x15 EV cab! I agree is there is really no best cabinet though. There are many brands and styles of cabinet and each is different. What sucks for one may be great for another, it's all personal preference if ask me. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
