What's the good word? I'm looking to bust my 6x10 into two cabs for portability reasons, and thinking hard about picking up the Carvin BR-210 and BR-410 cabs.
Decent cabs or terrible crap-fests?

*edit*
I see it now. When you click on the individual cabs and the page comes up, there's a "sticker" on the page that says "instant $100 rebate." Oh my...WHY did I click this post? Crap...
*wait a minute*
Still not right. Even w/the $100 instant rebate, the BR410 is $379. Still a good deal, but not $300 though.

They've got them in 8ohm, too.
Rat fur, no corner protectors . . . they're bare bones, for sure, but at $350 shipped, you just can't beat that deal.

I don't dig ratfur, though. If they had the tolex cab for that price I'd be all over it...like everyone else, I'm sure.  |

But hell, for that price, I'd consider buying one, strip the rat fur, slather on some DuraTex and nice cab corners, and rock that thing!
