Even numbers of drivers outnumber odd numbers by 4:1.

a single 4x10 for me. I really wish I could find another identical one to make and 8x10 rig, but the exact model is hard to come by.

I'm a little surprised at the number of 2x15s. As of this writing there's as many of those as there are 810s. I wouldn't have expected that.
From statistical point of view you're only getting the answers from those that respond. If the 2 1x12" are at gigs or don't respond then...
Or I've noticed the big cab people are leaving them home...
Or what if just the metal 8x10 people choose to answer....
Or like a few of us, we gig something else so regularly that those drivers are the significant ones.

To the OP: I use 2 Aguilar GS112 cabs for lower volume gigs in small to medium sized rooms.

And I also have a Bergantino HT210/HT115 cab setup that's seen it's share of use over the years.
I prefer the Mesa 2-12" cabs these days for the louder gigs. I personally find them punchier and more focussed sounding compared to my Bergs.

FWIW I mainly play classic rock on a 6-string bass.

Demeter BSC212 = 2x12, 1x8
For a while, I thought it was a bit small, but I've been really digging it lately.
