Epifani UL2-115 vs Thunderchild 12

Sign in to disble this ad
Looking for a single cab that would do moderate volume situations. I have an Epifani UL-115 and like it but I'm looking to get a cab that is smaller and do 4 ohm. GB Streamliner 600 would be the amp of choice. Looking for tone and volume comparisons between these 2 cabs only. Love the roundness of the Epi single 15 but the clips of the GB and TC thanks to Ken,
make me think it would be a great combo. Play fingerstyle only
everything from Beatles to Surf music to alt/rock.
All opinions welcome.

IMHO, a TC would pair well with the Streamliner, but I have doubts about the Epifani cabs being right. Paging Kjung!

Hello! The Thunderchild112 is a great cab. For the type of music you are playing, and if you are considering a Streamliner, it would be the Baer ML112 for me (with the Streamliner 900 to get some power into that 8ohm cab). The Baer has a nice round low end and a beautiful articulate top end with plenty of upper mid response that matches up with a Streamliner perfectly to my ear (especially with a P Bass).

However, the Streamliner600 and Thunderchild112 will be the smallest box you could get that would pretty much keep up with that nice Epi 115UL... it will be a bit tighter down low, and much smoother/stereo speaker like up top, which might or might not be a good thing.

I'm off to NAMM today, so will be offline until Monday morning.
