Genz Benz XB2 cabs (410 and 610)

[Musicman20]

Hi

Can anyone provide details on what these cabs are like?

I'm after a big cabinet, and I'm thinking of picking up the 610 in a sale.

Weight isn't an issue, but tone is.

For the record, I like the punch of the Aguilar DB12s.

I have the 6x10 XB2. It is a very beefy cab. It has great low end. If your looking for somthing bright this isn't it. I use it to play outdoor venues and it sounds great. It is heavy though so beware.

Bump for more opinions as I'm also interested!

That was my experience as well, though in limited use.

I used the 610T-XB2 with an Ampeg SVT-II. It had an amazing full range tone with the 'peg. It would do a shimmery high end but was not disproportionately necessarily bright. I used a P Bass, a Carvin J, and a Ric 4001 at the time all with bright-ish strings. Definitely my favorite amp/cab combination I've ever used.
