Thanks!

2 ordered on Monday from MF and out for delivery today! Plan on running them with my STM900 and comparing them to my berg HD210s.

Got my new GK Fusion 550 and two new GK Neo 112-II cabs the other day and just got a chance to give them a test run. Man does this rig sound sweet!

My only complaint is that when I stack them horizontally they don't sit flat together and the top cab rocks a bit. I posted this in the GK thread and chef said that on some hard surfaces he has the same issue sometimes and has to put a beer coaster where they don't sit together. Has anybody else had this issue??

Probably worth noting: I've had that same issue with other brands as well.

Please note : I definitely am not knocking these cabs because they sound great are very light and are well worth the money.

It just would be nice if mine mated together better. Mine wobble pretty significantly and there is quite a gap between the top and bottom cab in one corner. It is true that a couple of beer coasters would solve the problem. Just kinda bums you out when you buy something new and have even slight issues with it. I'm sure this is probably not a common issue. Just wondering if anyone else experienced this when they horizontally stack their cabs.

You may well have a cab that was damaged in shipping. Borrow or buy a square and check for which cab is not square at all corners? Then you can talk to the selling dealer about replacement.

Stack vertically. Better sound. You can hear better, no cab stacking problem.

I'm just stacking them horizontally until I figure out what to do about the back feet of my Fusion 550 not fitting on the vertically stacked cabs.

I'd contact G-K customer service and see what they had to say.

Did you look at the corners to see if there was something obviously wrong like one corner not being seated all the way?

I am holding out for one or two of these. If anyone sees an MF, Amazon, GC, or WWBW deal, please let me know. I hear they've been around $305 recently.

Ive got a restless Genz Shuttle 3.0 sitting in a box until I get a cab..

I bought one cab practically new here on TB and one from RMC Direct. Happy camper, and bass player too.

Forget the Cabs, those Basses are gorgeous.
