How do you transport your Aguilar DB750?

Sign in to disble this ad
I recently bought the beast DB750, and I'm trying to see how everybody's transporting their 750s. It's heavy, has sharp edges, and is awkward to carry. It even throws seat belt warning when it's riding shot gun in my car.

Are most of you using a rack, a rack case, or the aguilar head case? Pictures are welcome!

I was using a Gator 4U rolling rack for a while...


I am currently using a non-rolling 4U Gator rack (I just use my cab as a cart when transporting the amp), but am finding that the cheap latches tend to come undone too easily, and am in the market for a new 4U rack.

I was definitely interested in the rolling rack types as well. I take it yours wasn't too sturdy? I know SKB makes rolling rack cases as well...

I'm using a 3u soft rack. Less bulky, I can carry it like a briefcase or just place it on top of a rolling cab. I'm considering switching to a rolling rack, but not sure if it can be as easily carried over non-pavement or stairs?

Same here, 3u rack bag. I'd only put it in a full blown wooden rack if it came with wheels, kind of like this one that I've been GASing for:

My only complaint with the Gator cases is the quality of the latches - pretty lousy.
