Haha, I bought the mb4210 over a year ago, and it blew 4 days in. I've had to send it back 5 times for repairs(only cause it was free) otherwise I would just throw it in a river.

Ever think it could be user error?


Edit - Also, if it blew within 4 days of getting it, and you were that disappointed in it, you had more than enough grounds for a refund. . .

You got lucky then

Working in a music store that carries those things and who used to carry those crappy Warwick combos, I'd much rather have the Warwicks back!!

I will say this though, the 8x10 cab Marshall makes in the MB series is actually pretty stout, but it's odd to me that they'd make a cab that handles 2400 watts and not a head to match, the head is only 450 watts.

Don't think I got too lucky considering there is a Marshall club floating around here somewhere that has a fair number of happy and long-term MB users.
And since you can't hurt a cab by underpowering it, not sure what the issue would be with putting ONLY 450 watts into an 8x10 that could potentially handle more.

Well, I'm not saying there aren't people here that don't like them, I'm just siding with the OP on the basis that I don't like them either. And I didn't make the amp/cab wattage comparison insinuating that it's bad, just saying that it's weird to me to make a cab with that amount of power handling and not have a head to maximize that.
