Wha Cab Should I Purchase

helloooo everybody

I have just recently purchased a Hartke Lh1000 head and i'm the lookout for a cabinet. I would like the cab to be rated a 4 ohms and at least 600 watts and i'm just wondering what you guys suggest.

I'm looking for a cab with a lot of low end because i'm in a very heavy band and we play in drop b tuning. I don't really care about highs i'm only in it for the lows

I would prefer it if the cab is either a 4x10, 4x12, 6x10 or a 8x10

I'm looking for one that is preferably below $1500 AUD
(I live in au so shipping is included in the price if its from america...obviously haha)

Which ever cab I end up purchasing I plan on buying a second later in the year.

What cab do you suggest?

If you have any advice or knowledge with this subject please post below

I suggest you join the greenboy forum I believe he has/had a builder in New Zealand. Inquire about a Dually 215.

I would advise against a 4 ohm cab, unless it's a BIG cab, 8x10, maybe 2x15. "Getting all your watts" is highly over-rated, but having the ability to add more spkrs is of utmost importance.
