What to go with my Little Mark Rocker 500?

I've been using combos and I have no experience with cabs at all. Will be getting a Little Mark Rocker soon, any suggestion for the cab? Right now I'm thinking of an 8ohm 1x15 Mesa Scout.

What about the Markbass line of cabs? They're lightweight, and look and sound pretty great. A friend of mine uses the 410, with their discontinued Sa450 head, and it has loads of punch and volume.

I really enjoy my Markbass cabinets and I've used Bergantino previously. I'm not saying Bergantino is inferior at all, I just preferred how the Markbass cabinets let my bass sit in the mix.

Most markbass stuff is great. SWR also makes a pretty good line of lightweight cabinets, the golight series, and bergantino stuff is absolutely phenomenal. The best bass tone I've ever heard came from a bergantino 610, though they are a bit pricier. TC electronics also has a phenomenal line of cabinets.

The MarkBass cabs are a little pricey, but very nice. I love my rig.

Where are you getting yours? I'm interested in that amp for my berg 112 stack.

Just bear in mind that the amp will be putting out approx 1/2 it's wattage into 8 ohms. But that does leave you with the option of adding a 2nd 8 ohm cab!
