I feel I get more definition with 10's, and that's a good thing when you tuning down, you don't want it to be too muddy. |

I wouldn't use a 2x10 or 1x10, I think they would be more likely to fart out. But if you're thinking of using a 15' aswell I think you'd be fine. |

Depends on which one.

to me, it all depends on what type of 10" that they are, and how many of them you have. |

I'm not a big fan of all clean tone anyway.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2005 Location: Johannesburg, South Africa | | | most 210's probably won't get you the low end you are looking for at volume (there are exceptions however ie. eden 210XST) but if you are running any decent 410 you will *probably* get better/deeper low end than from the equivalent 115 model
ps. most cabs with tens are quite capable of handling standard 5string tuning so tuning your 4 string down to C is not gonna kill anything; how loud you play however might...
