Here is part 2 of my video comparing the RH450 and RS210/212 cabinets with a couple of other models of amps and cabinets. This video uses the RS210/212 configuration with the RH450, an Ampeg SVT-II head, and a Gallien Krueger 400RB III amp. Notes-- AMPLIFIERS (all tested w/ the TC...

Hi Tom-- I'm happy with the overall sound of the RS210 when I use my main setting on the RH450s EQ. I'd say it can compensate quite well for the general midrangey character of the default settings. It would have been a good idea to try to compensate for the EQ difference on the video. In...

Thanks for the kudos on our FOLIO tracks! It's always nice to know when someone appreciates all the hard work which goes into writing and recording an album. We're currently writing material for our first full-length--we have 12 demos in the can so far, w/ more to go...... I'll have to try the...

SPEAKERS (all tested w/ the RH450 head)---------- 1. RS210 w/ JBL218 vs RS210 w/ RS212 Picked groove-- Pretty close overall. Mainly just the difference between the speaker sizes. Adding the JBLs in place of the TC 2x12 is nice and punchy. Slap groove-- No major difference...

Hi again-- I've finally completed 2 test videos which test the RH450 w/ various cabinets and then test the RS210/212 combo I have w/ a couple different amp heads. Here's the Youtube link to part 1. Part 2 to follow in the next day or so. I'll also post detailed notes. Enjoy! Chris Willshire

Wow--lots of great info on this thread--thanks to everyone! My RH450 and 2x12 and 2x10 configuration are working great so far. Still have more programming to do. The first stop on our tour was in Oklahoma City, and after soundcheck, the house sound guy said "I tell you what, you got yerself a...

Hi AJ- Thanks--I realized that I used the embed code as soon as I posted it--doh!--I later edited it--thanks for the tip. Cheers, Chris

Hi-- This depends on exactly what you're stacking on top of the cabinets. I'm using a 2x10 on top of the 2x12. Using only the RH450 head on top is quite stable. The speakers are quite stable, even on a rickity stage. I however have a 4 space rack which contains my RH450 head as well as a Tech...

Hi- I'm also lucky enough to get to try this out. I've been on the road for the past 2 weeks and am getting my notes and some video footage digitized for some upcoming blogs. In the meantime, here's a fun little video I did regarding my initial impressions of the RH450 and the 2x10 and 2x12...
