    thats fair enough thanks for the reply "IF you find that none of the bass bins you audition aren't right for you, you might want to consider a 2 or 3-way PA bin, with the proviso that it may be almost disturbingly clean vs. bass cabinets (and all the dirty work is done vs. building something...

    True, I'll most likely just try as many cabs as I can, with me using digital modelling I may not need yo worry as much as I can make a lot of adjustments digitally. Just need to find the right cab that will hold clarity and keep the lows aggressive. Thanks for the reply
