2x112-rigs? Show me yours!

This rig pretty much killed my amp GAS!

Just finished refurbishing 2 Bag End S12 for a summer of outdoor jobs. New hardware, new grills, speakon and bed liner paint. Not bad for 20 - 25 year old boxes. Markbass tube 800, GK400rb, GK800rb and SVTII used. Currently loaded with Deltalite, but I have 'modern Bag End' 12s too and I swap frequently.

I'm interested in hearing some recordings of the aguilar 112 but haven't found much on youtube. Do any of you guys have recordings you are willing to share?

While I don't have any recordings whatsoever, others will want to know which cabs you are inquiring about. Aguilar has three current models:
GS112
DB112
SL112
 
I'm looking at either 2 112 Db's or 2 12 gs's. I've favored a more Hifi sound but recently I'm worried I'm not as full as I should be in a band setting. My current rig sounds phenomenal solo but in a band it lacks.
Opinions on the db and gs? What's favored and why?
I hear the db more full and slightly mid forward while the gs is mid-scooped.

The DB is a little more mid-forward, but I would call the GS more "flat" than "scooped." If you play with a more scooped or bottom heavy sound the DB's might work better for you. I play with a very mid-heavy sound so the GS' work awesome for me.

I liked the GS for a particular bass the Kydd. I compared them extensively. They are really mid scooped. Your mid heavy sound may make them neutral for you. For me there was a huge hole that I would try to fill with hand technique. I ended up selling them rather than hurt my hands.
 
I like all the rigs everyone have posted. I am debating weather buying two aguilar gs112 or two gk neo 112-II. Anybody have tried both? Differences? Which has a deeper sound, has more bass? Planning on buying a tone hammer 500 also. Music styles are rock, jazz and funk. Thanks.
 
I think the GS's will be deeper because of the ceramic speaker over neo. But, my when I bought my Aggie SL's, I was able to compare to the aggie DB's and the lowend was pretty close. The DB's had more, but the SL's wasn't too thin at all, plus the weight of the SL's won me over. Amazing how much lows come from this light cab. Plus, makers are making the neo cabs a lot better now.
