I want to put a 210 on my s15, and I love the Bag End 210, but it is only 4 ohms. What is an 8 ohm cab that will appeal to me?

8 ohm 210 for Bag End lover

The D10BX-D is really a cab unto itself. I personally have never heard a 2x10 like it. In my view the things that make it unique are
1. The low freq falls off about 50 to 60 and it falls off very smoothly. No wierdness going on in the low end. Some other 2x10's that try to go to 40 or claim to have lumps and bumps in the the low freq response.
2. The cross over at 3.5 is lower than most 2x10's. BE is using a 1" threaded compression driver from Eminience as the tweeter. It's padded way down on the crossover. That results in the sweet top end it delivers.
3. Power handling.. maybe it's that it doesn't try for 40 hz - maybe it's something else - but you can dump gob's of clean power into that cab and bury what some 4x10's will produce. A Tiny Terror indeed...
Replace the pair of BE cab's with an Avatar SB112 2nd gen neo cab. Rip out the crossover and tweet and replace them with something better. Pair that with the Avatar B210 (also 2nd gen neo) and turn the tweet way low. That's a pretty killer stack on low dough. Larger than the BE but way lighter...
I keep looking at your GFS on the D10. If there were some way for me to make that work easily, I'd be makin' a trip to Eugene...
