    Hey MM, I loved it! (Still trying to get use to not having the B-2) It gave me a nice modular setup (B-1, or B-2, or B-1+B-2) for different situations. ...but be aware that your B-2 is a 4ohm cab and this is 4ohm cab so if you run both, your head will have to be able to handle a min 2 ohm load.:thumbsup:

    BTW going thru NJ this Tuesday:laugh:
    Happy Thanksgiving!

    I picked up a Mesa D800 than can run at 2 ohms. :)

    We'll, if I can raise the funds before it sells you will be hearing from me.

    Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!

    Definitely my favorite cab (reluctantly selling due to downsizing)

    Terrific cabs. I have two of them. Deep, rich, balanced tone, tiny footprint. I run mine with a Quilter BB800, a perfect combination.

    I have both, and without knocking the MAS (which I do use), I prefer the Acme; for my purposes, it's warmer and fuller.

    If this B-1 were 8 ohms, I might've bought it already.... They are that good.

    Hell yeah. I use a BB800 with a B-1 for smaller gigs and a B-2 for slightly larger ones. I have no more amp/cab GAS at present.

    OP, GLWTS.

    +1 on tone/quality/size.

    Ive been "rolling" cabs to find a smaller/lighter option and to date have found none. I would keep my Low Bs if it weren't for space and subway travel in NYC.


    @theduke1
    I'd take your lonely Low B and your Fretless G&L!! drool

    Agreed - I have a B1/4 - and really want to get 2xB1/8s. . . . running a Darkglass M900. . . sounds GREAT!

    That’s a really cool configuration. Wish I knew what they sounded like. Anyway just chiming in I definitely do not need another cabinet but I wish you the best of luck it’s gonna go
