AFFORDABLE 410 BASS CABINET

If the thing is to get a 4x10 that will truly handle low end, the Carvin BRX 10.4 Neo is going to serve your needs much better than the BR 410:

Now on sale for only $50 more than the Avatar B410 with Line-X. And it rules! :bassist:

I just bought one. Handles the low B really well. I've been playing two 1x15 cabs so I wasn't particularly looking for a 4x10. I was initially looking at a 1x15/2x10 stack but like the BRX better by itself. I still might add a 1x15 or 1x18 though.

I A/Bed the BRX and their other 4x10 and the BRX was the clear winner in terms of handling the low B and having much more punch with the same amp settings (I believe other one is sealed and smaller in size, so that's probably why).
 
so i a/bed the Goliath III and Avatar, and there must be something wrong with my goliath, because NIGHT AND DAY. the avatar is amazing, handles the low B sooo much better than the goli. I would have written a real review if there was the slightest bit of competition but I've never heard my tone this good before, and I think it's less about how great the avatar is than the fact that there seems to be something wrong with my goliath (which I just sold to sit in a basement for a hobbyist)
 
I bought a Peavey TVX 410 4 ohm used on ebay for $150. I think it is one of the ones they had just before they came out with the Tour series, looks almost new. The seller was in my hometown so no shipping fees. It's a real nice cab and sounds huge with just my little B2R amp! Downside is it weighs almost 100lbs but with casters on it isn't so bad. Maybe you could find a deal like that if you're patient.

I came very close to buying a TVX 4x10 and 2x10. The only reason I didn't do it was someone offered to buy the 4x10 out from under me... that jerk!
