ampeg 4x10 help

I think you know my answer to this already... The speakers are the difference between the two cabs in reality.
The SVT-410HLF is a real rocken sockem cab. What do you really want? A single SVT410 and 3PRO would be a great little amp.

I've been running a SVT410HLF with a SVT3Pro for 3 or 4 years now and love it! The two make a very good match. The tonal capabilities of the 3Pro's preamp allow for a huge variety of tones. I have full PA support so the master rarely gets above the 9:00 position. 
I've never played a BSE410HLF. I'd say a lot depends on what volume you'll be playing at. If it's loud, then you might want to save up for an SVT model or look at a sealed cabinet. As for the amp, the B2 might do the job depending again on your volume needs. The BSE410HLF with B2 or the SVT410HLF with a SVT3Pro should both be good matchups.

The cab was purchased in 2004 or 2005 the seller said and it is American made. I think I may go with this cab and try to find a good deal on the 3Pro. I suppose if I don't get what I want out of it I can try reselling it and upgrading to the SVT410. Hopefully this one will get the job done.
I too think you'll love it. I play thru an Ampeg 610HLF...make certain it is indeed an HLF they are deep phat lows... my ampeg B2R powers this badboy and does a fantastic job!....Go for it!.mine is 350W.I think you'll like the 410HLF as well.

Eh, I don't think I'll mind so much. Yeah, it's heavy but, it's got casters and I'm sure I'll have a helping hand when bringing it on stage.
wow, 410's? I say it's time to hit the gym if you're whining about lugging around 410s.
91lbs isn't that much.
It's a bag of salt, and a turkey.
had the 410hlf.....loved it. my band plays in B (C when i had the cab) and it never failed on lows. great for crunch, loud, deep low sound. i love it.
Contrary to popular belief, I would say that this cab has NO LOWS at all. What it DOES have is LOW-MIDS. Very different thing.
Not saying it's bad, just making the distinction. Some call it warm and full, I call it muddy and boomy. It will balance well if you play pickstyle, in my opinion.

I tend to play finger style 99% of the time. Depending on song rhythm or fell of the song I may use a pick. As I said I usually play in drop D, my settings are usually treble: 1/4-1/3 of the way up, bass: cranked, mids: cranked. Do you think this cab will come off muddy?
