Ampeg B2RE Cabinet Question

I think the Prius factor excludes an 810 as an option. An 810 and a 410 are very similar, but 2 410 cabs have 2 horns, I think the 810 only has the 1. Never had an 810 so I'm just guessing here.

Checking the frequency response from the Ampeg site, I'm now guessing there are NO tweeters in an 810:

810 - Frequency Response (-3dB): 58Hz-5kHz
410 - Frequency Response (-3dB): 60Hz-18kHz

Correct , there are no tweeters in an 8 10e. Also , one 8 10 will be a little smaller than two 4 10's. My 8 10 is exactly 4' 3/4"tall and that includes the wheels and handle. I think two 4 10's are about 4' 3" and that's without wheels which will add at least 3 inches to each cab.
I believe I recall Jimmy saying the 4 10he and the 8 10e use the same speakers. Turn off the tweeters in the he and they sound almost identical. And as we all know , tweeters are for birds.;)
