@Gatlin after using your PF-350 for a while do you still like it?
Well I've used the PF350 head with one cabinet several times and I really like the sound so far. I bought two cabinets and have only had the opportunity to use both at one event. Last week I played at a worship event for the at risk youth program at a local military base. The building was probably 100 feet long and probably 30 or 40 feet wide so not real big but I was told the PA system was really small and only for vocals. So.....I take the PF350 and both cabinets excited about using the full rig for the first time. We get there and they have recently upgraded the PA system which actually is pretty nice for the building (powered EV mains, subs, and 3 or 4 wedges). We got there early for a sound check before the youth kids started arriving. I had the PF350 hooked to both cabs with the volume on about 2 (0 to 10) and after the first song the sound guy told me he took me out of the mains/subs and I was still too loud. We had acoustic drums, electric guitar, acoustic guitar and myself (with both guitar guys singing as well) so it was fairly loud anyway. I turned down to 1 (see photo below of master gain setting) with both cabs hooked up and he still said I was too loud when combined with FOH.
FYI....I was running my pedal board into the effects return and using my Sansamp BDDI for the preamp so the preamp gain and eq on the PF350 weren't used. My BDDI is setup for unity gain also so it isn't feeding some really hot signal to the power amp. Since I play for bass players at other churches a good bit I keep my pedal board at unity gain so the sound guy doesn't have to do some crazy gain control when I hook up to his system.
Ultimately I ended up unplugging the bottom cabinet in my stack and just leaving the top cabinet hooked up with the master volume at about 1.5 or so. Sound guy left me in the wedges just for stage volume and took me out of the mains/subs. Being a sound guy myself I did everything I could to work with the sound guy, but I couldn't turn down any lower than 1.5 or so and actually still hear myself. He told me afterwards the bass volume was better with only one cabinet but I was still pretty hot (which is fine with me, haha).
Here's a pic of the room setup. There were about 25 or 30 guys and probably 15 or so girls (which you can't see in the photo because they keep them separated and the girls are behind the guy taking the photo) and probably 10 or so adults. So, probably 50 people or so in the room.
Here's a pic of the amp (and the p-bass that I played at that event) and just one cabinet where I leave it setup in my home office.
You can actually see the top of the amp over by the projector screen in this photo.....
All that to say.....I'm very pleased with the setup so far and don't see myself needing anything more than this setup anytime in the near future. I play in worship events all over the place (played at two churches and that military event last week) with crowds up to 200 or so. The portability of the PF350 and those two 210 cabs is incredibly awesome. At the moment I think even playing outdoors this rig would be plenty with a half way decent PA system or maybe even no PA support depending on the instruments we have playing. Indoors and this setup will do everything I need without PA support. How cool is it that I can put the head, both cabinets, guitar case, guitar stand, and a cable bag of all kinds of assorted stuff (just in case) in the back seat of my F150? 10 years ago I was hauling around a 215 cabinet in the back end of my truck that weighed much more, wasn't easy to move, and didn't sound near as good as these little cabinets.
