Any Benifit to adding another identical cab besides volume?

2 15"s are way better than one, especially with compact cabs like the mesa. they're almost deliberately designed to be run in pairs.

sure, you can crank up more, but the key is that at the same volume, you'll have more evenness, clarity, and low end. each speaker (as well as the amp) will not be working as hard, giving you better sound.

+1 It will sound much better even at the same volume. IMO, of course. :bassist:
