Double Bass Anybody else curious about these... MAS content

I use a MAS 46 every day for every gig and I love it. It sounds stellar and I would recommend it. That said I am looking toward buying a MAS powered 18 when funds become available not to replace the 46 but for smaller gigs (I had a 16 that was stolen). The 46 gets way louder then I'd ever need and is super hifi. THe seller says he could not use the pair for a PA but that is not my experience. I think they sound great as full range cabs.
 
Id love to buy both of these cabs and stack them. I wonder what they sound like with a DB


MASoundworks MAS 46 Bass Cabinet by Mike Arnopol (2 available)

When I looked at buying my first MAS cabinet I played the 4x5 and the 4x6.
I opted for the 4x5 because of it’s smaller footprint and great definition.
The 4x6 was incredible, but it weighs 40 lbs. At that time, the 4x6 was the ideal cabinet for doubling, concerts, and clubs, but the 4x5 was a very close second and easier to transport. Then Mike built the 4x5.5, which has the same footprint of the 4x5 and the low end of the 4x6. That’s the cabinet
I use for bigger gigs or doubling. I also own a MAS 1/8 and it’s sound is
falls somewhere inbetween the 4x5’s
and the 4x6.
