Anyone Try the Trace Elliott Elf 1x10 Cab?

Thoughts on these?

Adorable.

Small, efficient, extended low end. You can't have all 3 in one cabinet.

So it has a 3 or not?

I doubt you'll get much extended low end with a single 10.

I was thinking of stacking two . Plus, I only play 4 string basses.

You can get extended low end out of single 10, but it has to be designed to do that, and...it won't do low and loud very well. I have a 110 cabinet, and it goes low, but it's very specifically designed for a gig I play where I don't need to get loud. It's also bigger then what you're looking at.

2 of them will give you 6 dB more output. Probably OK??

I have a 110 cabinet

Is it a Trace Elliot ELF?

I thought we'd debunked the "all 10's sound the same" myth here at TalkBass.

I just got a 2x10 micro stack. I play 4-string. The low E sounds authoritative and fine. The weight is mind-blowing. The Elf amp has got that TE tone. No gigs on it yet

i have a NHT sub in the studio ... single 10 , specs state down to 15hz ... but it is a specific 'sub' driver .. !

I have the Elf and two of those Elf 1x10 cabs. I use them for home practice and I've been using one of those cabs for band practice. I play 4 and 5 string basses. I've never heard complaints about it being too quiet (or too loud). It reproduces all the sounds I need to be productive. I'm itching to play them out live. I'm thinking that with some PA assistance, it'll be alright for personal monitoring at a gig. Maybe?

The 110 is inadequate on its own if you are competing with drums and guitars. As a solo practice amp it’s fantastic. The paper 6db boost from adding a second cab is sizable; I may give it a try.

Considering the combo with extension cab. Either the 1x8” Combo with the 2x8”, or the 1x10” Combo with the 1x10”. I’m guessing that the 3x8” sound might be perceived as louder compared to the 2x10”, and the 2x10s would have a better bass response, but that’s really based on old tech. Anyone tried these mini stacks? TIA

I recently used my TE Elf with both 10” cabs for a gig in a small club with a stage. The sound man used the DL out for the house system. This band plays Bossa Nova with keyboards, drummer, a vocalist and me on bass. The 2x10 combo worked great. Plenty of punch and a high quality sound. Granted, the DL took ofc some of the load, but it was dialed back and we deliberately relied on the cabs because they sounded good.
