I wanted a smaller cabinet to play some of the smaller venues (primarily churches). However, the little 8 ohm, SB112 couldn't hold its own against the Hammond organs and Leslie speaker cabinets.

I was playing through the Shuttle 6.0. So, the more I tried to get more volume, the more the amp clipped. I am hoping that the 4 ohm B210 will fare better.

What about getting an additional 112 at 8 ohms?

 

[Steelpulz]

I thought about doing that, but I just bought the Shuttle, also. So I am trying to limit the spending for now. Addtionally, I'm trying to cut down on the size and weight I have to carry. So, hopefulluy, the B210, at 4ohms will do what I need it to do.

 

[Steelpulz]

Still waiting for a number.

Hmmm...not sure why lewis hasn't been assigning numbers since his return, but I'll be happy to do the latest group.

Welcome to the Avatar Club, gents!

 

[Slaphappy]

I'd like to make a note here once again that I'll be out of town for two weeks starting this weekend. I may log on occasionally but I might not while I'm gone, so please be patient for a number. I'll be back in the swing on June 23rd.
Thanks!

Scuz...how goes the decision making process, bud?

Does it come in black? Go down to 2 ohms? Have a 35" scale and 19mm spacing? O.K., I'll take two of 'em then. -GK Club #2 - Eden Electronics Club #2 - MTD (non U.S.) Club #14

your sig doesnt reflect that

me? no avatar bass stuff yet, but i have dealt with them with guitar stuff (and gotten some killer closeout prices on "discontinued" speakers).
but i am thinking on it--- the 212 neo looks better and better.

Didn't see it in your sig....that number has been reassigned now. Thanks.

toobalicious...I love my 212 My style is usually classic rock, rock in general, funkier stuff, even a dash of country, and hard rock.

What's that have to do with anything?

just an observation.


the "clubs" seem to be a big deal around here.

scuz - here is a link with some info. One detail not mentioned - the enclosure for the mid driver came from Wal-Mart (small plastic bathroom trashcan).

I was a dyed in the wool SWR Cab guy for years. My old 8x8 and 212 were great but stacked they were a little tippy. This time around I had to pinch a few pennies to get some cabs and these fit the bill handily. I love these things. Light, narrow, stack well, and throw sound like no-ones business. I currently will just be using either/or for gigs. I just sold the Carvin and ordered an Markbass F1. I'm going to a lighter rig and these are light for what they are. I picked up a nice osp 4 space ATA as well. Much improved over the skb behemoth. It sits perfectly on top of the Avatars and is only 14" deep without the lids.

add me to the club.

Hey Dannster - I'm just down the road in Tacoma, and I've got those identical cabs at 4 ohms each too! Guess we can start the "Orange Tolex 4 Ohm Avatar Club" now. I don't have the Mesa anymore, I power them with an SVT-CL these days - but I like the 10's on top. You're right - a great sounding stack!

 

[PWV]

I guess I need a number too!

Hi, gang ...

My first post ...

A few of the girls and my B212 Neo.

 

[jshilgebass]

Two years of owning two Avatar cabs (a neo 210 and a neo 112) and I never got around to joining up! Somebody slap me!!

What's my number?

Has anybody mixed the colored cabs? I've got one of the orange 212's and was thinking about getting a 210 to go with it, but maybe in a different color just for fun.

 

[jsingles]

mixing would be neat...

I am buying a b410 neo as soon as i sell my GK 115, and I am completely torn about what color to get haha....

the blue looks SO amazing, I love it.... but the orange matches my bass so much better (amber finish with a red pickguard on my jazz bass)

i feel like the yellowy orange nature of my jazz bass would clash with the blue and match better with the orange, but the blue is just so damn sexy....

so those of you with colored tolex... does the color match your bass?

Welcome aboard, guys!

 

[EagleMoon]

I'd like to have one of every color. I used to have the orange (Desert Gold) Sterling but I sold it. Now I'm down to blue and black basses, so mine doesn't match my cab anymore.
