Closest Modern Cab to Flatback SVT?

[Rabidhamster]

I say this a lot but I prefer to move an 8x10.
6x10 is the WORST to move because you have to hunch and it’s still heavy.
4x10 doesn’t roll.


8x10 has nice casters and a handle, you tip back and walk. It’s like a dolly going up and downstairs - make sure to keep your pivot plates in good shape.

The only time an 8x10 is actually harder is when there’s some access point that prevents wheels. A stage with no stairs, a spiral staircase, not as common thankfully.

+1 - assuming you have a vehicle that can transport the 810, of course.

i have a 70’s tilt back ampeg 810 and i also have barefaced four10 (and a couple one10s.) i think the ampeg still sounds better but schlepping the barefaced is hilariously easier as you might imagine. they designed their 10” cabs to be similarish to the ampeg fridge tone so theres that. i will say that my barefaced four10 has much more bass response, which might be a feature or a detriment for you. theres always eq. but like i said, i still like the ampegs tone better. there’s something about it all right. imo. i have not tried the other cabs on your list.
