    I run a CX210/CX115 with the Legacy 800. Until today, I have not had any issues with either cabinet but I noticed when up around the 7th fret on the lower strings it sounds as though the speaker is blown making the "farting" noise. With this in mind, I am having second thoughts on moving forward with the CX410 or the RBH410 or if I should just sell the CX series and move on to something else. I am not 100% sure what caused the issue, I am a moderate player with no real need to BOOM. Any feedback is welcomed.

    So this is something that suddenly started happening?
    Try playing through one cabinet at a time to see if one or both are causing the bad sound.
    If you're playing an active bass, replace its battery. A low battery can do odd things to your sound.
    Try playing a different bass through your rig.

    Hey there. Thanks for the reply. I did try it with another bass and still the same issue.

    Try to isolate the problem to one cabinet.

    Thanks everyone. It has been confirmed that the speaker needs to be replaced.
