Double Bass CxL-112 or Wizzy 112

[Jake]

Which one would you get for double bass? There is a deal for a used CxL-112, but I am leaning towards the lighter new Wizzy cab.

Jake,

I used the Advanced Search function for "Wizzy CXL".

Here is just the tip of the iceberg.

Don't thank me. Thank Tom Bowlus and all these other cats.

You should keep searching using that criteria if you like. This does not list all the hits I found by any means.

Nice work, Bolo!

Man, I need to update that 1x12 shootout with the CxL-112 and M-line Wizzy....

Jake, is there a store close to you where you could try the cabinets? A/B would be a good thing to do if you can since they are quite different.

Actually, I am planning to visit Bass Central in the Orlando area. They have two CXL-112's used as new for sale and the new Wizzy 12's also. I am hoping to try those out with the AI Clarus and Focus, the main heads I'm looking into. I also hope to try some iAMP heads and the Aguilar GS112 as well as the Bergantino and Ampeg Portabass 12's. They don't have the GK MBS there, but I hope I can find somewhere to try one of those as well. The Acme B-1 looks really nice for double bass, so I am also thinking about trying one with Acme's two week return policy.
