Darkglass Just Unveiled Speaker Cabs!

[Hi-End Basses]

Not sure what speaker sizes they're offering, but "distortion friendly tweeters"!

410 cab is 4 ohms. 210 cab is 8 ohms, so no mix and match. Too bad the 410 isn't 8 ohms.

I was kinda surprised at how heavy they are.

Hehe, especially the [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]!

Neodymium speakers?

Ceramic. Though judging by the details as shown in that screenshot I posted above, it may actually well be whatever the magnetic cousin of lead is.

That heavy, huh?

Who wants to lug around an 84lb 2x10. My MarkBass CL108 8x10 weighs less than that!

Especially when it weighs the same exact amount as the 410!

That is heavy! Kind of going against the trend of everything lighter. Not sure how popular their 900 watt amp head is, but it seems like Darkglass is heading towards very competitive territory here.

It’s a typo on the 210 I’m pretty sure I saw 23kg listed elsewhere

 

[Thrillhouse]

That's a misprint. That's the weight of the 4x10. The 2x10 is 50.8lbs.

410 cab is 4 ohms. 210 cab is 8 ohms, so no mix and match.

It depends on the amp. If it can handle down to 2 or even 2.67 ohms (like my Genzler Magellan 800), you could mix them.

Curious to see how this develops.

Maybe it is 'Helsinkium'

Horizontal slot-ported? Good thing I wasn't set on buying one, because now I definitely won't. The new head looks nice, though.

Just out of curiosity, what about the slot port is a deal breaker for you?

I'd want to use the cabinet vertically, and it would just look icky.

But, I was planning on a sealed vertical 2x12, anyway, so no worries.

 

[Hi-End Basses]

Wouldn't it be redundant to have a Microtubes 900/500 if you already have a B3K and a VMT pedal? I'm just saying, that's half of the amp head.

Haha, fair enough!

I'm personally a fan of the vertical ports (even their looks), as there is some theorizing that it can lend itself to chimney cooling of the driver or something like that for marginally improved performance. Just how much that is true in the real world is debatable, but I've read it on the internet, so it must be true!
