Yeah, John is great to deal with. I got my DNS-210 through him last year. My 210 has the silver, gold, and black Logo whereas my 410 has the older Silver and black logo. So my stack is a mixed bag. I've never used both at once although I stacked them together the first time I used the DNS-210. I was playing in a blues/rock trio and it was not quite a large club but bigger than medium-size.

I wasn't sure my 210 would fill it up OK, so I brought my 410 and stacked the 210 on top of it. I new the DNS-410 was more than enough because with my 800-watt Eden (that I bought directly from David Nordschow back in 2010) I get told to turn down at outdoor festivals if I try to sneak the master on my amp up to 10:30. So I typically run the master at 10 o'clock on outdoor festivals and with the 210 sitting on top of it, I could easily unplug the 210 and plug in the 410 if I needed to .

Not only did I not need to, I had to push the cab over to the side and move it up towards the front of this weird corner stage to get out of the 60° dispersion cone of the speakers because it was killing my ears. Had to move the house speakers over a bit so I could push my amp out from behind me. Sounded great out front, but I'll never stand that close to it at that height again. That first song was painful.

My plan was to get the DNA-800 this year but I only use gig money to buy my gear and since Covid-19 closed everything up that's probably not going to happen until next year. I've played all of 1 gig so far this year. My Eden amp is a WT500 that David upgraded to 800-watts. He used it to design the Eden cabs starting back in 1999. Sounds absolutely great, but weighs about 36-lbs in its rack compared to the 4.8-lbs of the DNA-800 or the 7-lbs of your DNA-1350. You are really going to enjoy that DNA-1350. David just makes great stuff!
 
I sold my old DNA 410 to a guy here locally that isin a country band that plays weekly . He normally uses all Ampeg , 410 , 610 . Anyway he said the DNA cab was outstanding at his gig last weekend , and his band said it was the best he ever sounded !

Easy to believe. I know it's the best sounding and loudest cab I've ever played through.

On a side note, I have a good friend who, for medical reasons, will not be playing any longer. He will be selling his DNA 1350, DNS-115, and DNS-112. The 115 never made it out of the box.
Really sorry to hear that. I might know who you are talking about if he's a member on TB. That so sucks to have to give up playing bass because of medical problems.:(
