I had a pair of those. Used them with a WW Ultra for electric. Did not care for them at all, very sterile, no warmth whatsoever. also lacked in low end.

I just got one of the EBS neo112 and I actually think it sounds great. I will agree that a Walter Woods (I have one) can tend to make certain cabs sound sterile. TO me that is more a characteristic of the Walter Woods. I love the Walter Woods, but you do need to choose a cab that sounds good with it.

I am using the EBS Reidmar amp and they play nicely together with the electric and upright.

of course this is just my opinion. So much depends on the bass pickup, strings etc.... if you can try it out first then that would be a good idea.

I had a pair of these for a while. Great cab, IME/IMHO. Very clear and articulate, but I can see where some folks might like a more warm/full tone.

call me crazy, but im starting to think that cabs slightly shy on the low end might be good for upright bass (even though i use a high pass filter). any thoughts on this? (sorry for the hijack)

They certainly can be. Some of it boils down to subjective preferences, but much of it depends on the mix-n-match of your instrument/pickup (or mic)/amp/cab signal chain.
