Fearful / Greenboy 15x6 Cabs in 2026?

[Pep]

An OCD perfectionist would mirror the baffle on the 15sub to get the woofers closer together, just sayin'.

Hey Charlie,
I could put feet on the top and flip it.

Sure, but then the ports won’t line up. It’s always something!

But seriously, great looking rig and I’m sure it sounds killer. Kalium Strings had an F112 on top of one of Skip’ s uber sub rigs at NAMM one year I went, with some crazy low tuned Knuckle basses, it was epic.

This turned out great. It’s thick, full, articulate, and can be extremely loud. I absolutely love it!

I had 2 Fearless F115's for 6 years. I had the second cab done mirrored baffle for stacking when needed ...I needed both cabs together exactly one time in the 6 years I owned them.

My Streamliner 900 into a 15/6/1 is plenty of volume to give me a headache without ear pro.

i have a tri115 and a tri112+
for indoor work, like tonight, I mostly use the 112

I was considering a 12" sub cab to use below my BF Big Baby ll. So no mid or other, just a 12" subwoofer cab.
If that would work well? Or are the 12XN BF built cabs just too specialized to match with other than another BF cab?
Right now, another BF cab shipped to me in TX is just too expensive to consider.
I found a lightly used BF Big Baby ll locally a couple months ago. So I have the one already. Keeping my eyes open for a BF BB ll or 3 here in the classifieds, still.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Out of curiosity, do you find the Big Baby lacking in low end? Folks seem to really like them, so wondering what it's lacking for your use.

I've only gigged the BB ll a couple times so far. With 500-800w amps. So far, I've been very impressed with the low-end the BB ll is giving me at a med sized tavern, then at a warehouse sized brewery. No PA support for bass at either.
I did feel I was pushing the BB ll with the 800w Mesa amp at the brewery gig.But the cab never sounded stressed.

I bought it used that morning, took it to the big gig that evening. So I didn't get time to dial it in. I mighta had the attenuate knob dialed up too much. The low-end is very impressive as many on TB state often.

I only use 5 string active basses right now. And even then, the little BB ll hung in there very well.
I'd just like to use two BB 12 cabs to get the full 4ohm load out of any of my amps'. I'm sure I'd be backing down the volume at that point.

I just sold my 1st Gen BF Big Twin-T cab. I'd like the portability of two BF Big Baby's now, when needed.

Speaker hardware still sells crossovers and flat packs. I just received crossovers for a Fearful 1515/66/1 I am refurbishing.

I don't know if Don is still making his cabinets are not, but I stumbled upon a used Greenboy styled LDS 15/6.5/1 a year or two ago and I loved it so much that when another 12/6 popped up on marketplace I immediately bought it and paid for shipping without haggling price and without hesitation. They are honestly the best sounding cabs I have ever played through, and I've played through big, monster refrigerator stacks down to little combo amps, new and old. They are amazing and I'm never getting rid of them.

Website looks like it's still up, sort of:

Low Down Sound - Custom Speaker Cabinets for Bass Guitar

Good luck with your search!

I feel like the fearful design was so far ahead of it's time that the rest of the world is just about to catch up to it.
