Thanks for this feedback. I’ve got both the BA10 and the BA12 already, but I would like to use a 12 inch cab in a combo configuration, as I find myself using the 12 more often in one cabinet situations. Wish the BA12 came in a combo version.

Very cool. I have some of their products, it turns out, under some home studio monitors. Thanks a lot.
Perhaps you could attach the MG350 combo cradle to your BA12 and clamp in the MG350 amp. Jeff could advise if this is do-able.
It was postulated a while ago, attaching the 350 cradle to the ba12 and Jeff advised against drilling holes / piloting screws into the cabinet. I'm sure it can be done, but you have to know what's inside before you start. I don't think Jeff wants to say "sure go ahead" as their are likely warranty implications, etc.... All 10-2's have the cradle screws already screwed into the cabinet, waiting for their owners to buy the cradle.
I wouldn’t want to monkey around with it on my own, especially if Jeff said not to.
Is there a cover for the 12T-V combo?

My MG800 saved itself last night.
It was a typical outdoor festival with generator power. I tested my amp briefly at setup and all was good. The band on the secondary stage was using some old PAR cans, which is weird because there was passable lighting. Anyway, I didn't realize it, but they had plugged them into the same circuit on the same generator that my rig was on.
We got up to finish the night out and my head instantly went into protect mode any time I tried to turn it on. I did a quick check of speaker cables and everything else and finally just decided to go with just the DI on my EHX Battalion (I had it for the noise gate and distortion). After the other band tore down and left, I turned my head on out of curiosity, and it fired up with no problems. I didn't switch back, simply because we didn't want to stop our set. When we were done, I fired it up and it worked with no problems.
I'm guessing maybe their incandescent Pars must have been wired with a ground to neutral??? That just seems like the only scenario that would allow their lights to work, but make my head go into protect mode. Reverse polarity shouldn't be a factor with PAR cans.
Anyway. Thanks, @Jeff Genzler, for making the amps idiot proof.

The only problem is that they keep making better idiots
Glad it worked out for you though.
GB Streamliner 600 owned, considering a local purchase of GB 212T-UB, anyone have this cabinet?

I have owned the Uber 410T, 210T (still own) and Uber Quad. The Uber series cabs are killer. I remember hearing from GB folks that the Streamliner/212T setup was amazing. 4ohms, Big, Round, Punchy and definition with the tweeter and a little over 60lbs I believe. It would be a nice score.
Joeykun, appreciate your comments from your experience on the Uber cabs, will get the 212T. I am sure I won't be disappointed. Looks like all other cabs in the Uber series were 8 ohm, with the exception on the 410 and 810.
Were some pairing the 212T and 410T, that would be a tower of power. Be well James

That would have been one powerful rig. I will try the 212T with the 600...but adding a 210T to the mix if I can find one, would make me have to get an amp with 2 ohms...we will see.
Hey Genzler fam - my current rig is the MG800 through a pair of BA12-3 STRs. Have been thinking about adding another Array to my rig now that there is a dealer here in Canada within reasonable reach.
Not sure whether to go with a BA12-3 SLT or a BA210-3 SLT. What do you you all think?

I have the same rig as Loring, the old style BA 12-3 and a newer 12-3 SLT. The SLT is my primary cab and gives me flexibility to place on the bottom or top depending on the room and my mood. Its also my go to single cab choice of the two. Having said that I've toyed with the idea of mixing in a 210-3 for punch.
One more thing, If I only have my regular BA 12-3 I've been ending up turning that one on its side more often than not. Seem to like the dispersion on from the side pattern just a tab better.
