I have mine on a stoatage shelf and they are wearing their snuggly padded covers. So it was more about the cold itself. But it does not get below freezing in there as I keep my Poland Spring bottles in there and they are never frozen. But all that said, now I think I will likely bring them down to my basement during the cold winter months. Thanks for the responses.

Well, my wife said my practice corner looked too "heavy." That was all the reason I needed to order the TV12 and move the "heavy" GB Neo212 down stairs for storage. This little thing kicks ass. Very clear, full range, and plenty deep. It's much like my Neo212 but more focused sounding. At first I had it on the floor and was getting some weird room resonance. Picking it up off the floor helped give it much more clarity and eliminated the weird room resonance I was getting. Now it is clear and punchy!

I've only played with it at home so far but I'm really enjoying it.

Place that little guy on top of the Genz 2x12, switch the Mesa to 2 Ohms, plug them both in and have some fun really moving the dishes in the kitchen cabinets. :woot:

That HAS occurred to me! I haven't done so yet, but I'm sure I will. That would put the 1x12 pretty high up and make it very easy to hear on stage. Add ANOTHER 1x12 on top of that and I've got a nice tower!

This is a great grab and go cabinet; light, great form factor, lots of sound per pound. I use it with the MG350 and it covers many situations. I think I'm still going to get a BA10-2 to compare...maybe I'll end up keeping both!

OK, I ordered a BA10-2 today! I think for a while I'll move the MG350 and bracket from the MG12T-V to the BA10-2. I'll use the MG800 for now with the MG12T-V (within reasonable volume of course). This leaves several options:

1. Have two separate rigs. MG350/BA10-2 and MG800/MG12T-V. Leave it at that.
2. Add another BA10-2 for a dual BA10-2 stack.
3. Add another MG12T-V for a dual MG12T-V stack.
4. Add a BA12-3 to put under the BA10-2 combo.
5. Put the existing MG12T-V (tweeter off) under the BA10-2 combo. Not sure my OCD would allow this.

I know, over thinking. Not a bad problem to have. I'll wait for the BA10-2 to come in and see what resonates with me.

Happy holidays to you all!

Stay safe,

Bob

@Jeff Genzler

So, I was thinking about what should go on your New Year's resolution list (pretty bold of me!). It's a given that you'll be working on innovative new gear and providing outstanding customer service. So I thought, as has been mentioned before, Genzler t-shirts and other swag should go on your list!

Thanks for all you've done for us bass players...looking forward to 2021.

going to create an IR with an Audio technica 2040 but want to capture the tweeters too...

I guess I will experiment quite a lot to get what I’m looking for - was hoping someone else had gone through the miking process and had some pointers... will post results for those who are capturing a direct signal but want it to sound like a miked BA...

Maybe the big guy could shed some suggestions. @Jeff Genzler
