Has the Bass Array fallen out of favor or is Nu-Classic line just getting the attention because it’s new and exciting?

The Nu-Classic is new and shiny but really good. I also love my MG112T-V cab. And people are still making giant stacks of the BA cabs for sure. You really can't go wrong with any of them. They are all variations of great. I'm not sure anyone has as varied and awesome a line up of cabs as Genzler. Yeah, a couple other brands are pretty darn nice and maybe tempting to try, but I don't think they are any better (even though some are more expensive) than these.
The only thing I would say is "missing" from the line up is am amp with a tube pre in it - similar to the old Streamliner. But also, maybe not, you know.

There is a guy on TB who makes really nice cables. All mine are by him, including a couple custom "snake" type for my board and IEM set up. He probably has an orange that's pretty close. Maybe Jeff can share teh official color number code?
I use cables by either Rattlesnake or Tsunami, and I can get pretty close to the color if needed (I have color match software and could pull the orange color from the amp or cab). Tsunami said they were reaching out to Genzler and then just didn’t hear anything back. Not important that it be one company over another but I like small companies who integrate with each other to offer extras. But I like that tie-in with Bergantino and if I had Jim’s cabs I would like use that cable as well.
I use Rattlesnake, awesome cables. Hank knows his stuff.
And, Really excited about the NC-115T cab. Curious about pairing this with my NC-212. I'm guessing it would be thunderous and cause my keyboardist to pitch a fit because I'm too loud LOL
So excited about adding a 115 cab. I was about to build a tl606 with the deltalite I have lying around, may need to reconsider.
Also, I want a club #:

Also, I highly recommend the Magellan. Not sure if I'll upgrade the 350 to an 800, but it sounds fabulous with the Turner fretless peizo.
Is that a 210 115 set up? Been thinking about getting a Genzler rig. Was thinking of getting a 410. But that rig looks good. How you like it?
It's the 112 cab from the special deal combo. Bought from SuperSonic out of Topeka.
The 210/115 setup might be better, but I already have the 112. These cabs sounds greta.
I appreciate the back to back comparison. I'd love to hear a similar comparison across the different lines - each of the different 112s, or the two 115s, or the different 10 inch model cabs.
That would be interesting. Lots of Nu-Classic 12, 15, 212, 210 or BA 212, 210 or 12 but no BA12 and Nu-Classic12 and MG12 comparisons. That would be nice. I would guess the biggest difference would be between the BA cabs and anything else as that is the most original design. I had a BA10 and an MG12 at the same time and when I listened back and forth there was a little difference as the BA seems to have a better dispersion than the others, but really, they are all just great cabs.
Well it’s official! Proud owner of a Nu Classic 112
It is! It’s a straight 210 on a slant 115 and I love it. I’ve waxed poetically about it a number of times as it is robust yet flexible rig that brings punch, warmth, and clarity that just sounds so good.
Are you thinking of replacing your Mesa 2x15 (heavens?!) or just getting something to augment?
Looking forward to using the BA10-2 and BA12-3 combo for the first time on Saturday night! Going to see how it sounds at full force. I love that I could even add another one or two if I needed more volume, but I don’t anticipate that being necessary.
Looks like the Nu115 is the same price as the Nu212?? How? I would expect the 210 and the 115 to be very similar with the 210 probably being slightly more expensive. Here the 115 ($900) is more expensive than the 210 ($800)...Weird. You gotta really want a 115 to pass up on the 212 for the same price.
For example: Mesa Subway - 115 ($950), 210 ($1049), 212 ($1249). I would think the Mesa cabs cost more in production (metal grill, etc) to justify the higher cost.

No, keeping all the Mesa gear. I've got (2) SW115s, SW112, SW215, D800+, WD800, and the TT800. I think I want something in a 410 cab. Been seeing a lot of the Genzler gear. Just wanting to try something different.

@Lovep --- thank you for the continued interest in our gear. About your pricing observations, Yes the new NC-115T's cost is reflective of the current component and shipping costs for these quality products. Unfortunately there will be a price increase next week on the remaining products in the line which will make more sense with your observations.
