Good, cheap 210

[dbsfgyd1]

That works out well then! A lot of people around here have a preference for "more" low end. I too, can recommend the SVT-210 AV, except...… it depends how loud you need it. Mic'd with monitors, and you'll be just fine. If you need to depend on the cab for monitoring, you may need to look elsewhere. It's one of the best sounding colored cabs I have used in a while, and while it is plenty loud for what I would expect out of the average 210, it isn't going to slay any of the NEO112 options out there in volume.

Good point, cab efficiency is an often overlooked criteria.

Hartke 210XL sounds great to my ears - get one used "for a song"

I’m not a Big Harte fan, but the OP could probably snare 2 of these cabs used for his budget, and have a decent modular rig.

I know you said 2-10 but...

If weight is not an issue this will move more air than any $150 you'll ever spend.

Sorry. Off topic. Just checking your area for deals.

I would love to snag a pair of AV210s. Those are the coolest little cabs!

I liked the TC RS210’s I had much more than the ampeg 210AV’s. FWIW

When I think good and cheap... the RS210 is exactly that. I think I paid under $300 each for mine which were essentially mint.

I've never tried the RS series. I'm rocking through two K series 212s. But, I tried a K210 and loved it before I decided on my 212s. They just had more oomph and volume. Nice growl to them too. I'd like to try the RS series at some point. That might be my next gear upgrade depending. They are the higher end TC models right?

Find a used Carvin brx10.2 new cab. Massive sound at around 45lbs

 

[mcnach]

looking for suggestions on a good cheap 210. I kind of leaning towards a sealed box. Peavey Headliner? Ampeg SVT-210 AV?

Good AND cheap?

That's going to be hard.

Define 'good' and 'cheap'.

In my experience, most Peavey cabs are decent. They may not be the best, but I can always work with them. Same with the Fender Rumbles, although Peavey seems better built.

and I'd definitely go ported, not sealed.

I have (had) very good experience with
Warwick 2x10 cab
(current) Ashdown MAG 2x10 cab.

Good luck.

You're going to need a good amp too. No point in finding a good cab and using a rubbish amp to drive it. Welcome to the world of GAS ( Gear Acquisition Syndrome) which gets most of us at some point.

GK CX210 are a great value; really loud and clear, and lightweight for not being neo. Also more vertical dimension is a nice aspect.

Find a used Acme B2

I have a Peavey 210TX ported cabinet that sounded great with the original speakers. I put in 2 Eminence Delta Pros rated at 350W RMS each, and run it with an Ampeg SVT Pro III. I love it!

Hartke 210 Hydrive... I have 2 and a 115. That gives me such flexibility and I have gigged with just 1 210 many times.

 

[dirtychinchilla]

Fender Rumble 210. Just got mine and I love it, and it's so light.

 

[Luciferiad]

I have a Headliner 210. I like it. And the price was right.
