I have had an Ashdown 4-10 cab for some time now. I honestly don’t know the model of it, I bought it years ago through a bass tech on a tour I was working and he got it for me direct from Ashdown. I got it for the cost of materials… pretty sweet deal. All the info on its plate is hand written so I think it was an under the table deal. The cab kicks butt but is heavy as sin….. so recently I bought a RM-414T Evo II to go with it.
The 414T is a bit smaller and much lighter.
I used it by itself (powered by my Mesa D800+) at a gig this weekend. Holy cow, it sounded soooo good!!!
Nice low end and all the midrange that I like. I am very happy with it and it seems to pair well with my older cab.
Now I have a big rig that can be a “to go” package.
Both cabs are 600w 4 ohm. I can run my Mesa at 4 ohm with a single cab or 2 ohm with the stack…. I love versatility:)

Is it punchy with good thump? I’m on the fence about purchasing the same cab to pair with my new Orange Little Bass Thing. Thanks

Yes it is. Ive used the new cab by itself on a few gigs now. It performs great. I can feel and hear what I want to feel and hear.
