Light weight low end

The Subway cabs are obviously popular and great sounding, but I'll throw the Genzler BA15-3 into the mix. Very strong (and not muddy) lows and the mid/upper drivers give a smooth, clear, balanced, and well-dispersed response.

That description is exactly why I use the Subway 115. Man I would love to do a shootout between these two cabs!
 
Those are nice cabs. I only ever played one with the Terror Bass thougj. How's the baked in tone?

It’s pretty low end heavy as their are no tweeters and it’s ported. I use 2 of them with a Terrorbass 500 or my Ashdown ABM 600. I pretty much run the bass control on my heads down around 9 O’clock, Miss at about 3 O’clock and treble around 1-2 O’clock. I get a TODn of compliments from sound guys and other bassists. Mainly using Spector Basses but occasionally Fender Jazzes.

Yeah, I recall having to run the bass on the TB at 0 (it's neutral, I suppose) because of how bass and dark that head was.
