Lightest 410 and 810

[Primakurtz]

The new Fender cabs are ridiculously light. The local shop had a 410 and it was like picking up a cardboard box.

+1 - I believe the Fender neo 810 is under 100 pounds. But, like everyone else has pointed out, there are so many good options now.

I think if I wanted to go BIG, but lightweight, I'd get the GK 4x12 - 1200 watts 99 lbs.

However, that's usually as unncessary as an SVT Fridge. The GK NEO (not the "Ultralight") 4x10 is 800 watts and 68 lbs (available in 4 or 8 ohms). Plus it comes with casters.

While there are a lot of nice NEO 4x10 cabs, I do find it annoying that many of them don't come with casters (e.g., Markbass, Avatar). Just because they are lighter than traditional cabs, does not mean they are featherweight or that the distance from car to stage is not long. Casters should be included with all 4x10 cabs -- even NEOs.

OK I'll say it. A fEARful 15/6 (or similar super 15 cab by LDS, Audiokinesis, Barefaced etc) will be as loud (if you feed it 500 watts) as a 410 and MUCH lighter, like somewhere between 35 and 55 lbs depending on whether you choose wood or composite. My LDS 15/6 goes lower, louder and clearer than any 410 I have heard and weighs 55 lbs. It's a cinch to move and easily fills a medium bar without PA. If you want a traditional 410, however, it ain't that.

+1

Smaller
Lighter
Goes lower
Goes louder
Greater power handling
And IMHO sounds better than any commercial cab I have played.

My GK 410 neo is pretty light for a 4x10 cab but I would go with two 2x10's if I could do it all over again. Moving that thing back and forth to practice is irritating. I'd also get a 4 ohm load instead of an 8 ohm load, now I'm stuck with the only good extension option being another 4x10 as well.
