Low Down Sound Club: V2

[trainyourhuman]

Thanks for the replies everyone!

I've always liked the sound of 10s - which is why I'm sort of stuck on a 210 + something else.

I'm looking at Markbass amps again as well.

If you're going with a traditional 210, don't pair it with a 15/6 or 12/6. The 210 will be practically invisible. Go with a pair of 12/6's and you'll have more than enough to handle any of your gigs with ease.

if you really like the 10's thing-and there's no reason you shouldn't-two well designed 210's will perform extremely well, and give you the degree of modularity you're looking for.

they'll stack into a regular 410 config, or, stack vertically too, which i really enjoy.

... just got off the phone with Don .
my second 15/6.5 cab should arrive tomorrow !!

patiently waiting for the FedEx truck ...

 

[rpsands]

For people who like 2x10s, I recommend 12/6's with variable attenuators using a 6nd410 instead of the alpha 6.

With that config you can crank up the sensitivity of the mids and get a really rocking 2x10 type sound. I do that with my 15/6 occasionally

Can I ask when you put your order in for yours?

I thought I'd have mine along time ago. To be honest if I knew the wait time was going to be this long, I would have to think hard about pursuing these cabs. Its been 5 months (from Febuary) and he hasnt started mine yet.

Do y'all think that the 12/6s can be configured to offer slightly different tones, yet still compliment each other when you run both? Maybe one with a tweet and one without?

Also, are there many (if any) 6 string players out there using this cabinet? I love my 6s...

You can definitely do one with a tweet and one without, but that's as far as I'd go. You can leave the mid driver off of one too actually but then it wouldn't be usable standalone realy.

depends on the horn and crossover, ime

I must emphatically agree with everyone who has suggested getting two 12/6s or 12/6/1s. With the 18 Sound 6nd410 mid driver, I also agree that you could eliminate one of the tweeters, unless you play upright and actively strive for those percussive overtones.

I'm selling two well-known, great-sounding 2x10s that will be surpassed by fEarful-design 15/6 and 12/6 cabs from LDS that are more efficient, are as small or smaller, and go as low or lower than the 2x10s.

 

[silky smoove]

My experience with an LDS built nEarful 15/6/1 (3015LF, 6ND410, tweeter, and Ralf Patterson's 1200hz crossover) is that you end up with varying degrees of the same basic tone. I can tweak the L-Pad for the midrange and the tweeter quite a bit and still end up with the same basic tone. Don't get me wrong, the tone does change, but it won't be a night and day difference by dialing the L-Pad's.

I will say that these cab designs take EQ changes VERY well. I can get a lot of different tones out of mine by altering the EQ on my amp, or selecting a different pickup.

They do low B very well and I've played guitar through mine and it sounds very good to me in the upper registers.

 

[Foz]

make good eDrum monitors as well

 

[rpsands]

I've used mine for E-drums and it sounds good even without the horn. Would be better with though

 

[Foz]

yup

So our previously discussed 2x10's have been pushed out by these Nearfuls? Cool! I am on the waitlist for a 1515/66.
I'll keep those 2x10's for small footprint stage space gigs but will wait with anticipation for my LDS

 

[Raggy]

Has anyone got any opinions on how the 15/6 cabs would perform with a Markbass SD1200. I have got the urge to get two

 

[DaveDeVille]
