Markbass Big Bang vs CMD 102P

Greetings,

I am considering a trading in my CMD 102P for the Big Bang amp.
I am presently running the CMD 102P into an Avatar 210 (Non Neo)

If I just run the Big Bang into the Avatar 210, would I lose much?
The 210 is equipped with Eminence Delta Pros and handles 700W at 4 or 8 ohms.

I may at some time get another Avatar if I choose this route.
It would be super helpful if someone with this configuration would chime in.

Thanks!
 
If you're in a playing situation where high volume is needed, then yes, you'll be losing much, as you're cutting your speaker surface area by 50%. Add that second Avatar, and you'll be back to where you started for the most part. The trade doesn't sound like it will offer much advantage, unless modular components is your ultimate goal.
