Spector and Mesa..

IMO, doesn't get much better!
 
Can't go wrong with those cabs. I have a PH412 but kind of miss the PH410 I had as its just such a good sounding punchy cab. They are heavy to lug around, but can't beat the build quality!
 
Just curious what, if any, would be the sound difference between a Powerhouse single 12" cab from a Walkabout standalone single 12" cab. Any guys out there with both that can enlighten me?

These 2 cabs use a different construction method, and a different speaker. The PH cab uses our Tri-port design, and the Scout uses the down-firing passive bass radiator.
 
White will get dirty faster.... But it would be an eye catcher for sure.
But the MESA Vinyl is tough as rocks.. lasts and lasts

Agreed on all of the above - I probably have close to 150 gigs on my PH810, and the tolex still looks like new... The factory cover is getting a little beat up, but that means it's doing it's job, IMO...

Im thinking of pulling the trigger on getting the powerhouse 810 in snow white! What do you guys think of a white tolex and black grille? Im after opinions on this vs the standard black

I think the white will look killer! It'll show scuffs a little bit more, but the tolex on these cabs is rock solid, mine are also in like new condition. I always move them with the slip covers..

I'm in Winnipeg too. Let me know if you wanna try either of my cabs. I know you're set on the 810, but the 412 really pounds, too. It's a lot lighter and a little cheaper $$ wise, too.

Hey guys, I figured I'll go for the black. Im sure the white will eventually get dirty and in all honesty, the black just looks sick! I tried out a 2x12 today and it sounded pretty sweet but I preferred the 10 inchers over it, they both were amazing though. I think the 810's for me!
