Well, I finally paid the remaining balance, and brought it home. Right now, I’m using my Aguilar TH500 to power it. I’ll soon be pairing it up with my GED-2112, Crest CA9, and my pair of Mesa PH212s.

Ain’t she pretty?!? :drool: :thumbsup:

How much does it weight?

I think it’s 135 lbs. And just like the other Powerhouse Series cabinets, it’s built like a brick outhouse. :D

But it’s not as bad to move as I thought it would be. It has recessed handles on it’s top rear, rear skid rails, a kick plate, and built in casters. And Mesa put some thought into where the side mounted handles are placed.

I love it’s tone! And I can’t wait to hear how it sounds when I’m running my GED-2112’s “Drive” channel into it.:woot: :hyper: :bassist:
 
This is a genuine question. Why have a rig so loud that you need to wear ear plugs?

Just like every other amp, this amp has a volume knob, (-well technically speaking, this particular amp has 4 of them) so it can be played at a quiet volume too.

My smallest amp rig, an Aguilar TH500 and a pair of Aguilar GS112 cabinets, can be played loud enough that I’d use earplugs using it too.

Let’s say that this particular rig is for my Mid Life Crisis. While other guys in Mid Life may go out and buy a sports car, or a Harley, I chose to put together a ridiculous amp. :D :thumbsup:

And every bit of my amp gear can be scaled down depending on volume needed and the size of the room.

I have this same cab and it sounds fantastic. I've used it with a few heads and they all sounded their best coming through this cab. Finally got my hands on an M9 Carbine and I'm in hog heaven. And yes the mobility is great for such a big cab. Enjoy!
