Nice little rig- I consider it mini, though it's true level of "doomage" isyet to be seen.

Despite the fact that this stuff is pretty cheap compared to some stuff I've seen on here, it sounds great!! I have gotten many tone compliments from musicians and non-musicians alike.

I am surprised that nobody pictured that combo! That is now corrected :)

Weight
  • 5lb for the Focus 2R
  • 30lb for the Epifani 112
  • Total: 35lb
Power
  • at 8ohm the Epifani gives 350W (RMS)
  • while at same load the 2R gives 450W

Anyways, dream setup for bi- to tri-weekly rehearsal and small gigs.
I am using this with both BG and DB... it's great.
For more power and wind, I simply swap the cab for the Epifani UL410. At 4 ohm, 800W is plenty of reserves!

:hyper:

Still kicking myself in the @$$ for selling that cab. Sounds like you're getting maximum enjoyment. Sweet little rig!!
 
Those Yamaha cabs rock, I originally got one just to use as a small light practice deal and to take to play in churches. I was greatly surprised about how LOUD and how good it sounded, so much so I decided to order another one. Heh I'd almost be tempted to order two more and run my power amp down to 2 ohms on each side, but I think if I was going to do that I'd prob look more into picking up some 1x12's later.

I look at these and can't believe the price. I'm so dern tempted to get one.

The UL110s are messing with me 'ead too.

IME/IMHO, yes, the UL-110 is a better overall cab than the Yamaha, but the Epi certainly doesn't blow it away, and when you look at the price disparity, the Yamaha 1x10 is extremely impressive.

I wish the Yamaha was 10 lbs lighter and 8ohms. I also wish I would've picked one up when they were on MF. I'm not seeing them now.

Looks like we may be too late to horde up on those Yamaha 1x10 (2x10 & 4x10 either) cabs! Musicians Friend no longer has them up on the site. Only the amp is still there!
I see that!!! And it was listed last night. Only reason I didn't jump on 2 is b/c I don't want to run my amp at 2 ohms. Dern!! Amazing deal while it lasted.
 
Well...GC dot com will have at least one when the cabinet I just shipped back (before getting caught up on this thread) arrives at their receiving dock.

I am still amazed at how heavy that little cabinet is...38 lb shipping weight. It did sound good, but I found a cosmetically challenged Sonic B210T that I like better.

The weight is what held me at bay. If I had the extra flow and needed to locate those strategically for practice and gigs, it would have made sense to get a couple.

I'm a fan of the cosmetically challenged and/or used gear (not abused).
 
That's a Boss VF-1. It's a multi-effects unit that also works very well as a preamp. I've yet to post a thread about it, but the whole thing is a stereo rig: I'm running between two preamps (the Bass Buddy and the VF-1) into the Looperlative which is stereo, out to the QSC PLX21104, which runs a different channel into each cab. The Looperlative and the VF-1 are controlled by a MIDI foot controller, and I switch between them by using a footswitch attached to the MIDI A/B box you can see between the two preamps. That's a Radial Duplex for recording on the side of the rack. Everything in the rack is shallow as well, so the rack is just a 10.75" deep effects rack.
