New Aguilar SL110 cabs.

What about the bottom flap of the Tukis!?
The advantage of using this array of the cover.
First time I’ve tried one with the bottom flap. I mainly want to protect it from other gear in the car like an evil metal hand cart that could potentially gouge up the underside of my nice and mint, chocolate cab!
 
At $700 you can get a Barefaced 110 that will destroy the Aguilar in every way imaginable as well. Tough sell.
This is what I ended up with, a BF One10T, because it was one of the few very good cabinets that size. It sounds wonderful and uncolored. The nerdiness of the Barefaced YT videos resonates with me too. The delivery was 2-3 months.
Had the Aguilar 110 been available, I would certainly have considered it. Their stuff is great too, if you like that sound, and my local shop usually has them to play.
Will Mesa follow suit and make a 1x10?
 
Agreed, we need to get them on Talkbass so we can give them some feedback an advice.

Still holding out on an AG350 version, but I have to agree… they’ve done a lot in a small amount of time. I especially dig the ceramic speaker choice in these SL110’s.

It would be nice to have an AG350 with a USB port to operate the amplifier with a power bank. Mobile and flexible solution for independence from the power grid. ideal for street music. A nice idea to be able to play bass by the sea, in the park or just sitting outside. I can easily imagine the top paired with an SL110... I don't know whether this can be implemented efficiently from a technical point of view

I'm seeing double of everything here. Amps, cabs, strings. Oh my. Beautiful photo.

One a more serious note, why the set of four? Or rather, why not get a couple 2x10 cabs?

Well, I have a Poseidon Green SL210, but I like that these have ceramic drivers and I can use as many as I would need for each gig. With the AG700, I could run three of them, and if I link both of my AG700, I could run up to six! It’s not the most cost effective method of getting a modular 6x10, but it makes me happy. :)

It's a bit ironic that this sl110 cab comes out and the TH-350 head is discontinued. Not sure about the reasoning behind that but I suspect it was powered too closely to the TH-500. Personally I think I'd have kept the TH-350 in lineup and parted with the TH-500 leaving the TH-350 and TH-700. Anyway, I am sure glad I have my 350, it's great little amp and packs a punch. As far as the sl110 cab, it surely looks nice but for $700 I think there are better options out there. For $800 you could get a Genzler Array BA10 series 2 cabinet with twice the power handling, better dispersion and more efficiency. If the Aguilar were priced around $500 I think I'd be all over these, they certainly have that cute factor.

Totally agree on the Tonehammer 350. I owned both the 350 and 500. I kept the 350.
Also, the SL110 with ceramic driver is not a "Super light" cabinet at 23 lbs. It's more like a DB series cab. I owned the DB 210 and it was 49 lbs, appx 2x the weight of the SL 110.
 
Mannnnn....
Sorry for the necro, but I just got these and just love em.
I'd mainly been running my little TH 350 through an Ampeg 115 which was totally fine, but I was shocked by how good these two sounded on stage the other night. Prob the loudest and gutsiest small cabs I've used. Crazy strength-to-size ratio (even though yeah, they still have some heft for an "SL" 10 cab. They were equally effective w the upright, electric and fretless, too.
