newbie looking for advice

Hi...I'm new to talk bass, but have heard great things. My first post!! I'm somewhat a new player (little over 3 years) but have landed in two gigging bands locally. I play a Fender jazz and Carvin LB20 and run a Line 6 Lowdown 300 to gig with. While it makes cool tones and is kind of "cool" with all it's bells and whistles, the volume is inconsistant...I don't find it all that powerful and I'm over it. I am currently looking at an Eden WT800 head, but would like some advice on cabs. I think I want a 1x15 and a 2x10 to run together...more for portability purpose (4x10 cabs are just too heavy). I'm really looking for advice on cabs to run with that head. I love the Eden tone...but haven't been able to play through many different cabs. Any advice out there? Thanks ahead of time!

I have played the line 6 lowdown 300 before and agree it puts out some fantastice tones, it volume doesnt carry too much, i have a 4x10 ashdown mag 300 evo 2 combo and it does sound great but lags slightly in the low end department i may buy a 1x15 to handle the low freq, maybe you could do that with your line 6 ?
