Official Barefaced Bass Cab Club

oh man. hooked up the super compact to my old 66 fender bassman. that combo screams! i had written off the bassman as a bit soggy ( kind of woofy and undefined... i love tone terms). but with this speaker it really shines. punchy as hell with lots of breadth. sounded sweeter and warmer than my blue check sb12 fliptop, and thats saying something. the sb started to sound narrow and boxy in comparison. to be fair the bassman has twice the wattage, but man oh man.
the bassman of course also shreds with the one10 i have. very barky and in your face. and killer overdrive tone when cranked past 7. 10 is pure face melter.
but with the SC, the fender can really stretch out, and show its smooth and warm fenderness but at the same time enjoy a tight and effortless attack courtesy of the barefaced 12". wonderful stuff!

Have you tried using the flip top amp to drive the super compact?

I generally use my Orange TB1000 for my SC.

thats definitely something ive had in mind! the SB12 doesn't have a speaker jack, as you may know. The amp connects to the speaker through the latches of the flip top lid. But SOMEDAY ill get my B15 and B15S back from the shop. they've been there since before i acquired the SC. But yes! i cant wait to hear the 60watt B15S through this baby. ill be sure to report back, when we really get to the bottom of this thing!

Woohoo. Congrats, almost.
I've had my Two10 for about two years. Just picked up a Quilter BB800, and I have to say, this combo rocks hard and sounds fantastic. If I close my eyes, it sounds like an SVT/fridge. Then upon opening them, it's like; Honey, Who shrunk the rig?
Best tone out of it yet and that's saying something cause my Bassman 100T is stellar through the Two10 as well.

How long after final payment did you get tracking info? Paid for my super twin last Wednesday and haven't heard anything.

Mine had a delay due to issues with the new impedance switch (I chose this option before it was listed on the website, but I don't believe mine was the first cab to have it). So it was 27 days. But they did not claim to be done with the cab when they requested final payment, but rather said that it was "in hardware now so won't be too long."

I tried searching without much luck. Anyone here running a TWO10 plus ONE10 for a triple stack? Seems like it would be super portable and cover quite a bit of ground.

It was talked about at a few points in the thread. Lots of folks liked the idea. I believe Alex had commented that it wouldn't create a significant performance difference over a single Two10, and certainly not as much as a second Two10 would. The biggest benefit of the One10 would be getting part of the sound source closer to ear level.
