Thanks, I just tired it out with a nice, short, high quality 1/4" cable and it sounds fantastic. I will pick up a Speakon later today.1/4" works fine, but if you can get a Speakon, get a Speakon...
The rubber feet on my Traynor are just a tiny bit too far apart to sit nicely on top. Now I have to come up with a way to stack it....
Wow, I didn't know they were combo jacks!
Yep, And there's 2 of them so you can daisy chain to another cab. I'm digging this cab. I finally like the sound of my P-Bass. I haven't tried my Rics yet but I have a feeling they'll sound amazing through this cab.
My dream cab.
If I could justify it (carrying that box in a little Audi A3 would mean putting the back seat down, and rarely do I need so much oomph), I'd love one.
610 is awesome! It is almost useless to ask someone to assist you lifting it onto/up to a 36 in (just shy of 1m {39 in})stage/riser, but it is sweet. Even if you decide to raise the highs/treble on amp/bass it/they are definitely NOT piercing/razor sharp. Our drummer even complimented it saying something to the effect "I can hear when you play your high notes, but it doesn't hurt my ears anymore." Highs can get a little sharp if you push the treb/highs to like 3 o'clock but if you do that, your playing rhythm guitar. LOL I think my amp with pwr conditioner weighs more than the 610 LOL. Could you imagine if Bf made a 412??? Sheesh Good luck man!
For anyone else, a shallow (13" rackable depth) rack fits PERFECTLY atop the ST and or the 610. I rack both my amps, but use a shallow rack with my DB751. The 751 is a little deep to keep it all connected when the doors are on the rear, but it is secure and fits nicely atop both the ST and 610 respectively. No, I am not worried about either amp falling/rattling off when playing...unless some knucklehead body slams it or whatever else. While the cabs vibrate a little when playing, it is definitely NOT a concern since however the Barefaced team affixs the speakers ensures that the speakers pushout/project 99.99% out the front/working end of the cabinets.
As far as speak-ons versus 1/4" leads/jacks; 1/4" work, but if you cannot afford a speak-on lead/cable at least purchase 1/4"-speak-on adapters (about $10/pair USD). The adapters may come in handy anyways; not all amps that say "1/4" Speak-on Combo" actually can use either 1/4" OR Speak-on. Unless the amp manufacturer specifies "Dual Use" it probably is NOT. GK is the first to come to mind with their MB800. ...another reason I dumped it BTW.
Play well,

Fits in the trunk of my hatchback Impreza, I'd be surprised if it couldn't be squeezed into an A3 without folding the seats down.
You should not be telling me these things
However, I fit 2 Two10 cabs in there, but to do that I have to unlatch the back seats just to have room to manoeuvre... then once in place, the seats latch again. There's extra room for amp, stand,, FX case, a bag with clothes if staying overnight etc... but I doubt I could fit a 610. Too narrow at the back I think.
Yes, a couple of Two10 fit just right... but there's just no space for an extra Two10, the width is not there. The back of the boot is narrower than the front so I think It'll just go halfway and get stuck.
On the other hand... it's not like I'm finding a couple of Two10 lacking! But having used a 610 in the past... I'd love that feeling

Looking at pictures I see what you mean about having to tilt the seats to manoeuvre in the A3, probably a little tight.
Next time I have the cab and the car in the same place I'll send you a pic, if you can fit a 210 in sideways, 61 cm boot depth (sounds like you can) and have 92cm boot width then the 610 will fit. I lay mine on it's back and it takes up the entire boot, there is room to put my pedalboard and amp head on top but that's all.

A Six10 is only 6 inches taller than 2 Two10s. I think you could make it work.

Oh... so it is... just 91cm tall. I had simply assumed it would be a little less than 3 Two10 stacked.
Just when you think you're safe from GAS...
I don't need it I don't need it I don't need it... but dang I want it!
Hmmm... then I could sell the two TKS S112 cabs as they're a little redundant to me (but they're so pwetty and blue!
) which will go some way towards the cost of the 610... and there's the 30 day return policy if I end up not quite liking it... (as if!!!)Hmmm.
Yes.
Bad people. All of you. Especially you.
If I lay my Four10 down flat, I have to just unlatch the seats in the back of my Ford Focus ST Hatch. It fits quite nicely into the trunk of my wife's Kia Forte.
I put my 2 Two10 sideways like you say. It requires I unlatch the seats but I don't even need to fold them, it's just to give me that tiny weeny extra wiggle space to put the cabs in the boot. The latch back without pressing on them alright. I need to leave a gap from either side as the boot narrows a bit towards the deep end. However I hadn't really checked the size of the 610. I was just going visually by my impression that 3x Two10 will not fit... but I do think that I should be ok with the 91cm of the 610, with a bit extra to spare, certainly my stand and maybe a small bag. I use an oversized bag for my Mesa D800+ (good fit, with foam, but oversized because of the extra pockets on top and sides which act as extra padding and storage for cables)... but I can easily find another suitable bag...
There's definitely a possibility now (and I intend to get a slightly bigger car in the future anyway)...
Hmmm... sell the TKS cabs and one Two10... and get a 610. Evil plan!
