It was great weather here this weekend, but possibly one of the last warm weekends of the year, so I set up a (ridiculous) tribute to the Grateful Dead's famous "Invalid Link Removed" speaker system (and the great Phil Lesh himself) while I still could, with all the BF cabs I could get my hands on.

I use an Aguilar TH500 with a Super Twin T.
Plenty of power! The Super Twin replaced 2x112 Aguilar Db cabs. No comparison and much easier to schlep.

I've got my Super Compact for a couple of years now, but I'm still amazed by its performance every time I use it.
Yesterday it was incredible: we where playing an outdoor gig in a bandstand in a public garden. We kept our small PA for vocals and keys only.
I wanted to try my brand new Quilter Interbass micro amp: 45W @ 4 ohm and 33W @ 8 ohm.
It turned out to be just loud enough, it sounded great with just a little saturation from the amp (a nice one)
Kudos Barefaced, the Super Compact is The Best Bass Cabinet In The World (IMHO)

I've been using a TH500 through 2 Barefaced 112's, SC/SM and BB2/SM, for about 10 years and I've never had a volume problem. With the Gain at 12:00, I usually run the Master volume between 9:00 and 12:00. For the loudest bands I might go to 1:00, but never any louder. Barefaced cabs make every watt sound louder compared to other cabs I've used and the dispersion easily fills every corner of the room, and stage. I also use an AG700 which sounds great.
I'm consistently blown away by how loud my little Markbass 350w gets with my Super Compact.
This past wknd, we had a gig where we didn't have enough channels on the main board. Short by one. I told the guys not to worry about it, I'll stay out of the pa and crank my rig. Played to about 100 people. During the first set break, I polled around and the folks at the back had no issue at all hearing me. Albeit, the stage was raised about 4 feet which definitely helped, but the throw to the rear of the venue was about 40-50 feet.
Every time I decide to pull the trigger on another BF cab, I'm pleasantly reminded that I don't need it.

Anybody have any experience pairing a Two10 with a Tone Hammer 500? Curious if the combo would be too "dark" sounding.
Those One10s do get pretty loud, in a good way. Comparing to my Two10, I'm realizing the need for a head with greater tonal controls, espcially in the mids, to accomodate for the differences. The Two10 is huge sounding, understandably.
Just received email , BB3 on plane from Gatwick ,UK to me in 2-3 days !

If it had gone through Stansted it would have been 2-3 weeks lol
I've played my Three10T at home for a little while now. It sounded a bit thin/stiff/harsh at first, but now it sounds great. I don't know if that's my ears adapting or the cones loosening up, but I'm very happy. I've mostly been playing it with my Mesa WD800. I played one gig (2 sets of funk/R&B, Mesa WD800, no PA support) with it and it did great.
I totally lucked into finding a Two10 used last spring via GC - someone must not have known much about it because it was priced at $425(!) so obviously I had to buy it
Anyway it on its own with the TH the combo does seem kind of dark, but when I compared cabs and heads in various iterations with my GK CX210 and RB 400 it really wasn't as noticeable as I expected. Haven't gigged with it yet but I've had no issues during band practices.
If I was buying on my own I probably would have gotten the tweeter version just for flexibility but I'm totally happy with this one for the price. I do want to compare it with one of the 12s though…
