opinions...best 410?

[MJ_Sotti]

Berg is winning. Anyone try a Aggie DB410?

 

[Mildew Jones]

And of course Eden D410XLT a Standard for years in many studios.

I used one for years, is a beast...also weighs a ton, old school magnets. It's retired to my music room in favor of some nice light 2x10 Markbass cabs, but only for ease of transport. I ran the 4x10 with an Eden 2x10XLT (and Traveler head, still use it), was a killer rig until some scumbag stole my 2x10, then became a little less killer.

Mesa Boogie Traditional 410.

It's sealed and it's one of the best.

yes, but it needs to have gun metal gray sparkle tolex to maximize the attack of the notes

I'm sure Mesa could make that happen.

Depends on your tone goals!
And the volume.
And speaker size only tells you the size of the speaker.
Do you play 5 string? Detuned? Effects, sub octaves? Distortion?
Lowd n low? Ampeg Hlf 410
Bergantino
Epifani
Mesa

I have not tried the Aggie; but, it is no doubt a quality cab.

Do you have weight specs? Also, you mentioned sealed cabs; which gets into what your tonal goals are. And finally, there is budget. Need a little more clarity on those, especially if you are interested in 12's, which have had a lot more development than the 410's.

And just completely shooting from the hip; if you like sealed, I would look at the Berg NV610. That's about as good as sealed gets in a cab that can be schlepped to standard club gigs. IMO. GL

My two favorite 410 cabs are Ampeg 410HE and 410HLF.

I was trying to find that and only came up with the "Traditional Powerhouse" which has a "Tri-Port design." Is there another one that's sealed?

 

[Pocket Grub]

I'd wager that Greenboy Fearless F115 would out thump (almost) any 4x10 or 6x10. Why limit yourself to one cabinet design?

I stand corrected... it's the Mesa 610 and 810 Traditionals that are sealed cabs.

 

[The Regulator]

Ampeg SVT 410HE

 

[macmanlou]

Have you considered stacking 2 210s vertically?

 

[ldryder]

looking again.

tried a bunch, have I missed any?

I really like the sound of my Aguilar cabinets but if I had to haul something around these days, it would probably be a Fender Bassman 410 Neo.

 

[LowStringNinja]

I think it depends on the application..I've got a Markbass rear-port 4x10 that sounds crisp & tight, and sitting on top of a 1x15 it compliments the full tone of both cabs well...but by itself doesn't have enough low-end for me. If I had to go with only one cab, it'd probably be the 15 (with a horn in it)..or maybe a 4x12.

 

[David Jayne]

Many with experience with different 410's (not me) will tell you the Bergantino is perhaps the 'best' all around, as I've read here over the years. I've never used anything but SWR's and am very happy with my current one, a Golight 410. Unfortunately no longer made as you may know. Would like to try a Berg sometime. I've tried a few other cabs by Epifani (310), GK and Schroeder (115's) and Bag End (210) but keep coming back to the SWR. Just sounds great and brings the heat when needed.

 

[noahw1]

Sorry, I'm not being helpful but my favorite 410 is actually 2 210s for the flexibility that setup offers.

 

[JJR58]

The Ampeg Heritage 410HLF is the best 410 I've heard.

And along with that thinking, but in the range of twelves would be the 212av, fantastic cab.

 

[JBNeedsBeer]

Orange OBC410 wins two awards for me - best 4x10 and hardest 4x10 to move.

 

[Bassworship1]

I would have to say Ampeg Heritage 410. By far the best cab I've ever heard or played through.
