Double Bass Schroeder Cabinets

I play mostly upright jazz around Los Angeles but also have a three-horn band that calls for me to play bass guitar as well. I've been happy with either my first generation Contra or the combination of a Woods Ultra or Clarus with an Acme B-1 for upright but wasn't happy with the cabinets I was using with bass guitar. A very lengthy thread appeared in the bass guitar section on a new line of bass cabinets by Jorg Schroeder that was very interesting, and yesterday I bought one of the cabinets after having had a chance to play two of them at his house here in L.A. The cabinets sound incredible on upright as well as bass guitar, and you may want to check out the review I wrote in the other forum. http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1616798#post1616798

The 1210 cabinet I bought is going to be my standard upright cabinet going forward, particularly for jobs where more volume is required.
