Sealed cabs

GK 410 RBS. Sealed, no tweeter. Just the way I like it.

Mesa Traditional 610 and 810 are sealed,no tweeter. Great clarity.

The Peavey headliner 410 cabs are sealed.

Fliptops made me a sealed 4ohm 410 for my SVT classic. SVTs aren't supposed to power 8ohms which rules out a lot of cabs. It's served me well for 3 years and counting.

Seems with sealed cabs, you either get it or you don't. Some folks claim you can eq a ported cab to behave exactly like a sealed cab. Maybe they can, but I cant

Most of my gigs lately have been on a sealed cab I made myself to see what all the fuss was about

a bunch of the old fender bassman 2x15 cabs were sealed. i have a chopped 1x15 version of one and love it. so much punch and attack with that bad boy. the notes jump out at ya!

This works... V4b reissue and a 210AV

I will second the Mesa Traditional 610. Killer cab...its what I was searching for for years...

Here's what would work:
- Sealed. No ports, vents, resonator devices, blo-holes, passive-aggressive radiators, or other cleverly named devices.
- 610 because it's taller than a 410 so I can hear it, and better projection into the crowd than a low cab.
- No tweet or mid.
- 4 ohms.
- 24" wide for standard tube heads.
- Weight under 80lbs.
- Tilt-back wheeled design with rear skid rails.
- Tolex or Duratex. No rat fur.
- Cloth style grill.

You've pretty much exactly described the Barefaced Retro Six10 there Invalid Link Removed

Pricey when you add in shipping, and it's not sealed. Nice features though, wonder if it uses a Jensen, Faital or Fane?

My Hartke AK410 has impressed me enough to by a second one. (my 8x10!).

One other Berg cab, the NV425, somewhat of an unwanted stepchild of a cab, but a good sounding one

It's our own driver design, completely different to anything else out there. 'Feels' sealed (and if you want to give up some low frequency output (efficiency x power handling) then you can easily plug the hybrid resonator's outlet to make it a true sealed cab).

 

[Coolhandjjl]

Maybe that Retro Six 10 is the one to have. Wide enough for a true tube head to sit properly on, with good tonal options to select from, and no back breaking weight.

I love the Ampeg 210Av. I used to use 4 of them. I use a Peavey 215 now, but the Ampegs sounded better.
