Seismic Audio 210 cab

I am looking to pair the SA210 cab with a 440 Live 210 cab. Both cabs are 8ohm, I will be powering it with the Orange Little Bass Thing. That will be running 500 watts to each. I do not have any knowledge of the SA210, but I love my 440 Live 210
 
Seismic Audio cabinets are heavy because they are built with MDF: only the baffle is plywood. I would not own a cabinet made of MDF. That said, some users think they sound okay.
If you love the 440 Live, why not get another one?
The Orange LBT is 500 watts RMS into 4 ohms, so it will be 250 watts to each cabinet when both are connected.

I wasn’t familiar with 440, looked them up, and I found them interesting, like an upscale Avatar. That being said, Seismic has always been an extremely budget, psuedo-custom enclosure company, and as mentioned above, made from MDF. Pairing might work, might not, depending on the drivers. Is the Seismic a killer deal? What’s the attraction? There are other companies that do that sort of thing, from Avatar, of course, to Basson to Mojotone, with varying results, plus old school stuff like KK and Mitchell.

I got the 440 used from GC for half the price new. I purchased the SA from GC used for 143.00. I will try it for a couple of gigs. If it does not sound right I will return it. Thanks

Thanks, yes it was 143.00 used on GC. I will try it and see, if I do not like the sound I will return it.
