Show Your Love For 15's - Post Those Cab Pics!

Here are my Genz Benz 115s

You could get a crossover and with another 2 115s feed the bottom 2 with the streamliner and the upper 2 with the 9.2 cross it about 450-500hz or so. Or just slave one of the power sections and run them both full into the 4 über 115s.
...With speakers so loud you could blow a womans clothes off... :D
 
My church rig - Ashdown ABM EVO II 500 15" and 15" cab.

That is a sweet rig, my friend. You might love it even more if you stick a FaitalPRO 15PR400 in that DB 115 box. I did (the 4 ohm version) and couldn't be happier. Just don't tell the guys at Aguilar about it. :)

What kind of tone difference did you notice? I really like the sound of the stock DB115, and am a little shy of fixing something that isn't broken.

I really liked the sound of the stock DB 115, too. But since I've become a 'one cab on the gig' sort of guy I got interested in a way to change my DB into a 4 ohm cab. After reading reviews by johnk_10 regarding the Faital I decided to take the plunge. Also had someone run WinSD for me to see if it was feasible. It was. In addition to changing to 4 ohms I wanted to lose some of the hooded, mid-range forward characteristics of the cab and get a slightly more open sound. That is how I would describe the change. Yes, it still can be heard in a loud, dense mix. The low end remained large and in charge. And it weighs about 59 lbs now. I still have the original Aggie/Emi speaker so I can change back at any time. Hope this helps.

Edit: One thing I forgot to mention. Besides the 'slight' increase in perceived volume that results from changing from 8 ohms to 4, the 15PR400 seems to be a more efficient speaker regardless. The increase in perceived volume was significant.
