Ten Inch Bass Speakers

[Passinwind]

I would install four Radio Shack tweeters instead of the 10's for a significant reduction in weight.

Solid.

 

[Slevage]

Absolutely can recommend putting 10inch speakers in a 410!

I would also recommend not putting more than 8 of them in one cabinet, 4 would be ideal.

 

[And I]

are you sure a 4xcarrot cab wouldn't be better, given your extremely specific needs?

Lots of you are having fun with this, but the guy did ask for help. My 4th grade sense of humor finds this all amusing, maybe you could include what replacement speakers you have experience with in a 410 cab you own(ed).

 

[S-Bigbottom]

Ones that fit your boxe's parameters is what is needed.
What you got?

Internal dimensions?
Ports?
Measurements of them also.

Probably not all that helpful, we need to know what the OP owns or plans to build before offering suggestions. Or at the very least, whether it's ported or sealed.

all joking aside, Eminence Delta speakers are great. but you really haven't included anywhere near enough info to get any useful advice from anyone. is this an existing cab you own that you're replacing the speakers in? is this a cab you're building?

How about one 40 inch speaker, for that extra low end?

Do you use a HPF with that?

 

[gstaats]

The only successful speaker replacements I have done involved carefully measuring the cab to get and accurate internal volume of the cab, measuring the ports and then modeling the cab in winisd with the Thiel parameters from the driver manufacturer. You'll then find out if an off-the-shelf driver is available that may be remotely compatible with the cab.

Not to hijack the thread, but I have a pair of Ernie Ball Slinkies new in the package....what kind of bass should I pair with them?

This isn't necessarily/universally true.

I prefer to move one 4x10 cab on wheels than manage two 2x10s. Many of us also use trailers with ramps.

All 4x10 aren't 80+ pounds.

I would have no use whatsoever for a single 2x10 anywhere.

And although you didn't mention it, I wouldn't vertically stack the typically-narrow 2x10 cabs.

Universally I agree, no not true 100% of the time.

I'll even agree that not all 410 cabs are in excess of 80 lbs. but you are still handling a bigger box which may be awkward for some.

Congrats for those that have trailers, trucks, SUVs, and even me with my Prius would have no problem moving moving a 410 cab from one location to another so I'll agree on that point as well, but a lot don't. And I bet that more would have trouble transporting one than not. Not to mention the hoard of players moving to micro rigs, or no rig at all.

Indeed you are also entitled to your opinion as to which cab will work for you, and congrats on that. Some posters here are on an never ending quest to find one. LOL!!

99% of my work is in a larger horn/vocal band with PA support. 400 watts into my highly efficient Eden D-210-XST which can create up to 129 dB. is way more than adequate.

PS: I don't vertically stack my 210 cabs either. If I can't hear something creating 250 dBs, I need to hang it up..LOL!! or fix the problem, if you get my drift..LOL!!!

Good post Marko. Thanks for the response.

Yeah, I remember fondly the girl there who told me the long guitar cable was the same as a speaker cable for going from my power amp to non-powered speakers.

The Delta is very power limited in mechanical power handling, it's more of a mid bass speaker without a significant HPF in the amp.

Ideally you should go with 4 of them.

2 on each side.

If we had that info many would ignore it anyway, so...

Thoughts on bass speakers for a 4/10 bass cab.

With a 4X10 configuration, you're on the correct path.

10-4 there, good buddy!
