The Drivers in your Full Rig

[Passinwind]

Maybe you have two smaller cabs instead of a single larger one. Whatever the case, I want to know about the drivers in your full rig, the largest rig you make out of whatever cabs you own. Go!

I use a single 112 98% of the time on my gigs. If that's not loud enough I basically don't want the gig.

My largest rig would be:
2 X 15
1 X 12
4 X6
2 X 4
5 X 1, all run as 5 channel surround. Never gonna leave my living room though.

1x15 and 2x10, but usually it's one or the other, I rarely use the two cabs at once!

 

[seang15]

I voted 4x10, as that's indeed my "full rig." But what about 1x18? Just curious, thanks.

 

[B-string]

My largest rig to date was a 412 + 215 and a single 15. So 412+315.

 

[scottfeldstein]

what about 1x18?

Surely not

 

[Fuzz Aldrin]

A 410 is plenty for me. I had 2 112s, but my "mini" stack just couldn't keep up with my loud band.

 

[smogg]

I voted 2x12 because that is what I use most of the time. But, sometimes I go with my 1x12 combo and sometimes I put it all together for a 3x12 vertical stack (those are always earplug gigs )

 

[dhsierra1]

2-15 and soon to have a 4-10 + 6" mid (vertical stack).

I also have a two 1-10 rig for smaller gigs scheduled to be converted to 12s in the spring.

Bass horns and tops. Trailer is required.
These are useful for very loud, outdoor gigs requiring solid bass and 105dB+ at the audience position.

Our regular paying gigs are intimate and indoors where a single E140 is sufficient for 85dB at the audience position.

I voted 810 because that's what I gig the most, but I also gig a 215 sometimes - depends on the gig...

I've still got my 70's SVT with the 810 "fridge" bottom, but I don't count it as "my rig" because it's so obnoxious to transport. I'd been gigging with a single Neo 212 for the past couple of years, and just recently got a second 212 cab - if only to get out of the shadow of my guitarist's new Marshall stack. The dual 212s move a lot of air, pretty comparable to the 810 (though with a rather different sound), but my God, they are *so* much easier to load/unload!

 

[RickenBoogie]

3x12, but not listed in poll. Yes, it's a 4 ohm 2x12, with an 8 ohm 1x12 for the "full" rig.

It took awhile to find the old photo, but this is Link Removed.
This is his PA sub setup, but could be used for bass in a Who Has The Biggest Toys competition...

 

[wcriley]

I checked off 2x12, but it's actually 2x12 + 2x6.5.

 

[John Webb]

3X12 and 2X6

I got the same......a 2460 and a 1260! Sounds so good!

I actually own multiple 2x112 rigs, and intend to use two 1x12s at least 90% of the time - once I'm finally up & gigging again.

They are:

- (2) LDS nEARful 12/6/1
- (2) Baer ML112 two-way (w/6" midrange driver)
- (2) Acme Sound FullRange 112 (with concentric tweeter)

But I also happen to own a third Acme FullRange in reserve - for whenever I might need to pump out big-time low end volume in a large room (driven by my Carvin B2000). And as the question was: 'number of drivers in one's full rig', I suppose the stack of (3) Acme FullRange 112s would have to qualify as the fullest rig I own.

Biggest gig rig? These days it's 1x15 and will soon be 4x6.5.

Size doesn't really matter though. I use my lower wattage amps use bigger cabs (410, 412, 215, etc.) but rarely take them out to shows. I need to keep my footprint small and fill the house most places here...

 

[FC Bass]

2x 2x10 and 2x 1x15 (4x10 and 2x15)

Isn't there a setting that allows more than one Poll answer?

 

[scottfeldstein]

OP here. This is fascinating. Thanks for the replies and the votes, everyone.

I was anticipating quite a few 2x12 answers out there and that does seem to be the case.

I'm a little surprised at the number of 2x15s. As of this writing there's as many of those as there are 810s. I wouldn't have expected that.
