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!

My biggest/fullest rig would be two Fender Pro 410s stacked. I do have a MarkBass 2x15 cab, but mostly use a GK 2x12. (If my TC Electronic 115 combo hadn’t been stolen, I’d probably be using that most of the time.)

I guess using a pre/power-amp rig (BMax/QSC GX5) I could combine more of the above, but I’d never do that.
 
A big purple pair of 2x12s for me...

I absolutely love the way these things sound. I also love the sound of one of them, but the pair makes the magic...

Also a huge fan of what the 12s do compared to the 10s. Perhaps it's a generalization, but I've played around with the Aguilar 2x12 as well as my own and there is just something more complex about the sound compared to 10s.

If I were to start all over again, I’d probably get two 1x12s and be happy.

Good Lord, the stacks of stuff I have that I’ll rarely if-ever use again.
 
A pair of Fearful 15/6/1s matched to a rockin' Alembic F-1x tube preamp and a slew of effects and I'm ready to play anywhere!
