Barizaxman, I hate to bring it up, but your cat can't spell worth a crap. I recommend some remedial spelling classes for El Gato as soon as possible.
There are a number of folks here on TB that have been chosen by God himself, to go forth on the internet and correct all grammar, spelling, syntax, and punctuation errors. Seek them out. You owe it to your cat.

Everyone had a 7Pro these days. I need to spend some time with one and see what all the talk is about. And once again, great color and Barry did an amazing job. Glad you got what you truly were after.
Well, I got to gig with this sucker on Friday! After 9 months of writing and practicing, my original stoner rock band had our first gig. To make things easier on everyone, the bands agreed to share gear ahead of time, and I of course took this as a perfect opportunity to hear how my rig sounds from both the stage and the audience.
HOLY COW. I have never been able to hear myself on stage so well in my life! Like I mentioned earlier, I was a little concerned with how squatted the Dually physically is, especially being 6'5", but this was not an issue at all. I could feel the bass full force into my body the whole time I played, and with my Ric and the 7 Pro it sounded incredible! I got tons of compliments after the show, people asking me what cab I was using, no one believing me when I told them it only weighs 60 lbs, etc.
The other two bands also loved the rig. One of the guitarists just kept going on and on about how great he thought it sounded. One bassist used a jazz, the other used both a Ric and a jazz. The sound was very round, full, smooth and present, without being overbearing or harsh. The frequency response across all strings was very good (this is one of my favorite things about this cab, although it is likely a combination of the cab and the amp). You could hear everything each bassist was playing, 100% of the time. No getting lost in the mix in the upper register. Plus, the bass! You could feel it rumble in your bones.
Anyways, super impressed with how everything went. The cab is amazing in every way.

If I wasn't spending all my money on tuition and books for school, I'd be getting a dually for sure.
There's a licensed builder in Ottawa just a few hours north of me, and the stuff he's built looks great.
Congrats on your sexy awesome cab Lazarus.

Thanks for sharing your review Laz. Good to know you're loving that cab!
@landry.bass: Mr. Dekker certainly makes excellent cabs. If you decide to take the plunge, you are lucky to have such a great builder close by.

Cool cab (and I love the matching case on the 7pro), glad to hear the inaugural flight went well.
Nice to see someone liking their rig! Very cool. Someday I will also take a like plunge. Sooner than later I hope...
How big was the room? How big's the stage? How far do u stand away from yr cab?
Did you hear "100%"of yr bass sound when yr right up next to it?
Some of the stages I play are small & I'm standing right next to my rig.
Thanx Laz

Yeah I keep visiting that Shobass web site just about every other day. These seem like fantastic cabs for a great price. I'm dreaming of an Orange coloured one to put my AD200B on top of.
