After having the Little Mark II over a week or two now, i think it is an amazing piece of gear. This little thing has HUGE low end, sound punchy, and the filters are great for rounding out the 'punch' if need be. Very powerful and super light too. It has more low end than my Trace GP12 SMX!!!

The only downfall that i have found up to now, is that with my Trace 1X15, i seem to be getting alot of 'booooom' with that HUGE low end it has! I don't think 15" are perfect for this beauty! (and yes, i do blame this to the 15!)

As I've posted too many times, it's always about the mix and match. The somewhat wide tone of the LMII works best IME and IMO with either mid punchy cabs, like the EpiUL's or the newest EA 210 (the revised NL-210, which is very midrangey), or cabs with a somewhat compressed or chopped off low end, like the Berg HT112's and the smaller Schroeders like the 1212L.

FWIW, I find that it works very well with my Berg HT115.

I would think that's a pretty good matchup, since the 115UL has quite a bit of mid definition, and doesn't extend super low... I bet that sounds great!

It does Ken
It sounds clearer than my ill fated UL212.It does have a nice low end, not boomy at all. Even my low B sounds clear. I would say its less punchy than the UL212 but i only gigged once with the MB/UL212.
Certainly as a stand alone the UL115 is my all time fav but ive not played many cabs.

Blame it on that cab, not fifteens. The right fifteens can kill with this amp.

Here we have my modular rig - traveler 102p, standard 102hf, and a LM2.
