I'm planning to change my cab and amp configuration - At the moment I have BH800 cab and Hartke 410xl cab. The truth is I don't like the cab a lot, as it's too trebbly for my taste. I like the amp but I grown fond of the new Mesa D-800 amp and I'd like to switch it for mesa. I'd like to match mesa cabs for the amp and I'm wondering which one do I need. I need the rig for the practice and small venue gigs (like 50-80ppl max). I really like the 2x10 cab but I'm afraid it's 1/2 of my current Hartke (thought the mesa is neodymium - does the diffrecence is significant ?). The alternative is to go 2x12 but I dislike the dimensions of the cab, a little. What would you suggest ?
The Subway cabs are awesome and very light. However as formerly dedicated matched cab (15s) user, I now run a Subway 115/112 stack as they were designed to play well together.
I own a 112/115/D800 stack. Played the 112 at a gig in a big room as a standalone, before I took delivery of the 115. It was big and clear sounding the equal of my EA VL210 . The 115 as a stand alone kills also. That tiny little 112 drew stares and comments. The tiny footprint in verticle orientation is great for small stages. For rehearsal, it's a one trip deal bass, head, cab, mic stand. The tone is big and meaty, I usually hate tweeters, but I love the horn on these cabs. Trebley is not what you get out of these. Wide spectrum even fullness with tight and present bottom without boom. I have run my Rumble V3 500 head on these cabs and it too sounds killer.
