Which cab to go with MarkBass 210 combo?

A little while ago I got myself a MarkBass 210 combo and am very happy, especially with the portability of the thing (having previously run with an Ampeg SVT3 Pro head and 410HLF cab... nice sound, but a bitch to carry up several flights of stairs).

I love the combo, but want to have another cab just in case I need more air movement at larger gigs ... I am thinking a quad box, or maybe a 15. I would like to keep it fairly light, after lugging the Ampeg 410 monster. :rollno:

There are several MarkBass cabs that'll fit the bill which I may go with due to the fact I like the combo ... but does anyone have experience using other brand cabs with the LMBII combo? Eden? SWR? Cerwin Vega?... :)

FYI: I play a MM Stingray and Fender P American Deluxe (active basses) doing finger funk and slap stuff

Thanks!
 
Many TB'rs like Bergantino cabs with MB heads.

That said,I have the MB 210 that Jimmy M suggested which is a fine match if you like the sound of the combo and just want that louder.I'd have bought the 410 if I'd had the dough.....

Some SWR cabs are somewhat mid-scooped IMHO,which might sound good with the mid forward nature of the MB combo.

I would stick with tens myself tho others like to mix a 15 on the bottom.Just take your combo around and try as many cabs as you can.Make sure you only plug into 8 ohm cabs as your MB combo can only go down to 4 ohms.


Hope this was helpful.
