Which Traynor cab?

[insomniac2295]

Thinking about buying the YBA200-2 head and would like a matching Traynor cab to go with it. Thinking about the 810 or the 808. Leaning more towards the 808. I play a 5 string. Help anyone? I've heard the 1x15+2x10 cab they make can sound more or less, "unfocused" compared to their other cabs.

I've spent a few hours playing through the Traynor 810, with the YB200, an SVT, and a BB750. It sounded best to my ears with the Mesa, but it was no slouch with the tube heads, either. I had no issues with it handling a B string.

all i play is 5 stringers ... i only use 810 cabs , ashdown mag810 early pre us model and a this ampeg 810e i picked up a week or so ago ... i never have a problem with my b string ... the traynor and the cabs handle it just fine . just to mention , i play loud rock covers and originals ,,,, so you may not like my tone at all .....

XC/TC 808 cabinets are wicked with a punchy low B (as punchy as low b gets i spose). There have been some very good reports about the new traynor 810 too.
