It's more about whether the FR800 can get me a great just breaking up Fender Twin type sound as well as loads of bass.

Find someone who has produced something close to what you want before ?

Tempting..

The mesa Four:88 is pretty light - about 30 lbs

I found this if it helps.

[color=#777777][font=Roboto, sans-serif][size=3]A major breakthrough for the live industry came in 1987, with Neutrik’s debut of the speakON created specifically for speaker connections. A new EU European Low Voltage Directive required that any connector capable of carrying more than 50 volts must be protected against inadvertent contact. Obviously, other connectors — such as banana plugs and 1/4-inch styles — did not meet this requirement.[/size][/font][/color]

Just gone through the relevant documents and I think it only applies to amplifier outputs (75v DC or greater) and not speaker cabinet inputs...

Even then my Mesa Four:88 only had jack type speaker sockets and was CE marked - perhaps it did not meet the 75v DC requirement?

The cabs are 1/4" jack only and would not meet EU safety regs i believe.

I'm not expecting them over here anytime soon.

What regs are those ? Plenty of guitar cabs with jack sockets only so unless there are bass cab specific regulations ?

Thought about a barefaced 410 ?

this won't be here long :-)

Everything is expensive

The irony is that I do not even need anything!

Me too... :-)

Going to be expensive though.. about £800 a cab here

Yep. http://www.quilterlabs.com/index.php/productpage/bassliner-series

I am so lazy that I find the thought of a combo peculiarly attractive

Nice.. a 2x12 stack I suspect would sound great..

Do they make bass cabs ?

Not out Bicester way, were they? I played for a band out that way who would match what you said (though never gigged with them, so can't be sure about the drummer) but I told them I'd leave after the booked gigs and they dumped me immediately. They were only a 'something to do on quiet nights' band for me anyway, been with my main guys for 4 years now.

Nope Banbury/Brackley based, but I had had the same conversation with the drummer a number of times... If I had wanted to join a thrash band .......... Main guitarist was a great player,well prepared and a really nice guy - the other guitarist/singer had no stage presence and appeared to want to tune his guitar between every song... And wanted to be in charge without doing any of the work :-)

Most recently control freak guitard/singer and a drummer who on the night played most the songs 20% fast (recorded gig so easy to run through a DAW to confirm.. ) His attitude was "so what"? More interestingly I offered to cover the gigs up until July, they declined. Last night was the next gig and they appear to have cancelled..

March ?

March ?

Yup - the overall ohmage of your two cabs is 2.7 Ohms.. Weird that the 410 is 8 ohms and the 210 4 ohms, but you have what you have...

Your amp might be stable into 2.7 Ohms (all of these things are an approximation) but if you push it, it may well go pop..

Is the amp an MA100?
