This old chestnut again... https://barefacedbass.com/technical-information/mythbusters1.htm

2 x 8 Ohm cabs will present a 4 Ohm load to the amp.

There's a thread in this very forum on a 12" cab build. Well worth a read. The current (G3) barefaced 12" driver is, AIUI, a tweaked Eminence Kappalite. Previous Barefaced 12's used an off-the-shelf Kappalite 3012HO I believe.

Small but important point...The OP's smaller cab isn't a 110. It's a pre gen3 (1x12) Midget - a quite different beast. There's some info re: the Compact/Midget pairing at https://barefacedbass.com/product-range/midget.htm

Can't say I blame him.

Plonk a nice heavy amp on top. Sorted

The things people find to fret about...

That's exactly how I do it. Not sure why, and for me it's nothing to do with orchestra's.

No, not just you.

That's fine if they'll play ball. When I contacted them about my sticky stand they weren't even slightly interested...

Once, in the '80's, my Acoustic head went up in smoke. Literally. No spare. I've carried a backup ever since, and never needed it...

A bit of a moot point if you use a debit/credit card, as they don't debit the card until the goods are despatched.

Removed, after thinking straight...!

Mine too. Zoom B3 with either a dedicated patch, or one of the 'virtual pedals' assigned to an EQ 'pedal'. Just mute eveything to swap basses.

EQ pedal? Multi-fx unit? Loads of possibles, none of 'em necessarily correct/best/easiest...

I know Ash. If you want to get in touch, give me a shout.

I like an amp to make a sound that I like. I don't care what's inside the box, or what the specs say.

I bought a can of Servisol about 10 years ago. I reckon it'll see me out. (Likewise the bottle of Ax Wax...)

I came sooo close, but I've already got one and couldn't convince myself that I need two !

One of the EQ sliders? (Not in circuit unless the EQ switch is on) ??

If it works for you, do it. No approval required

What Jack said. The Dominator, and Dominator Bass are the same amp with a different speaker. 12" in the Dominator, 15" in the Dominator Bass. There's also the Power Musette mk2, which is again basically the same amp, but fitted with a different (dual cone?) speaker that was supposedly better suited to keys. I had a PM mk2 - only sold it because, to get that nice valve break-up, it had to be somewhat cranked, which was stupid loud...

FWIW I've an old (70's?) Carlsbro 60W head. I doubt it was designed as a bass amp, but I used it as my main amp for bass through most of the '80's. Still sounds nice, and more than loud enough for most pub-type gigs.

Those numbers (97/100dB) are sensitivity figures. Not output - max. SPL. They don't tell you how much juice you can feed it, before it runs out of excursion and farts out.
