    If portability is you goal, probably not. But portability could just mean small size - in which case some of the smaller Ampeg cabs might fit your bill. If you want light, not the best option.

    Yeh weight is not too much of a factor (within reason), it is more size that I am concerned with.

    Have just posted in "new Ampeg" thread above, Am very happy with my PF800 and a pair of 210 Pro Neos. Very portable.

    [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Would anyone else recommend Ampeg? The [color=#000000]SVT-112AV could be a good option for me?[/color][/font][/size]

    I wouldn't rule out Schroeder cabs. Their 2x12 with 1 angled driver is very small and light and puts out a huge sound. Cheap by comparison to Berg, Aguilar etc too.

    What the build quality of these cabs like? They look quite 'DIY' in the photos I have seen?

    With £400 available I`d get one of the Barefaced Compacts going on here. Due to the Gen 3 range coming out, many more than satisfied Gen 2 owners are flogging theirs to get the new ones. Light, powerful, and as others have said, a good cab will make a good amp release its potential. My personal faves however are Markbass, so will also recommend these.

    Thanks for this, have you used the mark bass traveller series? Do you think 2 x 1x12 might be a good setup?

  5. Hi

    Yeh I think from what you guys have said the [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Bergantino & Barefaced seem to be the most popular options. I will have to keep my eyes peeled in the for sale section.[/font][/color]

    Get the best cabs you can.

    A good amp through OK cabs will only sound OK, but a good amp through great cabs will sound fantastic.

    But what are the best cabs I can? That's the problem? Haha

  7. Hi Guys

    I think a 1x15 may be a bit bulky, I don't have a lot of room in the car.

    I was thinking at rehearsals I could get away with one cab and just using the second one for gigs.

    I don't have an extortionate budget, probably around £400. I only need the one cab for now I can get the other a bit further down the line.

    I am using an Ashdown ABM EVO III 500.

    Thanks again
    John

  8. Thanks guys, so would you say 2 2x10's is a better setup than 2 2x12's?

    Also has anyone had much experience with the genz benz gear? Seems really good value but that also makes me wary.

  9. Hi guys

    I am looking to get a new rig but looking for something that is really portable without compromising too much on the volume or the lows.

    I have been looking at various setups of 2 1x12's or 2 2x10's but I am unsure what would be best.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    Cheers
    John
