I'm looking for [b]£350 for the pair[/b], collected from Maidenhead. Prefer not to split as they work best as a pair anyway. Amp in the pic not for sale yet but may be talked into it at a later date.

Really sorry about the pics, I'll get some better ones tomorrow. Here are some pics of the 4x8 (not mine) but it shows the inputs etc.

Ped, would you know the Frequency response of these cabs? and the SPL Db thingy

Sorry I don't know but maybe someone on here does. I found the cabs to have a great deal of grunt and a very 'full' sound. A couple of years ago I used them at the SE Bash for my Vbass demo and the sound was spot on, only let down by my ham fisted chops. I spolit my signal into stereo and have one going to the 15 and the other to the 4x8. I could indipendently turn each cab up or down to achieve a good balance and compensate for boomy stages or thin sounding halls.

Cabs have just been picked up and are on their way to a new life. If I could still fit these in my car there would be no way they would be going anywhere. Simply an excellent setup if you can manage them. They are pretty light, too.

Maybe I should have kept them!

Cheers

I love mine and have had it for nearly 9 years now. Let me know if you see/get one. I'll keep my considerably large nose to the ground and let you know if I see any others.
