Defo Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I've run my Aguilar SL112 as an extension off my Trace Elliot 715X and it sounds fantastic. Has anyone else tried a 15 with a 12? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Barefaced Compact & Midget - very popular on here. I had this set-up, and sounded great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 It wouldn't be my choice on te face of it but it depends how they are voiced as to whether they compliment each other or step over each others toes... but if you like the sound, then ok...

[/quote]+1. Virtually any two cabs together will sound better than either alone, that's just the nature of how speakers work. Whether or not any particular combination of mixed cabs will work better than a matched pair is a different story, being totally unpredictable, and unless you have actually tried the various permutations side by side you'll never know how cabs A+B compare to a pair of cab A or pair of cab B.

Mr. Foxen Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Running off different amps eqed differently is another story though. Barefaced Compact run clean bassy with a dirty 1x12 guitar combo is mini fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4 Strings Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 BF Compact + Midget T here, although the opportunities to use them together in anger can be counted on one hand. When I have its been blistering, very sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomBass Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 A few years back I had a 15" Ashdown EB180 combo, and supplemented it with the 12" version of the same Ashdown combo (except the amp was missing, so it was acting as a 12" extension), and they worked really well together. To be honest, if I hadn't found this site I'd probably still be happily gigging with them. Later on in life I added a BF Midget to my Compact, and really did not get on with the pairing at all. The Midget gave me too much mid harshness (might not be the right word to use) that doesn't work for me. Changed it to a 2nd Compact and all was well with the world. Note that I have now gone back to a single Compact, as that seems to be all I will be needing in the near future... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0175westwood29 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Tried this the otherday, sounded nice! Alot of deep lows coming from the 15 and some nice throaty attack from the 12. Sadly means i may have to add a hartke 15 to my set up one ive got another 112 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defo Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 Have now swapped the heads round and running the Trace 15" and the SL112 off the TH500, suits the Spector more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
