Prince_phil Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Hi Im looking for a 15" cab and have tried out the Markbass and quite liked it but does anyone have any opinions on the Genz Benz? The Markbass is about £450 and has slightly better specs (400w and goes down to 40Hz) the Genz Benz is 300w and goes down to 47hz and can be had for about £250 so they're not quite in the same ball park price wise. Il be using a fender american standard jazz V and a Markbass little mark II head. Ive nowhere to try out the Genz benz so I would have to order it blind- it almost seems too cheap for a decent cab but the seem to get good reviews! Any opinions? I might see if I can combine whichever one I get with my EA wizzy cab to see what that sounds like. Thanks Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pietruszka Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I've only used the mark bass one with a 210 on top of it. I loved it! And they can really handle high volumes and low notes through them. The band I depped for plays everything tuned a semi tone down, and we played a couple of drop 'd' tracks. So actually drop C#, and the mark bass cabs loved it, they sound amazing with really low notes through them. When you hear that the price suddenly becomes a bargain. Don't forget, there is a current trend for 112's and 15's aren't as popular as they used to be (as i see it anyway, I could be wrong).

Lozz196 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Both my liking for Markbass gear, and my OCD says get the Markbass cab to match your amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
