What to pair with a LM II?

I've recently picked up a Little Mark II which i'm very happy with so far, just wondering if anyone had any recommendations for a cab to partner it with? I play in a punk band with a precision bass generally in venues with a 100-300 capacity.

Depending on your preference, either a couple of Markbass 210s or 112s. That said, a Markbass 104HR sounds great with those amps - and not too heavy a lift either, in fact a good one-cab solution. I was using a Precision/Markbass Little Mark Tube which is essentially a Little Mark with a bit of warmth into the 104HR doing punk, great set-up all round.

I'd get a 410 or 2 210's. You'll get a lot more punch and attack out of the 10's.

That really depends on the drivers in question. If they're from the 80s, then definitely.

The Schroeder 1212, 1210 and 1515s are a good match with the LM heads. I had a LMIII and a 1515, and a friend gigged a LMIII and a 1212, both are great for rock/punk tones, tho I found I needed a Sansamp pedal to put some SVT-like aggression into the amp. The cabs are just the job, though.

I used a EBS Proline 212 (4ohm) and a EBS Neo 410 (4ohm) with my old markbass, It worked well, lots of power as I was pulling the full amount out of the head. EBS make superb cabs and they can be picked up very cheap, I still have the Neo 410 but the MarkBass disappeared a while ago.
