doctorbass Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Is anyone using one of these? I'd like to try one with my GK 700RB-II. Any user experiences would be welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPJ Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I'm not using the Ashdown one, but I am using a 6x10 (SWR) and its been a revelation. My amp really prefers a 4 ohm load, and I was sick of carting 2 4x10's into pub gigs so opted for the 6x10. Its a very scaleable solution, loud enough for bigger venues and portable enough for smaller gigs. I've no experience with the GK head either, so really I don't know why I'm commenting here :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fasting showman Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Hello, Again, dunno if my comment is valid but I use an Ashdown mag 810(don't mags have the same Sica speakers as ABMs?) with either my old GK800rb or 400rb and they sound great to my ears. I'm told that Ashdown cabs sound dark, maybe they work well in combo with the bright punch of the GK heads? Fair to add that I'm not into lots of low end. Hope this helps!

grenadilla Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I use the ABM 610 with a MAG 600 amp and it gets the tight well-dampened bass response of a SVT cabinet. Try it and you will like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BruceBass3901 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 My ABM 610 is the best cab I have ever played through. Sounds awesome with my ABM 900 and CTM 300. Still a pain to move around, but not as bad as an 810. Really tight sounding cab which really seems to bring the best out in my heads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorbass Posted March 26, 2014 Author Share Posted March 26, 2014 Some good feedback guys, thanks. Does anyone know where these are in stock ( in the SE) to try one out? Any thoughts / experience on how this cab compares to other 610's - SWR, Ampeg etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceBass3901 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I think there are a couple of shops in Brighton that can stock these or certainly order one in. I have tried the Ampeg 610 and found it was very dark sounding compared to the ABM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
