TRADED: Mike Arnopol MAS Cabs £600 Lestarh

[Oldman]

I traded for these late last year at a trade value of £900.00, apparently they were imported at a cost of some £1,300.00, looking at the MAS website that looks to be correct taking into consideration import duty and taxes. 

I am for various reasons, not the least being health, moving them on. It is highly unlikely that I will be gigging in the immediate future and perhaps not this year. I used them once on a Gig prior to the closedown and they were well received by both the band and a fellow bass player, a nice, full articulate sound he said. They are very light and easily a one handed lift at 11.5 Kgs each, side by side they look impressive, stacked they are a force to be reckoned with, put an intermediate pole in between them (supplied) and you have the bottom end punch with very impressive mid's and  high's.

There are two 6.5" long throw drivers in each cab plus two Faitel Tweeters, each  8 Ohm cab handles about 255 watts according to the info from MAS web site so a highly articulate 550 Watt rig at 4 Ohms. Mike Arnopol himself used the 6'5" drivers for his  upright bass gigs and seems to favour them above larger cone area's. 

He has patented his "Manipulated Vortex Waveguide" system and for me its every bit as good as my previously owned EA NL112 cabs!

Height: 680mm (26") Width: 203mm (8") Depth: 355mm (14")

You can check him out on Facebook and  Talk Bass where he is quite vocal , techy without the BFM edge!

Now for the snaps, I put new strap handles on them , new feet and a lick of that there textured paint, IMO they look great. Shiny bits are sunlight reflection.

Any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

I would consider a small combo as a part chop.

Thanks for looking

I’ll ship these (U.K. mainland) in the price. Trade for a Combo WHY, Fretless 4!

These are surplus and I would like to move them on to a good home.

Thanks for looking
