tubbybloke68 Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Hi mike,not quite the same as your situation but it may/may not be of interest to you! I had a super 12t and then brought a big twin gen 3. The bt is defo a’bigger’ softer/fuller sound/tone I suppose whereas the super 12 was more’in ya face’ middy.harsher if you like,less ‘oommphhh.interestinly I still found myself using the super 12 more as it seemed to cut through and I could hear myself better onstage.moved them both on in the end .i now have a bb3and a super midget .A more flexible solution for me I have found.Either one or t’other depending on gig situ and together they sound somewhere in between ,the super 12t and the big twin gen3 fuller sounding that the super 12t .In reality the bb3 more than covers what I need .im talking pub gigs and theatre shows aswell.How’s that for a technical response 😂! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiMarco Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 When trading up to the BT2 what you gain is flexibility. I have the BT2 Gen3 and absolutely love it. HF unit is never ever harsh sounding and the crossover rolls off highs from the woofers as well as rolling off lows from the tweeter for a nice flat response. It is the one cab that can do it all and stay tight at serious soundlevels. When you dial out the HF unit, the woofers get the full range signal again so will sound very reminiscent of your current cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The term ‘trading up’ has really hit home. Much to think about 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
