Legion Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 (edited) There's no Rabbit to be seen here - but there is some Chocolate! Gigged this rig Friday night and it sounded marvelous. I'm done with gear swapping (for 10 minutes at least). [attachment=23350:Chocolate2.jpg] Edited April 5, 2009 by Legion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really happy with the GS cabs I bought from you, they were gigged again last night and are perfect with my MB SA450 which I decided to buy after our LMK conversation. The rig fills big rooms with bass without even going past 9 o'clock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higgie Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 That is my dream rig! I'm halfway there already, got a chocolate thunder DB112 and an AG500SC - Just need the NT cab now!!

tischbein Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 I visited the Frankfurt Musik Messe yesterday. Besides being horribly crowded and full of chinese with sh*tty copied products, there was the new top and white cabs... absolutely cool look. Pull up a white leather couch and start jammimg...

An easy 1 handed lift but 42lbs makes them fairly hefty if you need to move them very far. Having the rig split into 2 cabs makes that very tolerable though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that there are times when one handle actually works really well (short haul one cab in each hand) but there are just about as many situations where I do multiple trips, up stairs etc and I carry one cab grasped at the bottom/sides... hardly a chore, just saying! I have to confess I 'probably' like the chocolate or vintage tweed more than the black and silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlthebassist Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Ooooh lovely! This is making me very very excited - my GS112 cab should arrive at the Bass Merchant this week, then I'll get it next week! Been waiting for what feels like forever. Has been a couple of weeks. Was so tempted by a White Hot DB112... Nice to hear that a few people on here are using Aguilar 1x12 cabs with Markbass heads and liking the results...

I've been in contact with the Bass Merchant about a DB112NT in Chocolate Thunder, and the only one they had left in stock was sold just before I was ready to buy it. They told me they'd have a new shipment in 3 weeks, about 6 weeks ago. I'd keep your fingers crossed if I were you - I know that'll hinder your playing for a bit but it will be worth it when the cab turns up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayFW Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Another very happy recent Aguilar convert here. I now have 2x DB112 in White Hot with an Epifani PS600 Head.

Cheers, G[/quote] G, when I tested the cabs out I A/B'd between a GS112NT & a DB112NT. Already having 2 GS112's I sort of knew what to expect when I added the 2nd cab to that configuration. The extra cab makes a sizeable difference to my ears as it just helps you move that much more air which gives the sound more presence and enables it to carry further. I know a lot of people are quite anti-tweeter but it certainly adds a lot to the sound and having the option of turning it down if you don't like it (or if its distorting under extreme circumstances) makes it worth having for me. How did you get on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
