Members slicepaperdavid Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 Can these speakers handle high gain, and heavy bottom end well? I know they are used by countless players but I want to be sure a 2x12 cab loaded with these will bring the heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Poltergeist Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 yeah, definitely, but i'd recommend a 4x12 instead. don't think a 2x12 will be enough. you need to push lots of air and lots of volume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gambit Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 just get a 1x15". lows as deep as the Mariana trench. and makes a 4x12" seem completely unnecesaary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members oinkbanana Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 make that two 4X12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hivedestruction Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 A 2x12 with v30's will bring the heavy all day long. No worries. What amp are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rileykill Posted August 19, 2012 Members Share Posted August 19, 2012 yes and yes. the 4x12 sounds AWESOME but if your band cant handle that much volume whats the point? also they weigh 110 lbs. im looking to get the 2x12 orange closed back cabinet so i can take either the 4x12, 2x12 or both depending on the gig.
