Members REMUS Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 I hear allot of praise for their amps, but how about the cabs and combos? They demand a fair premium and are well into Aguilar+ price territory... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mytola Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 I love their cabs and combos as well. Light and punchy. Sounds like something at least twice the size and weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members joelFG Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 the one i tried for a few hours had a neat little panel on the top for reaching the back of the amp. sounded nice too. one in the shop had a blown speaker that sounded awful, but the other one i looked at was great! Sounds like something at least twice the size and weight. +1 i like the orange too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitargod0dmw Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 Personally, I'm not a fan. They just don;t sound right to my ears...maybe they're a little too hi-fi, but I've played some hi-fi cabs before...and they sounded a lot better. They just seem to lack the low end that I want. They're ugly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members t3ch Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 They sounded the same as my GK. And an ampeg. and an SWR. Oh and aguilar too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members T. Alan Smith Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 I was disappointed when I heard them. Then I plugged the LMII into a new Peavey Tour Series stack(1x15 & 2x10)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Emprov Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 I don't really care for them. I tried long and hard to get a nice one stop shopping tone and I really couldn't find it through any of their cabs. I came the closest through 2-410's but I heard a loud pop and lots of buzzing before I could dial it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members REMUS Posted November 14, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 hmmm =/ I think i'm still going to go with a MarkBass CMD102P, since i'm getting quite sick and tired of trying to get a rig together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Captain Fathead Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 I demo'd an LMII at GC, first through a couple MB cabs, then through an aggie GS112, then through an ampeg 410. The MB cabs were by far my least favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members REMUS Posted November 14, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 I could always keep the GS112 I already have as an extension cab to help with the low end response. Can't imagine they are *that* bad??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO they're not *that* bad, they're just not *that* good. YMMV though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rummy Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 Wait. If you already have a cab, why are you looking at combos? Just get the Little Mark II to match that GS112? ANd another GS112 perhaps later on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members REMUS Posted November 14, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 because getting a lmII is difficult, it would almost be cheaper for me to buy that combo second hand and take the amp out... i'm just getting really frustrated trying to choose an amp... turns out I can't even find a descent combo lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your time will be rewarded! I agree with Rummy though...if you've already got that Aggie cab...find a decent head and stick with it! Then you can add another cab down the road. I'll let you know what my GK 2001 sounds like through (2) GS112's in a few days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just get a 1001 in a rack bag to run with that cab and be done with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members REMUS Posted November 14, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 / a gk clip through GS112s would cheer me up! They don't sell GK new over there? Just get a 1001 in a rack bag to run with that cab and be done with it. Right you are captin, i'm going to ring a dude that has one for sale right now!

Members Poltergeist Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 if i bought one it'd be the 2x10 combo, but the best choice would be to get a MB head and a good separate cab... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members justinbass Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 I had the 121P combo for awhile. LOUD and clean as hell. I prefer are warmer, more colored cabinet, so I sold the combo. I'll never find a combo that was so amazingly light and loud again. I have nothing but praise for it.

Members REMUS Posted November 14, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 Since you are de_railing my thread anyway... There is a dude in the UK who is selling a GK 212, same person who is selling the 1001rb i'm buying. How much are you willing to pay? Shipping shouldn't be orrible, but it will be pricey.
