Resonant cabs


Fiery Furnace

I noticed earlier today when trying my new YBA 200 that when I hit a 'D' the note was a lot louder, bassier, and shook the room. Notes a half step away sounded similear. Lower notes (low 'E') didn't do this.

 

I've noticed this with a different amp as well as a different bass. My cabs are both Avatar's (2x10 and 2x12).

 

Do you experience anything like this with your cabs?

I have noticed it with rooms, but not with cabs. All rooms (entire buildings even) are somehow "tuned" to a certain frequency. The high school auditorium is Eb. Hit an Eb and it just booms. Hit an E natural or D natural and it doesn't resonate the same. But, it is the building or the room, not the cabinet.

 

EDIT: they aren't tuned, but for lack of a better word, that is what I used. I should have said that the room vibrates differently to differing notes, and you can usually find that one note that shakes the walls.
