You don't reaaaally want one. *does the jedi mind trick hand wave*

They are much to heavy and cumbersome for you. *does the jedi mind trick hand wave again*

Not into the 18's I like the tight punch of the 8x10. In fact I went to Guitar Center last night and tried a gang of combinations. It kept coming back to the 8x10. Ive got plenty of power. Ampeg SVT4 Pro. 1600 watts at 4 ohms. Oh ya baby... BAM!

EDIT: Of course, if I had my way Id want an 8x10 cab that could run stereo so I could utilize the crossover in the head. But I dont feel like paying 2k for a cab quite yet

Dude, you can TOTALLY run the Ampeg 8x10 in stereo. The newer ones, I mean. I got mine for around 9 hundy. I saw one the other day somewheres for $750. Look on the Talkbass forums.

Shit, some fucker @ GC told me I couldnt run the cab in stereo. I know it has the 2 jacks in the back but I thought those were for [1-in/1out].

EDIT: Hey Hodge, can ya get the info on that cab for me if you have the chance. The site is blocked here from work.

They have a couple on there but one is so beat up that I just dont trust it. And the other is an AV model. I did find a brand spankin new one for 830. Think Im gonna go with that. Thanx for the heads up though!

My thoughts exactly. I went down to GC and they have it set up where you can set up several combinations of heads and cabs. I used my SVT4 in every cab and kept going back to the 8x10. SO....Im on my way to go pick it up! :)
