Really helpful video thanks. I'm a 5-string player, and I can hear how the 12" definitely provides more substance to the low E string. But the 210s together with the 112" sounds overall best to my ears.
@ToddUrban
@ToddUrban 2 года назад
Interesting point. Yes, technically the 12” should produce a lower frequency. But in real life, 2 10” might produce a tighter low B, which may feel like a better reproduction of the frequency. It is just personal taste! I should have included a 15” too!

I love the Traveller 102p. Been using it for about 6 years now paired with the LM3 head. Imho the 4ohm version is loud enough for any plausible situation. Any louder and you'll be going through FOH system anyway. Light enough to carry around with one arm and make one trip from car to venue ect. I've also even grown to appreciate the harsh tweeter in live situations.

Excellent video. I have both markbass 102 and 121 cabs and actually played a gig w them on Sunday together for the first time. There is a midrange on the 121 that gets kind of honky. The 102 has this pre scooped sound so you find yourself bringing more mids into the mix. When i used both i didn’t have to do much on the end of eq adjustments on my head. This video captures the nuances of each and just how great they sound when combined.
@ToddUrban
@ToddUrban 3 года назад
I totally agree. I used to use the 410 cab for a more modern sound. But recently, I prefer the combination of the 12 and 10s. It’s like they fill in for what the other lacks. And if I can only go with one of them, it’s completely style dependent. Upright and Motown are 12s. Slap, Funk, and Contemporary are definitely 10s.

I got rid of my Hartke rig, a 4.5x10 + 2x15 cabs with a 500watt head. I replaced it with the CMD 212H combo which has a horn instead of a piezo. Also, the controls are on the front instead of the back. One hand carry @ 40lbs. And then I joined another two guitar rock band with half stacks. To it's credit the combo didn't distort, it just wasn't loud enough. So I put a NY 151 underneath. Problem solved! I do miss the sound of 10" speakers. I don't miss having to dolly my rig around.

@@ToddUrban Your welcome- great video! If I had to take only one, I think it would be the 2x10. I was at GC the other day and tried the Fender Rumble 25. It uses an 8" speaker. Then I tried the 40 which uses a 10" and it was noticeably fuller. The 12" is nice but not quite as punchy. The 10"s are also lighter. Believe it or not, I have had great luck with all three of my current guitar amplifiers (I mostly play guitar- just trying out some Bass.) I have a Yam. THR10. It uses 2 x 3" speakers and optional battery power. At low volume it sounds incredible. It even has a Bass setting. I put in the trunk of our SUV's and did a quick demo to my friends in the diner parking lot this week and they were blown away. Very full and rich (for 3" speakers at least.) I also like how it performs through my Fishman Mini Loudbox acoustic amp. It uses a single 6.5" speaker. I would honestly give my Yamaha THR a slight edge. It does however sound the relative best with my Boss Katana Artist 100w guitar amp. It uses a 8 ohm, 12" very high quality Boss Waza Craft full-range speaker (speaker alone costs $225.99). I keep the volume low (under 80dB's) as not to fully aggravate my tinnitus (protect your ears!) I put the back of my amp up against a wall with a pillow stuffed in the open space to really seal up the back. Again, at relatively low volumes, it is deep and rich sounding. The amp can safely go much louder but for practicing at home, it does the job very well. I also have an FM9 Turbo still new in the box. I'm sure that will sound great as well either via headphones or the effects loop on the Katana. The Katana has speaker outs so I could go directly out to the 2x10" Mark Bass. It would probably sound better. To get the best of both worlds, I could probably figure out a way to wire up all three speakers. This way I could use the 2x10" Mark Bass and the onboard 12." Thanks again for the video- very well done, accurate and unbiased the way they should be.

@@ToddUrban Thanks. I just watched. Seems like you lean towards the Celestion. I have a 12" in my Katana Artist guitar amp. Do you think a Celestion 10" would be good? Not sure if you know but how can I connect it? My Katana has 3 speaker outputs with various ohms. My built in speaker plugs into the female 8 ohm jack. If the other speaker, Celestion is 8 ohms, if I connect in parallel, I suppose by using a Y connector cable, that would get me to 16 ohms- so I could plug the Male Y into the 16 om jack. Does this sound about right to you- or anyone? Thanks!

No…. The opposite. You would have a reduction in impedance/resistance, so a lower ohm value. I don’t necessarily prefer the Celestion. It is just more detailed and open.

Interesting video. I laughed at the reference at 1:24 to a "'70s style J-Bass" as the bass shown has a P-Bass pickup up front and will sound like a P-Bass. A few years back, I had a CMD121P combo (basically a LittleMark III and a NY121 combined) and when stacked on a NY121 extension cabinet, became a monster mini stack! Foolishly sold them, but still have a LM III head on a pair of Hartke HX112s.

I agree. Fender calls it a J due to the body style and the bridge pickup. It was part of the J line in the 70s. However, you are right. It is a bit more of a P sound, but with the nasal bridge cutting quality that you would expect from a J. It is a cool blend of both if you don’t want to keep 2 instruments maintained.

No picking on you but everyone of these test sound the same... the 12’s sounds like a 12 inch speaker the 10’ssound like 10inch speakers

Agreed. I think the difference I’m trying to show here are the possibilities when combining the two.

@@ToddUrban I was just razzing you because there are so many similar videos out there, you’re right...combining cabs is the best result. The 12’s have a low-mid boost unique to themselves, my fav’ lately is 2x10” / 1x15” combo. ✌🏽

@@buddylove9484 12 inch speaker tend to sound muddy in the low mid, and that is so for ALL 12 inch speakers, no difference when they are used for guitar,bass, full range or whatever. That is the reason why I hate them.Th sound is unreal. With 2 x 10 you have nearly 1000 sq centimeter of cone surface which influences air displacement ( bass 9. With 1 x 12 you have around 700 sq cm.The bass sound with 10 inch speakers is cleaner, not less bass, less humpy. Try a vibrolux reverb for guitar and compare with a Deluxe reverb, not for the power, but for the sound quality in the bass region.

@@joseceraia I am a 61yr old working musiaian.... worked sales at a music store in S.E. Michigan for 17yrs...I'm very familiar with the inherent tone of speakers, Fender, Alnico, Celestian, Peavey, JBL, EV, Altec ,...and so on,... my point being is that the 12" speakers are fine and I wouldn't call them 'muddy'...they just naturally produce mid-bass more efficiently, which can do wonders in a 3-way sound system speaker for the vocal range. ...and the 2x10 vs 1x12 isn't fair...2x10" vs 2x12" would be fair! I love 10's but I personally like 1x15 w/tweeter over multiple 10's. these are just my thoughts on the topic and btw I always LOVED 2x10 guitar amp combos.

@@buddylove9484 Well Sir I am 75 yo and was sound engineer, above that a huge JBL fan, grown up with the blond Fender amps and in the PA system I always used the 2123 JBL 10 inch from 120 Hz till the 2450 take over. It was my job for over 50 years, and 12 inch in the low mids are not pleasant to hear .10 inch cleans up the low mids and cleaner bass, because a 12 inch conflicts more with bass compared to 10 inch But everybody his taste even when it is bad taste.
