Compact C2 Bass Cabinet BK : icing on the cake

5 years ago

I bought this cabinet to drive my 200 watt amp (dropping the impedance down to 4 ohms) and to point it towards me (like a studio monitor).

A cabinet this small sounds enough for my purposes, but I wouldn't use this cabinet without the support of another cabinet with larger speakers.

It has enough mid and high frequencies, but lacks low frequencies.

The tc e BAM200 amplifier was not able to load this cabinet with low frequencies enough, with a more powerful amplifier (tc e BQ250) the cabinet sounds noticeably better: more low frequencies.

My takeaway: This is a decent studio monitor given its size it sounds incredible.

It's not worth playing only through it alone.

Bonus: if you sit closer to it in hot weather, the cabinet speakers will blow over you no worse than a fan.

It's nice that you can connect it not only with speakOn, but also with a jack (a combined connector is used).

I called my experience "icing on the cake". This cabinet will perfectly complement your large cabinet, adding beautiful mids and highs and adding volume to your system.
