SolidBass 115T : decent light cabinets for rehearsal

5 years ago

bought two of these cabinets and paired them with Eden Terra Nova 501, this way I've got decent and cheap set for rehearsal and gigs. Weight is perfect, cabs handles are comfortable, cabs can be easily carried by one side handle up/downstairs (I live on the 5th floor without a lift).

Quality is decent, but should pass more time to comment more on this.

Sound.. hmm if you prefer slap techniques, modern sound, or heavey music - this is not your choice. Tone is not bright, prones to warm and deep, and like an old equipment I played when was young, perhaps someone will say a bit muddy and boomy, but anyway it fits good in blues, pop/pop-rock, reggae.

IMHO these cabs very similar to Ashdown Toneman 115 Deep I played once, but more budget and weight friendly (118 EUR vs 198 EUR, 15kg vs 27kg!! ).

I guess that more demanding users can replace loudspeaker to Eminence ones in future, so you'll get cheap donor boxes for this

overall: playing mostly reggae I did not have any high hopes on these boxes and even was gonna buy extra something 3-4 times expensive and branded, but now I think not to spent more money, it is enough for my needs, but recommend to have two cabs, to have much more volume and "fat".

Peace! ☮☮☮
