Actually, this thing looks pretty shady:

 

we finally came up with our custom 6db per octave crossover that allows this cabinet to play nearly perfectly flat from 20hz to 16khz. That's right, FLAT! No 5db lose at 20hz. We are talking flat and acurate! View the charts below.

That thing is full of 5db bumps, I would be reluctant to trust these guys.

These words, are sledgehammers of truth.

Well, since that thing means nothing, I have to go by the lack of content on their website. Sure they have a cool logo, but that only sold me on Gallien-Krueger :D I'm a sucker for a 6x10 anyway, give me a few smaller cabs and I'm happy.

No no no no no! I do not own such a beast. I'm the jerk that started the "Why the big rig?" thread!

 

It just terrifies me that someone would actually want a 21" subwoofer in a bass rig.

 

I use 2x10" cabs exclusively. :)

Nice! However, think about the maintenance on two 300 LB. roadies! That has to be around $100 in food and beer a day. It could get pricey.

 

It begs the question: would the roadies run errands other than loading and unloading the monstrosity? Would they do laundry? How about cooking and grocery shopping? Is there any chance that you could "sub-contract" them to do other things, like furniture delivery?

 

I'll contact the fellows at Madison Sound and get details. I'll let you know how it turns out.
