    There is a fair bit of reasoning as to why a vertical 2x12 is better than a 4x12. As a bassist I would prefer to be on stage with a guitarist using a 2x12. Quad boxes beam horribly, 5 meters in front of them they will be the only thing you hear, slightly off to the side and you don't hear the guitar. Single or vertical speakers have much better dispersion in both the crowd and on stage.

    For some things, some times, it's the same time all over the world, and I think we know what time that is...

    Just wait until you try to pop a Superlead ( 200W ) head on top of the stack, they look great but oh my it's hard work.

    Can I suggest two boxes? Take one for small rehearsals, two for bigger gigs etc.

    No self respecting bassist will just straight DI, Pest. You still got some learnings to do.

    Kurt, let me know if you want some custom logos for your grills.

    We'll make a bass player out of you, eventually.
