    Sweetwater is proud to welcome Boom Bass Cabinets! As a bass player himself, Boom Bass Cabinets founder Drue Williams intimately understands the struggles of bass players who want to produce a big sound onstage without having to haul around a back-breaking rig. Drue parlayed his experience in carpentry to solve this problem. This resulted in the creation of a lightweight line of bass cabinets with innovative design features, including tilt-back front baffles, which direct the sound up instead of at your legs, and down-firing woofers that are installed inside of the cabinet and out of sight. After the video, click the link above to learn more about Boom Bass Cabinets at Sweetwater!

    I wish manufacturers would make more analog solid-state amplifiers and use more 15" & "18" speakers. In my collection, I have three 15's, one 18, and four 10's. I hate modern class D amps and using only 10's and 12's.

    • @tylerwmbass
      @tylerwmbass 3 года назад

      I use one of those class D Mesa heads with an Aguilar SL115 and it is the closest tone I've got to one of those old school high power class AB solid state amplifiers through a 15. The key is making sure the cab and speaker were designed with no tweeter or crossover circuitry.

      @@tylerwmbass
      That's nice. I have two vintage Peavey bass amps. The pure analog circuitry must be felt to understand it entirely. The larger power amp, transformer, capacitors, and other components throw sound out through the speaker. I have used class D amps and to my ears, the preamp and power amp accentuate higher frequencies.
      For my style of using only passive basses with flat wounds and high action, class D amplifiers compress and tighten the sound. It's the nature of the circuitry.
      My point is: the industry should bring back analog solid-state amplifiers as an alternative to the Class D standard.

Great product btw! I was looking at these on your website the other day!

    Here is a sales engineer question for you. I am all about double-duty. I currently play bass AND guitar through the same rig, which is an "amp in a box" type preamp pedal running into a Seymour Duncan Powerstage 170, which then goes into a Gallien-Krueger 1x15 cab. Also, I don't play slap. I play bass with a pick, like the guitarist that I am. I often play the bass with distortion, or a shimmer reverb paired with an octave. And when I play guitar, it is full-on distortion in Drop A tuning. Yes. I am a full-on metal guy. At the same time, I am all about compact rigs, which can fit in the back seat of my car. I love being able to travel with as little as possible. So, with all that in mind, which one of these would be best for my purposes?

    • @sweetwater
      @sweetwater  3 года назад

      Hello! These cabs are really full range, so they would work well. If you're concerned with having a lot of low end, I'd get one of the cabs with a 15 in the bottom. If you're worried about that not sounding mid-rangey enough for the guitar tones, then I'd go with the 2x12.

      Absolutely. Anything that can push a 4 ohm cab (which is pretty much every modern bass amp... but check just to be 100% certain) with 300+ watts should get you moving. 500+ watts will get LOUD. It looks like the 750 watt Aguilar amp in this video is turned up to about 1.5 or so.

    Interesting but like other supposed tilt-back baffle designs useless on a club stage. May be good on a large stage if you want to be 20 feet away from your amp. I never had issues with low end from my 4 X 10 cabs. When I used two I had them on my preamp/ amp rack (about 14" off the ground) and it sounded awesome (so I was told many times by other musicians) to me. And one on a stand or my rack rocked just fine in small situations. Also never liked the sound of SVTs.

    They sound horrible. Too fuzzy for bass. Sounds like they have a busted speaker or coil.

      I got one of the early versions before he got well known, mines was nothing but trouble failed at a gig, tweeters kept blowing out it was just not holding up its a 1215 tank, I actually had to open it up and rewire and replace just to gig before I found the right maker who originally created this style of cabs now my new cabs make me so happy.
