Lightweight and inexpensive bass speaker cabinets.

[Rollin K Rippel]

I'm tired of carrying over 100 pounds of speaker cabinets! So far I have found three lightweight cabs for $300 or less. The Bugera BT210TS, the Fender Rumble 115, and the Trace Elliot Elf 1X10. All of these cabs weigh under 40 pounds. I'm interested in any feedback on this subject. Thank you.

What kind of uses do you need it/them for? Are you talking 1 cab or 2? For overall flexibility, and ability to handle club volume in a loud band, I'd probably go w/the Rumble. 1 Rumble versus 2 Elfs would be an interesting shoot out I'd like to hear!

Thanks for the input. I'm 67 years old and I love to jam with my band mates. I've had two back surgeries. I only play out occasionally. I'm looking for a cabinet with low weight, low cost, and big sound. Thinking that I might play out more often if I had a lighter weight rig. I'd like some feedback from some players who have played through one of the new lightweight cabs.
