Anyone have any experience with Bergantino bass cabinets? I'm looking for a 2 X 10" cabinet to go with my Markbass head and I've heard a lot of good things about Bergantino.

I'd check in at Talkbass' amp forum as there is always lots of discussion about Bergantino/Epifani/Shroeder/Markbass...

Thanks for the tip Jeff! Seems like these cabs get rave reviews over there. I'm going to try one out this afternoon.

Well I ended up picking up the Bergantino HS210 cabinet from Club Bass in Toronto. They're Markbass dealers as well, but Dave the owner told me that when players A/B Markass and Bergantino cabinets, they usually end up going with the Bergantino. After just a few minutes with the Bergantino cabinet, I was sold - they're really a nice match with Markbass heads! I won't try to describe the sound I'm now getting, but all I can say is that it's miles ahead of the Nemesis 2X10 combo I was using at one time. I'd definitely recommend Bergantino cabs - quality construction and sound!

Hey Jeff - I was just checking out your latest Markbass aquisition in the Bass section. Very nice! I may look into that model for the musicals I do

This amp would be perfect for theatre work. I ran the XLR line out (post EQ) to the band's Korg HD recorder and it sounded great, so running through a PA should be excellent.
