Ade digs 210 cabs, why don't they make one?

Post by Boy_Narf » Sun Jan 16, 2022 4:38 am

Hello everyone,

I know there was a PPC410 tank and the 210 anniversary, but was there ever a production 210? I've seen multiple videos of Ade discussing his preference for 210 cabs and find it wierd they don't make one.

I have lots of 12" speakers in my life, I'm ready for a UK Orange 210 please :)

There's a guy on ebay called Sonsetbeach I think it is, and he makes Orange-style cabs to your specs. I'm sure he could make you a 2X10. Here's a 2X12 listing: https://www.ebay.com/itm/275006898615?h ... xyqUpQ8vYE

One of my favorite cabs was a 2x10. I now use a 4x10 Marshall. I actually only have two speakers in it hooked up and prefer the sound over all four, so technically its an oversized 2x10! :D

Maybe we will get a new cab with the launch of that top secret OR30R someone spotted :)

I had a 110 Barefaced cab for a few weeks. While I did not care for the cab design, I really dug the response and EQ curve of the 10" with my TT. I'm also still loving my 110 Pro Jr.

I spotted one of the PPC410 cabs on Kijiji a while back but they are something like 80lbs. Had to pass on that monster.

Let's say a UK built 210 diagonal (or a short fat vertical cab) so it will fit with regular size heads, made with the lighter 15mm birch. My wallet is standing by :D

Sort of..it still has 4 speakers in it. But I’ve heard this is a technique used sometimes as the unhooked speakers will still fluctuate as air moves inside the cabinet from the hooked up speakers which somewhat acts like a tuned ported cab. I didn’t necessarily do this for that purpose though. I have a two pairs of different speakers in this cab in a x-pattern and wasn’t digging the sound of the one pair as much as the other so I unhooked them. But the cab sounds great in this configuration so for now I’m content with it as is!

Would they be considered passive radiators?

Sounds like a familiar term. Was a long time ago I read about it. Was building a ported cab and was studying the different techniques. It’s been posted here I built an oversized Port City 2x12 clone, that was a good cab! Should of never got rid of it!

The port city stuff is magical that's for sure.
