Additional Speaker Cabinet

[satch4u3]

Hello fellow Boogians!

I am thinking about adding a second 212 cab along with my current Mesa Rec 212 Horizontal cab. I really like the 212 rec with the v30. V30s seem to be my speaker of choice these days.

What do you guys thing about adding a second 212 rec? Do you guys think that there are any benifits in adding "more of the same"? Or maybe something different like a Port City 212 cab? Or maybe an open back design to compliment the 212 rec close back? I also hear good things about the Stiletto cabs.

What are your guys thoughts?

The two 2x12s I have are a Recto with V30s and a 3/4 back with C90s. I usually only use one or the other but they sound great together, too. Having the semi-open back on top gives a good spread with the recto on the floor to handle the rumblies.

Check out some Diezel cab's. I have two 4X12 front loaded cabs from when I made the jump from my old VH4 and VH4S; and the Mark V responds very well to them. Very articulate and focused. I used to have two recto 4x12's which were nice but I felt they were kinda too boomy and too much bottom end. Then again I was using them with the VH4's and the VH4 is naturally a boomy heavy bottom end head.

The Recto 2X12s are definitely not boomy as they are much smaller in size...

The rectifier 2x12 is my favorite cab. If you dig the tone coming from that cab, adding more of the same can only be a good thing, right?
