Yeah, the 1820 cabs are waaaaaaaaaaaay huge for what they are. Just buy like...a 4x10 if you're wanting tons of sizzle.

4x10 all the way every day!
I'm more like a mids-ist than a bassist.

I had an 1820 for about a year and while it sounded awesome, it was seriously the fucking heaviest thing ever. But I guess with casters it wouldn't be SO bad

2 8x10's + 2 8x10's converted into 2x18's..... those combined with 2 200+ watt heads.... that's my idea of good toanz.... and my personal goal

4x10 makes all my fuzz and overdrive sound like fucking thunder from Zeus's asshole. I love it.

Re: Bass distortion and speaker size
Alright so any brands that you friends could suggest other than he obvious. Tryna keep it under 400. Would 12s still allow disortiontronz.
Honestly if I had a bigger car and didn't have to lug it around I'd obviously have a stack of 1x18 to 1x8 but that's a lot of speakers and it'd sound perfect but my back hurts thinking about it.
