Bergantino Audio Systems NV-215 Cabinet

This was the last one available for sale new. Made in 2005. It is a sealed box and very clean and tight for a 2x15. It has a top handle so it can be tilted back andf rolled. It also has two side mounted handles for easier lifting. The handles seem very sturdy. It has a perforated metal grill that looks to be black powder coated but I am not sure. Only one input jack so no daisy chaining. 600w/rms@4 ohms. Very light for a 2x15 under 100 pounds (97) if i remember correctly.

I have used this with my 2004 Fender American jazz Bass.Peavey Cirrus 5 string. Peavey T-40. G&L SB-2 (original version 2 J type MDF pickups)Fender 1997 MIM p Bass.
This Cab sounds old school with a difference clean and tight not wolly and dull. Clean clear sound Very tightbut with good high frequency definition due to the 6" mid driver. It is a sealed cab allowing Tube amps to drive it without the deep low clarity loss. With tubes it is deep,punchy,And very articulate. It does the old school tube amp deep,thick,punchy,warm tooby goodness sound without being too HiFi or sterile. This cab does not lack soul. Have driven it with both my Sunn 300T and my Mesa 400+ and they both sound fantastic. I have also driven it with my Mesa M-2000, Peavey FireBass 700-II and Old 60"s Kustom k200-1b Heads and they all sound better than with any of my other cabs. I play mostly Classic Rock/Funk And Blues. I havbe not been able to get the cab to distort But have bren able to get both tube amps to overdrive.

I have only had this cab for a little over a month so don't know about reliability of this exact cab but Bergantino has a very good reputation in all facets of customer service. But I would have no problem using this cab without backup.

Never used their customer service but have heard they are very customer oriented. I e-mailed asking about a cover for mine and was e-mailed back within 10 minutes. So I wouyld say their customer service is very good.

I have only been playing a little over a year. I have (Heads) Mesa M-2000/ Mesa 400+ / Sunn 300T / Peavey Firebass 700II / Kustom K200-1B(cabs) Mesa Diesel 2x15 / 2 Kustom b-2x15's (cts speakers)/ Peavey TVX412 / Peavey TX-810 / Sunn 215B (with JBL's) / Kustom 1x18B (floded horn). If the bergantino was lost or stolen I would have to hunt down whoever did it and beat them to get it back these are no longer made so it could not be replaced. I have compared it to my all my other cabs and it wins in every way hands down. The only thing I wish it had is two jacks for daisy chaining. overall a great cab for Most styles.
