This is one of the newer 4ohm models, 4 10 inch speakers with no Horn. Very sturdy handles and detatchable but again very sturdy casters finished with a heavy duty kickproof metal grille. On first impressions this is built to last, and after around 5 months use now, it has held up to that first impression delightfully.
Two speakon connectors and Two 1/4 inch jack connectors.

In short; Very well built cab, effective transport features.

Would have perhaps liked to see a variable tweeter, but at this price, i really cant complain.

Sound Quality : 7
Unfortunatly, I find the cab a little harsh at times, even with the lack of tweeter, but with a subtle EQ adjustment on either your bass or head depending, this can be catered for accordingly.
One thing i can say in full confidence though, is if you want punch and definition on a budget, there are very few cabs that will come close. when i bought this amp there was a fine line between this and the ashdown mag series, it was in the end personal taste, as both represented fantastic value for money, however i would deffinatly describe this cab as much more punchy, and the mag much more vintagey/warm.
Im using the cab with a Pro Fet 3.2, and as its 4ohms im using the full 300watts. i use a Cort A4 with rotosound Jazz 77 flats, and i always dial in very little treble and huge mids as i play in a dance/trance rock band.

again, for the price, this isnt by any stretch of the imagination bad, but could be a little less brittle at volume.

Reliability : 9
as said before, im 4 months in and this thing still looks brand new, after a reasonable amount of gigs and weekly practise. although, i will still say that the speakers are breaking in, the brittleness i complained about before is laying off. if this persists, i may contact Warwick to see what they think, as far as my knowladge stretches im aware that Hi-Fi speakers require a six month period to "settle" in, but that could well be a completly different scenario.

Customer Support : No Opinion
Ive not had to deal with warwick as of yet, and hope that i dont need to! i do however know that spares are readily available from thomann.de should i need them

Overall Rating : 7
this cab continues to serve me well, and represents fantastic value for money.
I understand why warwick made a 4ohm model due to people complaining that the pro fet heads are "under powered considering ratings" etc, and unfortunatly, this IS still the case, but at least with 4 ohms im getting as much power as possible in a one cab solution.

would highly reccomend for the first time rig-er!

This is an 4x10 bass cabinet, no horn, 8ohms. Rated 300W's RMS. I bought this new couple of months ago. It's quite cheap for a 4x10 cab. That the cabinet does not have a horn tweeter is only a plus to me since all budget cabinets that had a tweeter sounded horrible to me. Paper cone speakers instead of aluminium ones, a plus too for me. It is surprisingly light for it's size (31kg's)

Sound Quality : 8
I play heavy rock and metal through this with Warwick Profet 3.2 (this was a budget gear, like I said) and Ibanez EDB-500 and Big Muff. I think it does what It's required to do, considering that I play with heavily distorted sound. I think it lacks just a little bit of a low end, but I think the same thing is with all of the basic 4x10 cabs. I also think that a combination with a 15" cab would be just enough for everything when it comes to rehearsing.

The cabinet and amp combination is not noisy at all, even when playing with Big Muff.

Reliability : No Opinion
I've only had this for a couple of months, it seems to be sturdy enough.

Customer Support : No Opinion
No experiences whatsoever.

I think that this is a really good cabinet considering the price. Actually it was the best 4x10 cab (I tested Crate, Hartke, Behringer and couple of other brands) for under 400? new that I tested when I decided to get replacement for my old combo amp. I'm planning to buy Warwick 1x15 next.

Well, before I start my rambling, money WAS an issue. Unfortunately I didnt have cash to throw around, I just wanted something that could be used for band practice/rehearsal, and concerts/gigs. I still had a great array of cabs to choose from however well within my price range. Two in particular, a gallien krueger 410SBX and a Carvin Rl410T (the carvin was being sold second hand). I tried these and were good, but they didnt really pack enough low end for me. So I tried the Warwick 410 pro and luckily enough, it had enough low end to rattle the snare drums on the otherside of the music shop!
It is just a bass cab, so there isnt exactly tonnes of features. 300 watts @ 8 ohms, running 4 10 inch eminence standard speakers, ported, no tweeter, that works greatly to my advantage because Ive never had to use one. They usually work at 8 Khz, and I usually get enough punch from my bass (which is a high frequency bass I may add). It has removable wheels, and plastic feet at the bottom. Also theres sturdy handles that make it a breeze to lift which brings me to my next point: It is rather lite surprisingly (75 lbs/31 kg), so its excellent for transportation.

Sound Quality : 10
I use a modded Samick LB11r precision bass (dont laugh you...) for concerts and gigs with a Behringer BX3000T head (Solid-state 300 watts). But dont get me wrong, I used a Fender Jass Bass USA and ran the cab through a Mesa Boogie 400+ Tube head when testing out this cab before purchase. And the warm tone you would expect from an ampeg was right at my fingertips (well, pick) there and then! It was excellent (I intend on getting that mesa too..) but I get a a nice and warm, yet punchy and crunchy tone from my Behringer and Samick too.
It just provides so much low end for a 4x10, which is quite cool. I'd usually expect that from a 1x15 (I intend on getting a Warwick 1x15 aswell) which is what attracted me to this cab. There is no noise, has NOT distorted, even when my heads been cranked right up (however it does have a limiter) and it suits what me and the band play perfectly (punk rock).

Reliability : 9
Well, this cab is the only one I have so theres no backup!, it could probably be dropped off everest and still be useable. Great and sturdy, perfect for the working punk band playing that abandoned cafe.

Customer Support : No Opinion

Overall Rating : 9
It is excellent, real band for buck. I highly suggest that if you are looking for a new and sturdy bass cab with great tone, but dont have money to throw away, go for this one.
