Interested to know what you call volume 4 (88 persuader Oct 6)as I run my Mini CMD151P combo at just over 1 (8 o'clock) on master and about 11 o'clock on gain. With the Alembic Orion 4 about half volume it is plenty loud enough. Is your volume 4 about 2 o'clock? - if so I would have thought that was pushing the cab a lot. I have used the Traveller 151P extension a few time and it is fine but just not needed. Glynn

I'm saying 4 as if 1 is off and 10 is full on but actually if you think of a clock It would be about 10 o-clock on the master, not quite up to half, and the pre-amp set just below clipping on the loudest played note as they recommend. Bass full up but as long as I'm not clipping the channel that shouldn't matter. With those settings using the LMII running 300WTS at 8 OHMs the cabinet was folding in the music store. That's why I didn't buy it.

Yes - get your point. Actually, that helps me as I was thinking of trading in the rarely used Traveller 151P extension for a Traveller 210 just to see what it was like with the MiniCMD 151P. I think I'll stay put. Maybe the Traveller 210 isn't up to it. I've got my EBS HD350 + 210 + 115 (pictured above) still if the really full on loud gigs come up.

Used my EBS HD350 with the Markbass Traveller 151P cabinet on Sunday with very impressive results. Not particularly better than the Markbass combo but different slightly.

The 2x10 cab I use in combination with the 2x10 combo works great for me in the reggae band. People often comment that bass sound very good, nice and full. Although I would like to try the 1x15 cab with the 2x10 combo..
