Good, but not great
I've been looking for a 2x10 for a while now, and recently cut my shortlist down to three contenders, which I all tested. The contenders were:
- Markbass Traveler 102P
- Gallien Krueger CX210
- Hartke HD210
The Markbass did not make the cut eventually, even though it has some very nice features:
Design wise, I prefer the Markbass over the three other contenders. The orange components offset really well against the black of the rest of the speaker. It just looks funky and cool.
Also, at 16 kg, it is the lightest of the three, which is an important factor in my 'quest', as I want to be able to carry it in one hand.
Sound wise, I liked the 'middy growl' this amp has at first, but after some playing I found the amp to be overly pronounced in the mids and moderate highs, to the point where I heard a continuous hiss or buzz, and lacking a little bit in full lows. This could have been this specific unit, but this was my experience.
