Overview

Eminence Legend BP102 Bass Speaker (200 Watts, 10 in.)
Back by popular demand! The Legend BP102 has been a staple product for many bass guitar wonders over the past 10 years. Eminence has had so many requests for this speaker, Eminence couldn't refuse to put it in their catalog. This is a favorite for 3X, 4X, and 8X10 cabinets! Don't let the sensitivity fool you, this speaker will really punch out the bass with authority. It also works great as a mid in PA applications or in a three-way bass cabinet.

Take an in-depth tour of the Eminence speaker factory:

Eminence Guitar Legends are specially designed for electric guitar amplifiers. Tuned by skilled ears, these hand-built specials feature a range of materials and ideas from nearly 40 years experience. Models such as the Legend B15, 121 and Modeling 12 are state of the art designs which meet the modern-day demand for power handling while other models feature vintage magnet and cone materials to recreate the traditional sounds of lead and jazz guitar.

The most difficult aspect of presenting a guitar speaker to the world is being able to describe its tonal characteristics. Your choice of guitar speakers is at least as important as your choice of pickups or strings. Just as you customize a guitar to suit your sound, so too can you customize - or 'hot rod' - your combo with Eminence loudspeakers.

Important Note

Watts: The guaranteed long term power rating throughout the usable frequency range of the speaker.

(Translation: the speaker will operate continuously at any frequency within the speakers specified frequency range when driven at this power. The "Watts" rating is similar to RMS, but is really more indicative of long term thermal capability.)

Music Program: The speaker will safely and reliably handle the varying frequencies of musical content at this power rating. The "Music Program" rating is more indicative of what you can expect in the real world with the speaker operating within the appropriate enclosure reproducing music or vocal audio program.

Without a doubt the finest 10 inch bass speaker out there. I've never been a 10 inch bass speaker fan. I've used 15 inch cabs most of my performing life. Seismic Audio had a sale in their 2x10 cabs over last fall and it was so cheap I couldn't not buy one. It arrived, I plugged it up and meh... Like all my other 10" bass cab tries, lots of mids, little to no bottom. I didn't like it. So it's sat in my equipment room since October. Last week I was reading the specs on the BP102. It showed incredible low frequency response and my Seismic cab was the right cu. ft. size, and ported for the right frequency so I bought two. I just put both speakers in and OMG. It's like a whole different cab. It still has the growly mids from before, but now it has all the bottom end I could ever want. Like wall shaking bottom. I have Eminence speakers in all my cabs now. They're priced right and all sound amazing. Highly recommended.
