Genz Benz GB1288T-UQ Uber Quad Bass Cabinet

The Genz Benz Uber Quad is named after its unique four-speaker design. This compact "multi-driver" cabinet features four separate drivers of varying sizes, which produce an incredible three-dimensional tone.

The Genz Benz GB1288T-UQ Uber Quad is a multi-driver cabinet is excellent for bassists using "extended range" 6- and 7- string instruments. It has a signature tone however, that is ideal for any bassist looking to add a new element of depth, warmth and clarity to their tone. The all important mid range is handled by the dual 8" Neodymium speakers in separate, sealed internal enclosures providing thick, tight, warm mids without "honk" or harshness. These separate chambers are extremely compact which enhances the response and tight suspension of the driver's mechanical performance.

This 600-watt, 8-ohm cabinet sounds great on its own but can be an impressive stack when using two Uber Quads, or when stacked with Genz Benz's new GB115T-UB.

As part of the Uber Bass series the cabinet features the distinctive "nubby" vinyl along with the classic grille and silver piping, Edge-Lift handles, Speakon and 1/4" inputs, 100-Watt Tweeter Level control and crossover design based on a combination of electronic and electro-acoustic principles. This yields a combination of crossover slopes that result in smooth multi- dimensional composite acoustic response.
