Harley Benton SolidBass 115T

Köpte 2 av dessa lådor då vikten på dem & "15 mm poplar plywood cabinet" föll mig i smaken. Vid mätning av tjocklek på bafflarna visade det sig att "15 mm poplar plywood cabinet" inte förhåller sig särskilt väl till vekligheten. 14,3mm tjock är frontbaffeln på en av lådorna & 15mm på den andra. Resterande sidor & bakstycken har tjockleken 12mm. Lådorna saknar dämpning invändigt så de låter antagligen betydligt bättre om någon form av dämpmaterial tillsätts på insidan av bakstycken & sidor. Det verkar som en av lådorna åkt i golvet eller något innan paketering då den fått sig en smäll & blivit aningen skadad medan paketet var fullständigt intakt. Nåväl, lådorna ser ju fina ut & med hjälp av träbitar, bygglim, vinkeljärn, skruv, bult & mutter går det säkerligen att få dem helt ok. För att förlänga livet på dessa lådor är det nog idé att måla allt öppet ändträ, tänker på de invändiga plywoodförstärkningarna, hål upptagna för högtalarelement, handtag, med mera, då poppelplywood när den suger åt sig av luftfuktigheten blir väldigt spröd, spricker & slår sig. Det enda som grämer mig med dessa lådor är att de troligtvis är tillverkade av underbetald arbetskraft & jag med detta köp bidragit till att hålla sådan verksamhet rullande, annars allt väl.

bought two of these cabinets and paired them with Eden Terra Nova 501, this way I've got decent and cheap set for rehearsal and gigs. Weight is perfect, cabs handles are comfortable, cabs can be easily carried by one side handle up/downstairs (I live on the 5th floor without a lift).
Quality is decent, but should pass more time to comment more on this.
Sound.. hmm if you prefer slap techniques, modern sound, or heavey music - this is not your choice. Tone is not bright, prones to warm and deep, and like an old equipment I played when was young, perhaps someone will say a bit muddy and boomy, but anyway it fits good in blues, pop/pop-rock, reggae.
IMHO these cabs very similar to Ashdown Toneman 115 Deep I played once, but more budget and weight friendly (118 EUR vs 198 EUR, 15kg vs 27kg!! ).
I guess that more demanding users can replace loudspeaker to Eminence ones in future, so you'll get cheap donor boxes for this

overall: playing mostly reggae I did not have any high hopes on these boxes and even was gonna buy extra something 3-4 times expensive and branded, but now I think not to spent more money, it is enough for my needs, but recommend to have two cabs, to have much more volume and "fat".
Peace! ☮☮☮

I bought this cab to pair it with my Aguilar 350 head
Speakon connected
1x15, great sound and great definition

My idea was to get a 1x15 and a 2x10 later in time to use the full 350 from my amp
So far I never felt the need to purchase the 2x10

On little stages, the cab is powerful enough and I don't need to "kill" the amp head, on big stages I usually DI the head so I normally use a stage monitor in front of me and this cab on my back

Never had a problem so far!!
Really lightweight, I can load it on my car very easily

So... this is a 5-star-anywhere to me!

I wanted to buy a 115 cab that was lightweight and reasonably priced , I did consider the Ashdown and TC cabs too , but because the Harley Benton stuff has been clearly punching way above it's weight price wise , I took a chance on this . It is a really nice sounding cab , projects very well , focused and big sounding . The tweeter is switchable and though it is quite subtle I don't use it . it is perfectly finished and nothing about it feels cheap . Nice one !!
