Having owned this cab for 8months & used it almost every weekend to play rock & pop,it has yet to let me down.600watts is very good handling for a 2x10,there has been reports that the cones tend to give up the ghost but that has'nt been the case with me & am currently using a power amp bridged to 800watts @ 8ohms to power it.Sound wise it has all the bottom end I throw at it with a Warwick streamer 5string fretless,upper mids however are a little lacking giving a'scooped'kind of sound ,but all seems good if you dont want steal the guitarist(s)thunder!It has 4 rubber feet as well(as the plastic corners)-a nice touch to keep it off of a beer covered floor!It is quite big for a 2x10 but light enough.The way I see it is that I can thrash this cab(hasnt died yet)or go easy but if it breaks I'll replace the drivers with some lightweight neo magnet items making it even more portable.With two of these cabs its 1200watts handling WITH portability for around £240! Pros-Good power handling,two substantial carry handles,corner wheels on left side,4 rubber feet on underside,two parallel speakon & 1 1/4"jack sockets,switchable tweeter/jack socket for footswitch,8 plastic corner ends. Cons-Chipboard construction,plastic corners get it when wheeling speaker over uneven surfaces.
