Studio monitor flat, none of that "built in" eq like some cabs have (SWR, Eden, ect) With my amp set flat it might not have the low end as others, but by far the most accurate sounding cab I ever owned/played. I've owned SWR, Trace, Hartke and Bag End crushes them all. I have the 12 inch deep cab. They do make one that is 18 inches that has more low end, but I still have yet to have a complaint (never heard the 18" cab). I a/b this cab with Eden & SWR and it was the cleanist, smoothist one of the bunch (not to say that SWR & Eden don't sound great, they do, I just thought Bag End sounded better). As far as price Bag End is a lot more expensive $900 list (the shop where I bought mine was blowing them out for cost, they're not carrying them anymore) , allmost as much as most upper end 4x10's But worth every penny. It is a heavy little cab (13 ply birch) 67lbs (I think) but not unbearable and I noticed that I set my amp louder than I used to for the same vol. but the cab is ultra clean. I don't think I could distort it if I wanted to!
