Big Ben brings it

This speaker is the foundation of my stack since '03. There is no way to fake the low end out of a lesser speaker. It makes the ground shake and stomachs grumble when I crank the low end and hit the low B. And it adds warmth and bottom end to all higher notes as well. I love the sound and still get comments on it at most shows. Thanks SWR.

P.S. chrome = good. always.

I am running the SWR 700watt Head into one 4x10 and one Big Ben 18" cabinet. This totally ROCKS! The tone is AWESOME! I have an OCEAN TB-75 5 string bass and this combo is the BOMB!!!!! Hats off to SWR for making an excellent product.

Have owned the BIG BEN for a couple of months now.This cab. is great with a goliath jr. 2x10 as one would probably expect, but I am very impressed by the way it sounds by it self too! Very fast and punchy but with roundness!This cab. even sounds good with slap style.Cab. is pretty easy to move too.BIG BEN is a nice BASS speaker cabinet.

I have two of the old SWR G-III Cabinets and I have tried a lot of sub cabinets with them over the years, and I have as of yet to hear the fat bottom end that these have. My sound is High, Mid, and Low all at the same time. It is everything I ever wanted in a rig. I cannot be overpowered. Clean fat Big Ben Bass. The 4 10 Sound was great for small settings but the Ben's add the bottom touch I was looking for.
