Phil Jones Piranha C4 Bass Cabinet BK

Bien construido y suena bien (tenía cierto reparo por los conos tan pequeños).

Lo uso en mi estudio para los bajos ya que soy guitarrista y me aporta calidad sin quitarme espacio ni volverme loco por sonidos extraños. También es válido para tocar en sitios pequeños (con un cabezal Markbass en mi caso).

Aunque aguanta 400W, si lo usara para sitios un poco mayores lo apoyaría con otra cabina probablemente con cono más grande (aunque no haga falta) y monitorización aparte según tamaño de la sala.

Ah! Más pesado de lo que "creía" (el peso es el que es)

Es una compra recomendable a un precio razonable.

For this price the cab is hard to beat. Detailed, balanced sound, surprising amount of lows for the 5" speakers. Nice volume for the size.
I highly recommend it.

Sound:
Clean, round, balanced, very fast sound. Nice treble, defined mids and somewhat surprising lows considering the 5" speakers. Not ultra hifi, but not vintage 1x15" sound either (although with some EQ you could get surprisingly close to either).

Use
I use it in a jazz band (drums, bass, guitar, sax). Play it w/ an Aguilar TH500 amp and US Lakland basses. Sounds great in this setting and it keeps up with the drums in volume.
KEEP IN MIND however this is a 4x5" cab. For a rock band with 2 guitars and loud drums to compete with this probably isn't the one.

Comparison w/ other cabs
The Phil Jones easily holds its own against the few other lightweight cabs I tried/owned. Only one sounded better: the Aguilar SL112 (to me THE perfect cab). The PJ still sounds great though, and at a good price.

Pros:
- lightweight & small size
- clear sound & big volume for this size

Cons:
- (none so far)

Solid build, yet not heavy. Looks very cute. Sounds great, strong mids, lower and upper. High end rolls off around 14khz, which for me, is perfect. No nasty 'tweeter hiss'. Can easily get loud enough for smaller or mellower gigs. To get very low bass frequencies, you'll need to dial in and boost low end on your preamp. It can handle the lows fairly well, really well considering the size and weight. I wish I'd had a couple of these years ago. Recommended.

I bought the speaker because of the small size in the beginning, I needed something easy to carry in the metro or bus with my bass and my TC BH550 from a rehearsal room to another. First time I played with it I was surprised about the power and the definition, no matter about the size it deliver all the basses and the mids and the high frequencies a bass player will need. I had many different speakers in many different sizes and power before and this one is in my opinion the one that reproduce better the sound of my bass.
Maybe In the future I will buy another one of I will need more volume playing in larger stages.
I highly recommend Phil Jones products to every bass player!!
