Mesa Recto Cab's which one ?

[mantis]

Hello all,
What cabinet do you prefer and why, the Vertical 2 x 12 or the Horizontal? I'm very use to a Horizontal cab but the Vertical looks very interesting.
I've played the Vertical at low volumes and thought it sounded pretty damn good. I have not plugged into a horizontal.

Thanks,

Dan

I think the vertical projects a little better, no real difference in tone that I can tell. Ive got an old metal grille vertical 2x12, it looks a little funny because the head is wider than the cab but it sounds great.

What head are you running?

A rectoverb 50

I'm looking into the new TC-50, seems like a pretty killer new head with some added benefits with Midi.
