Darkglass Electronics Announce New Range Of Lightweight Bass Cabinets

January 7, 2020

Darkglass Electronics is pleased to announce the launch of a new range of lightweight bass cabinets today ahead of next week’s NAMM Show.

The DN Series will be shipping within February 2020 to the UK from Audio Distribution Group and will on display at NAMM on the Darkglass Booth (D3736).

Historically, it has always been a battle when it comes to bass cabinets. On one hand, the modern musician wants them as lightweight as possible and on the other, they want the very best tone. Well that era of compromise is now over.

With the new range of DN Cabinets from Darkglass Electronics, flexibility, amazing tone, power-handling and portability give the best of both worlds – all in one product! The result also is the perfect match for Darkglass’ award-winning amplifier line.

Darkglass teamed up with driver experts Eminence® to make custom Neodymium drivers for this new series, providing the same massive and present tone, performance and reliability the brand is known for.

In addition, the cabinets are manufactured with Paulownia, a sustainable hardwood. This has the benefits of being lightweight, yet also is extremely strong. Plus, it has resonant qualities not found in simple basswood, as in many other competing cabs. It is a perfect wood for a super low-weight cabinet solution, while the Baltic Birch Front Baffle adds rigidity to your tone where it counts. Furthermore, cabinets are finished in a custom hard-wearing “carbon-fibre-style tolex” covering, to not only carry on the distinctive Darkglass look, but take the rigours of the road for years to come.

But that’s not all! In addition to the previous series of 2×10 and 4×10 configurations, the range embodies two new models 2×12 and 1×12. Plus, cabinets can be mixed and matched for additional sonic possibilities and enhanced portability.
