I'm interested in getting 210 convertible cab. I've owned a 210 Maz Jr combo and the speakers were level.
I'm wondering what effect having the speakers offset has on the tone/sound when the middle panel is off. Looks like the top speaker has a panel behind it and the bottom speaker is more in the opening.
I'll probably use a Greenback and a Gold into a Z28. Greenback on top and Gold on the bottom?
Thanks,
surfhard

I doubt you would hear much of a difference. Both speakers are in phase and the air pressure would be about the same. Unless you have golden ears. I have an old style 2x10 and a couple 2x10 combos, yes the speakers are side by side, but the internal cubic size is different, that being said I don't hear any difference.

Thanks, Lefty.
Those older 210 cabs look cool.

There is another Dr Z user in my area that I worked with several times, and trust in tonal opinion. He has a Maz 38 2x10 combo and a 2x10 convertible cab. He finds the conv. cab to be bassier than his 2x10 combo when powered with the same Maz 38 and same settings. Just passing his opinion along. YMMV, FWIW...

More cubic air in the conv. cab.

Also the combo will have the open back, and maybe the 2x10 cab is closed or just that narrow strip removed?

I can hear it better when I am closer to it.

Good point, bluzman. That one speaker is slightly higher and easier to hear.
Thanks for all the comments. The 210 convertible looks like a great cab.

It IS a great cab. The response of the Z-10s is nice and tight. ...and with the Z-28 and a Strat or Tele, the 2x10 is a nice companion.
