I run two ISP subs using the Bray boxs, in conjunction with a K100 loaded 212 on top of whichever 412 fills the spot. I rotate between a GB EVH 412, Uberkab (V30/T75).

Ted if it were me, I'd do something like..
- Main amp to the current cab.
- Slave out to one of your Mesa power amps, having it run the new more ass kicking cab.
- Adjust volume to taste.
Having a power amp running the second cab where you can balance volumes is the way, and negates most other blending issues.

Redback…they are very scooped on their own. I use a Redback with a V30 to get lows and highs since the v30 has neither.

Interesting. Have never used a slaved set up, but in the room that makes a lot of sense. Love your main cabs tone but wish it had just a bit more of something. Use the power amp volume to give it just that through a second cab. Good suggestion to the OP in my opinion!

Yeah this, they have less output at 97dB so should blend well in terms of levels and mids.

If you set it up as I described above, it's crushing. Otherwise the 75s get lost.

Great idea........................
Maybe a 2x12 with a Redback and V30 or whatever you like, maybe a redback, EVM12L or a Celestion Creamback H75 being driven by the slaved power amp that has a resonance/depth mod like the old Peavey 50/50's and 120/120's, a used Matrix GT1000FX or whatever you like would also do the job. Use a Suhr Iso line out or Bray box like MetalHeadmike to tap the signal from your Marshall speaker jack and then feed the line out level from the Suhr box to the power amp that drives the 2x12. You could even run an Graphic or Parametric EQ into the power amp to further sculpt what you want to hear low end wise.
Pretty simple setup and it may provide enough low end to your liking and you won't have to buy a powered ISP subwoofer setup.
Hey Metalheadmike, does ISP still make the powered sub setup anymore?

I'd run a slave setup with a second cab

EXCEPT I don't want a whole cabs worth of another speaker just for the thump. I think the isp can work and work well.
