They are very good cabs. I had one loaded with Eminence Govenors. It was tight and very full sounding. It holds it's own to a full 4x12 as far as that big bold sound. I moved some serious air with my cab. I also have a Port Cirty OS 2x12. The difference is the Porty City disperses the sound all around and it is not as tight as the CAA. I think you will be happy with a CAA 2x12.
