MS-18MK3 - User Feedback

Same old answer. My Mk1 with Void 1200 was as lush as a reflex (and that is a compliment) As with all large chamber mini driver control had to be managed. Not as bad as some would say, but had to be watched. I did Mk2 and then 3. As with anything in my experience that is horn loaded EXCEPT large chamber you lose the 50hz down. Adding more cabs can negate this, but then we have closed down venues due to peoples children not sleeping.  No idea what goes on in Shortman, but am sure chamber is large so my experience with MS18 MK 1 should be similar?
As a footnote, it's years now since all this was debated but now we have proper mental drivers, so for sure the control issues of large chamber cabs should be a thing of the past??
I always thought Ms18 Mk3 was an afterthought, sure it added control, but deffo lost it's rounded, reflex like capabilities. Became like any other horn to me, tons of 50/60 type stuff but no, "roll down" wooomph.  
Happy New Year

Kinda agree with the above. Alot of non sminis were more 50/60hz and no decent 40hz considering its still a scoop. So for me a pointless cab as i could build 186 horn. I have 1 person i/we know tells me ass rx jnr is a good cab and great sub but as you know i havnt heard it yet from that box and havnt caught my friend playing them yet. But then i suppose lots of high bass is how most play their full scoops also

Yep. No reggae expert, but have tried to listen and the Dubstep world seems to have a lot more true sub. That withstanding makes a nonsense out of all our arguments, perhaps slightly higher bass is where it is?  Nothing wrong with that, it's just like the Asian thing with T18's, horses for courses or whatever that saying is..

Did actually forget about Ultimate mini's, not personally heard them, but heard of them.

IMHO, no cab is worthy to be called Scoop/mini scoop, if 1x cab can't do really solid 40hz, with host of drivers.

You heard them once black swan

To me Dubstep is just noise for the fun of it... Real Roots Reggae/Dub has lyrics/a conscious message. Dubstep may have plenty of 30hz sinewaves, but I prefer "Digital" dub track, with lyrics, and serious bump at 35-45hz, that gives a serious warmth, not monotonous, repeated, machine like droning. Really miss the days of Ragga Jungle, that music had sub, warmth, energy...

Fully agree  but people renting systems out have to cater
