Mesa Adds 2×10 Cabinet and DI/Preamp Pedal to Subway Series
In addition to introducing the Subway D-800+ bass amp, Mesa/Boogie has added to the Subway series with a 2×10 Ultra-Lite Cabinet and a Bass DI-Preamp. Both new products are made in Petaluma, California.
The Subway Ultra-Lite 2×10 joins the existing 1×12 and 1×15 cabs in the series. It features a pair of 10-inch custom neodymium speakers matched with a high-frequency horn with an attenuator.
The cab is built from lightweight Italian poplar featuring Mesa’s Tuned Front Ported Tri-Port Porting design and aviation style bracing. Mesa rounds it out with recessed handles, black bronco vinyl, and a black metal grille.
