GR Bass Unveils the AeroTech Featherweight Bass Cabinet Series

GR Bass AeroTech Carbon Featherweight AT410 Bass CabinetOne of the most shocking pieces of gear we found at the 2020 Winter NAMM Show was the AeroTech bass cabinet series from Italian bass amp company GR Bass. The lineup is described as the lightest bass guitar speaker cabinets in the world, in a new “Featherweight” class. They range from the ATCUBE 112, which weighs in at 16.5 pounds, to the AT410, which is a 4×10 cab that weighs just 33 pounds. GR says they utilized materials and manufacturing techniques from the aerospace industry to create the series.

“Using a carbon fiber wafer made up of high-tech carbon sheets and tunable substrate material in place of plywood, AeroTech speakers are not only very durable but extremely lightweight,” they write. “These patented wafers have been ‘tuned’ to perform like wood, but without its weight. Speaker manufacturers had previously only been able to control the woofer and cabinet design, but GR Bass is now also able to control the cabinet material. The result is an extremely full-range, balanced, and lightweight speaker cabinet. No detail was ignored, even the cabinet corners were redesigned using carbon graphite in place of typical, heavier, metal corners.”

The lineup includes two 1×12 models rated at 450 watts, a 2×8 model at 500 watts, a 2×10 at 600 watts, a 1×15 at 400 watts, two 2×12 models at 700 watts and 900 watts, and a 4×10 rated at 1,200 watts. Each is fitted with a tweeter, and all of the models except the AT410 can operate at both 4 or 8 ohms.

The GR Bass AeroTech bass cabinets are built in Italy and will be shipping in February. They will carry prices ranging from $969 to $1,599.

    I just scored 2 of their (GR Bass) wood 112s and they sound amazing. If these lightweight cabinets sound as good as their previous offering this is going to be game-changing.
