All EarCandy Bass Cabs come with Neutrik Speakon 1/4" combo inputs. So if you choose a Single input your Bass cabinet will be able to use standard 1/4" speaker cable or 2 and 4 pole speakon cable. If you choose In w/parallel out your will be able to use a speakon cable for the input or parallel output and the same goes for the 1/4" cable, it can be used in the input or the output. The center of the Neutrik jack accepts the 1/4" cable. This means as long as your ohm load matches, you can use your EarCandy Bass cab with just about any bass amp in the world.
The Sovereign™ Bass 1x12 is a small cab with a huge attitude. It is 500 watts , very tight, rich in tone through the tone stack and Eq process. It is hard to get a bad bass tone out of this cab. The sovereign is extremely efficient and throws bass anywhere from as little as 5 watts up to 500 watts with a very fast attack.
No booming or bloated low B string sounds, just clear articulate definition without the plastic shallow sound of a tweeter or horn. We do not use tweeters or horns in our Bass cabs. We tune and port our cabs to the proper response. Our bass cabs are tuned wide open so they have the ability to adapt to anything from 5 string active to acoustically amplified stand up and anything in between. Our Bass cabs do not sound clicky or poppy and plastic. EarCandy's Bass Cabs sound thick, warm, full with natural compression and sustain, and encapsulate what the fundamental bass sound should be.
The Sovereign's lows are deep, active 5 string capable, the bass is deep, tight , articulate, warm, full and clear. The Mids are right at your finger tips and are very easy to dial in and out or up and down for a very liquid and fast Eq for great tone. The Top end or highs are full and present, rich and round, not thin or hollow, very strong, defined and punchy with a warm articulate bite.
The Sovereign will not only be a speaker cab in your rig, it will become a instrument, for that's what it is, as important to your rig and playing style and tone as your main guitar. The Sov cab will breed new life and tone out of your amp you did not know existed. The Sov has a large sound spread and is not beamy or directional. They sound very large and full for being a 1x12 and will bring in a new dimension to your tone.
EarCandy uses a proprietary blend of Tone woods in our Bass cabs. One of them is Pine and the other is Birch and some Mahogany.
The speaker and ohm load you pick will determine the ohm load of the cabinet. If using 2 cabs, or a parallel out remember this will DROP your ohm load by 50%. To link to the Ohms article Please click here
Here are a few emails we have gotten about the Sovereign Bass 1x12. We will add more as we get them.
"My Ear Candy Sovereign bass cab has changed the way I play. Not only does it sound significantly better than any previous cabs I've used (including a number of 2x12s and 4x10s) but it's smaller, lighter, and looks better than any of them. I purchased it to have a smaller cab for the studio but now I find that I'm bringing it out on gigs whenever I can get away with it. All I need now is to save up the money to buy a Bass Bomb for bigger shows!"

The Sovereign sounds great - nice and tight with no boominess. Playing through the GK700RBII, I believe I could use that cab alone in even midsize rooms with no problem. I was shaking the walls at master volume and woofer volume set at about 3-1/2 - 4 (out of 10) or at about 10:00 if you prefer. Whipped the tone up on the jazz bass - no brittleness, just crunch (and crunch is good)
It was almost unbelievable when I plugged the Yorkville in alongside the Sov. I could not turn it past 3 (9:00) without shaking everything in the room. I guess that is the rest of the power kicking in on the GK.
sounded just great - I could go from creamy lows to a very percussive sound - all with just the tone knob on the bass. The Yorkville even sounded better - I think it liked the Sov just fine. I think that Sov cab is just as powerful as the Mesa, and with a cleaner sound. And man, do I love carrying that cab around - no sweat at all on these worn out hands.
I will try out the G&L later, but I wanted to tell you that I am well pleased.
