I should add that it's 26"H, 20"W, 16.75"D and weighs around 46lbs. Hi-fi goodness...can take at least 750 watts at 8 ohms and sounds massive  |

Here's a review from an amazing upright player named Geoff Firebaugh on his experience with the F115
FEARLESS!!! So, Mark Robertson has been kind enough to let me take the new F112, and now the new F115 cabs out to gigs, and put them through their paces. I knew I was going to like these cabs. Dave Greenboy Green is a freakin' mad scientist, and Mark does a fantastic job of bringing these bad boys to life. Not long after the first couple of BNA cabinets hit the road with Mark and I, we began a long back and forth with Dave, about what was, and wasn't working for us as Upright Players, and especially as upright players in loud bands. Shortly thereafter, Dave had reworked his crossover design with an 'upright' voicing, and started really working on these new designs (Fearless F215, F115, and F112). I can say unequivocally, that these are the BEST bass cabinets out there today. Dave has really taken the designs a step past what he was doing with the fEARfuls, and made something new and different.
I've used the F112 a few times now. I used the first 12/6 cube that Mark built, on a couple gigs, and really liked it, but found it hard to hear, when set on the floor. (I'm 6'4) So I began talking with Mark and Dave, about building a 12 based cab, that could be kicked back as a wedge, like my old ampeg 210BXT did. After some finagling and a bit of time, Dave came out with the F112 design, A small, lightweight cabinet that can be used in 3 different positions. Flat, vertical (amp sits one end). Flat Horizontal, (This is best when the cab is part of a stack, or on a table, drum riser etc) and last but not least, as a wedge. I can't overstate the importance of this setup. kicked back in the wedge configuration (TC head, and Solstice velcroed to the cab) I was able to play a low volume tourist bar gig, Have great tone, and hear myself clearly, without blowing the customers away. The lows are tight at responsive, though not huge, like the 215 or my 1515/66/1. The mids and highs are positively sparkling thanks to the 5" mid driver and horn. The whole cabinet is really small, and light (under 40lbs), in fact, I walked the 1/4 mile from the lot to the gig, carrying my bass, backback with gear and amp, and the cabinet, with no problem. In my opinion, the F112, is the most accurate way to amplify the sound of your doublebass.
The F115 is Loaded with a 15", 5" mid and horn. It does everything, that the F112 does, but it does it bigger and louder. Lowend for days, mids and highs, that put most PA cabs to shame, Amazing clarity, and again, the ability to use the cab as wedge. This might be the ultimate bass cabinet. It's a bit more heavy handed sounding than the F112, due, I think to the increased size of the woofer, yet it retains the crystal clear mids and highs of its smaller sibling. It was more than enough for me on 2 different gigs, last night, replacing my Acme 410 with ease. I found that switching the voicing switch, in and out, did change the character of the cabinet, but essentially works like a mid presence control. I found myself using the upright voicing (button in) for slap stuff, and the slab voicing (button out) fro Pizzicatto stuff. the more present mids brought out some finger noise, and woodiness in the tone, that I liked.
Either one of these cabinets, would serve 99% of bassists needs. The F112 is the perfect cab for small, low volume gigs, or gigs with decent monitors and a full PA. It's small, light, and extrememely accurate. The F115 will do anything, that your current 410 is doing. There's no shortage of volume, andthe kickback option means you can hear yourself, even under the most trying times. 3 THUMBS UP!!

I played my first show with the F115 last night. Country/blues trio, with me on upright. I just can't say enough about this cab. Amazing detail, sounds great at low volume or when cranked. It's light, so load in and out is a breeze. My amp rack weighs more I always get excited when a new greenboy design comes out, but all I can say is I highly recommend the F115! |

Here's a cool review from Jared Manzo...
Yesterday I took one of BNA Audio’s Fearless 115 cabs for a trail run on a 4 hour gig in Nashville playing everything from Jimmie Rodgers to Haggard. I was using my Englehardt bass with an Underwood pickup directly into my Eden WT-400 (which is only 235 watts at 8 ohms). Even with the EQ set flat the cab produced a tone I could be happy with. It sounds like the cab comes voiced with cleaned up low-mids which are the most important frequencies when amplifying the upright bass in my opinion. After some mild EQ tweaking, I was instantly impressed with the overall tone and the amount of thump the cab was able to put out while retaining a focused low end. I noticed there was a more balanced level than I am used to across all 4 strings which is awesome! I feel like most cabs have flabby, overdone lows which often make the notes on your D and G strings hard to hear while the E & A strings are way too bassy. This was not the case with the BNA cab! My bass sounded like MY bass was being played acoustically at a level that easily filled the decent-sized honky-tonk (Layla’s) with the volume needed to play with a rock and roll drummer without PA support. Also, no feedback or farting out whatsoever. Because the cab is so efficient with wattage it takes pressure off your amplifier, keep in mind I was only giving it 235 watts at 8 ohms which is nothing compared to amps they are making these days. I found that I could run my amp at a lower level compared to my 410 cab which is 4 ohms and 100 lbs. I am going to use the cab at another gig tonight and will add to my review. So far my consensus is that this is a superior cab than anything else you can buy today.
