hello guys, i have a little studio, and i plan on buying mini heads like the engl 15 watt gigmaster, the orange dark terror and the dual rectifier mini. Do i need to get a 2x12 cab, or is 1x12 fine for recording? Also should i buy matchign speaker cabs, or is a mesa cab good enough for all the heads. I am sure this is a dumb question, but i would like your input. thanks.
mini heads and cabs?

i have a krank rev jr 20w which runs through a V30-loaded 2x12, and they vibe pretty well together. i honestly wouldn't mess around with 1x12 cabs - just get a nice 2x12, and run them all through that.

I have a Tiny Terror, a Dark Terror and a Krank Rev Jr and run them through a 4x12 Engl with v60's and vint30's. They sound sweet! And they have way enough power to make the speakers move as they should... If you have a 4x12 mesa, I'd say you're good to go.
I use a 50w 5150 III through an Orange 2x12... not really a mini or lunchbox amp, but this is one of the easiest setups to record I've ever owned.

I have had quite a few of the mini heads,
Krank Rev Jr (The exact same one Kurtz has..literally...lol)
Mini Recto
Jet City JCA 20H
Egnater Tweaker
Marshall Class 5
I find the 2x12 work best with
Mini Recto
Krank
Marshall
I found 4x12 were necessary for the
Jet City and Egnater
They dont push much low end.

I've seen a couple of Dual Rectifer vs Mini Rectifier clips online, and have surprisingly preferred the Mini recorded, although the larger amps definitely have more lowend.
