In 1996, Italian Marco De Vergiliis, who had previously worked in the amplifier industry, joined Parsek, where he initially worked in marketing, support and sales. However, in the late 90s he met Sterling Ball from Music Man and together they developed Music Man's Audiophile amplifier range. This was also the starting signal for the use of lightweight neodymium speakers, for which the Markbass brand, founded by De Vergiliis in 2001, is known to this day.
The Standard 102HF speaker is a compact 2x10 speaker that, thanks to neodymium magnets, is also relatively light at 25 kg and follows the general trend that bassists no longer want to lug around equipment weighing tons. Nevertheless, the speaker achieves a high efficiency and produces a warm sound that makes it ideal for medium to large basses, whether as a stand-alone solution or as part of a full stack. Manufactured in the well-known Markbass quality, the cabinet is of course still absolutely roadworthy.
