i just ordered an SRW Goliath II bass cab (for my bass of course) :D , but i was wondering if it would work for my keyboard too, cuz that would be perfect. Let me know what you think. :)

Should work fine, I've used bass cabs (and indeed amps) for keyboards before... be aware that your keyboard can probably produce sounds outside the 40Hz-15kHz range that the loudspeaker is quoted to work with, so perhaps don't drive your amp flat out at 700 watts into it with keyboards, but you should get a great sound at most comfortable volumes. I've never tried SWR cabs myself, I was always a Peavey cab user when I was a touring bassist (due to cost as much as anything), but I'm sure it'll sound great :)

Before I bought my SRM450 (I'm fairly certain I'll get a matching one this year), I had a small bass amp (12") I played my K2500XS out of. I found that the electric sounds (electric keyboards & organs) sounded Ok, while the piano sound were lacking. I don't play around too much with lead patch sounds but it seems like some of those saw-tooth wave forms would be lacking their edge.

Good luck, John.
