Of course the cases are extra! However, by transporting the speaker AND the extensions in the bag, it sure makes the bass console lighter. I'm glad they did it that way.
Round/Tall Barrel cases are thick and padded with heavy duty zippers...inside 4 individual pockets hold the three poles and power cords accessories etc,..Sub case sldies right over the top same thick quality fits perfect with a cut out for the handle. I highly recommend the LD Maui 5 cases for all.
