| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: Pelham, AL | | | I knew 18's were involved...that does make more sense with it being a 1x18...I was wondering how 4 freakin 18's fit in a cab the size of a fridge cab...I got some wrong info somewhere down the line.....

I believe it was associated with then 370 series of heads in the early 70's). Kind of a strange cab... weighed a ton, sounded 'OK'.

| | | | Traynor had two 8"s in the space where the blue panel resides. That would take care of it's mid/high deficiency. |

That would still sound like mush compared to today's cabs, but back in the day, it was an impressive cab, and meshed will with the low end attenuated and mid grindy/distorted solid state heads of that day (Acoustic, GK, etc.). |
