I have drooled on the Peavey web page, but I have not heard one yet. If this had came out a year ago, I would've most likely ended up with one.

Looks like a solid retrofit for a pair of 3015LFs and a new crossover/midrange driver when they get discontinued and go on sale for half price.

Probably weighs around 100lbs, and with the excursion of black widows makes for an underperforming cabinet for the weight.

Could be wrong, but overall looks like a big fat MEH from me for the price.

Sorry weight is ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY EIGHT POUNDS.

You can do old school at around 80lbs. Go check out the 2x15 with JBL K140s that jnewmark I think it was got from LDS.
