GK 410 SBX speaker question

[Noose]

How do you get to the speakers to remove them? I assume you have to take the grill off. How?

I'm just got this cab last night for 75 bucks on cl. It has a speaker that sounds like it may be blown. Not sure if it is or not cause I can't get to it. Any help would be appreciated. I'm praying the speaker issue is a cheap fix.

There are little tabs that mount the grill to the box at each corner of the grill. You can get to them through the grill with a phillips screw driver, its easy. Is it a regular SBX or an SBX plus? I have an SBX plus and its a great cab.

[Noose]

It's an SBX plus. Yeah, I've heard good things about em and they look tough as hell. Sucks that that I'm having speaker issues but if I get it figured out I'll have landed a nice cab for not much money. What head do you use with yours?

Thanks for the info on removing the grill Can't wait to get this thing working!

It's a 32 ohm driver is the impedence on the speaker jack says 8 ohm. Here is the only driver that will work with the rest of the 3 speakers...

GKs store: $100 each

Cool, thanks. I guess worst case scenario I'm only looking at 100 bucks for a replacement.

Are you certain that's the ONLY speaker that'll work? If so, Is there any specific reason? Thanks for your help, seriously.

[Wes Whitmore]

32 ohm is a big reason. You want it to be 32 ohm, as well as sound the same as the other drivers.

[Noose]

Yeah, I saw a 32 ohm 10" 200 watt speaker somewhere that I dont think is the same brand for around 70 bucks, but I guess I would be better off just buying a matching one from the manufacturer for 30 bucks more. I might also scour the local pawn shops and CL and see if the same cab turns up.

[Hopkins]

Get the one from GK, you want all the same speaker in that cab. For $175 you are still getting one hell of a deal.

Im pushing mine with a GK 700rb.

[Noose]

I'm in business!!! Took the grill off took the top two speakers out, in the process found a screw was missing. Replaced said screw, tightened up the rest and no more buzz!!! Cab sounds terrific!!!

[Hopkins]

Awesome, why cant I ever find a deal like that

[Wes Whitmore]

That's awesome! I am always finding stuff like this with used gear when I get it home. Screws are loose, wires touching baskets, air whistling out of the 1/4" sockets, fans not working, miswired cabs, cracked corners, etc. Good find!
