Yeah, had a pair of E-140's and loved them, always wondered how using them for lows in a biamped set up with a single E-130 for low-mids would have sounded.

I was thinking this as well.

It's a Sunn 200S, probably a 1968 or very early 1969. The grill cloth is correct. They only came OEM with JBL D140F's unless they were custom ordered, and that was a very small percentage.

Shame it got away, it looked extremely clean for a 45 year old cab.
If those are the factory JBL's and they're healthy, it's worth considerably more than $50.

Utterly frigging awesome in my experience!
Such a shame he missed it really. That old 4" tin can top end is well worth a microphone IMHO.

This is my old fender signature D120f in an old Tannoy i12 cab in my 12" speaker isolation room. My son has my D130f in his studio, sod having very little Xmax, nothing sounds better or more agile for bass upper mid response in my book.
