This is as small as I go for a backup to the tube amps. All stuffed into a shallow rack case, about 25 pounds.

Also about 25lbs in a shallow rack, definitely not more than 30

| | Registered User | | Join Date: May 2007 Location: Detroit | | | OK, here's the point...... It's hard to tell from the picture, but it's a 10.5" deep rack case with the new Crown light power amp which weighs 8.5 lbs. and can power 4 810 cabs (Not that I use 4 810's.) Not only is it smaller than the previous backup in a full size rack, it dropped almost 40 lbs.
Why do I want a 25 lb. rack when I'm hauling a 140 lb. cab? It's a backup rack.

| | Banned | | Join Date: Jun 2009 Location: mental institutionzs | | | I've been thinking of one of those racks, my amp is 10.5 deep not including rear switches and stuff. Do think it would fit ? I may raise the amp a little and dremel the rear opening to make it fit. Like if an amp was 12inches deep would I have to remove much material to get it through the back, if that helps explain it any better. |

I could easily shave it down to three spaces, or even two if I wanted to run my Peavey IPR 1600 off of my VT pedal rather than my Ashly preamp. |

Is she 8 or 4 ohms? Finally, is she for sale?  |
