New Gallien-Krueger MBX cabs! (what are they though?)

[metallicafan18]

I was looking around on MF and I found these. Anyone know anything?

I always loved steel grills.

They're extension cabs for the MB combos aren't they? I came across the MBE series cabs myself recently, thinking about getting one to add on to my Neo 212.

They may be, but there are other cabinets on MF that say MB cabinets. I think these are something different.

Gallien-Krueger seems a bit overextended these days. They cannot keep up with demand in a down market, their new product intros have been problematic and there website is incomplete. It doesn't really inspire confidence.

Looks to me like they may be replacing the BLX line as MF has their BLXs listed as clearance. Specs look similar with 100 watt tens and 200 watt 15s.

I see they have a a tweeter it looks like. The BLX never had one. These look very similar to the NEO series. The 410 weights about the same as my NEO 410.

These have a ceramic magnet speakers though, compared to the neodymium magnets in the NEO's. The also have half the power rating as the NEO.

I agree. They really need to fix their website, and stop making new products, and supply more of what they already have. Everything seems to be backordered.
