|  | Registered User Builder for Audiokinesis, Big E, and Greenboy speakers | | Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Chicago | | | Interesting. I was talking to the Faital rep yesterday. He said that Genz switched exclusively to Faital drivers. I thought they mostly did neo. (he said that they have tons of neodynium on hand--they bought 200 tons or so he says). I usually associate Faital with Neo, but I guess that they do ceramic also. |

|  | Registered User | | | | | These guys are firing on all cylinders! Three nice lines of neo cabs, and now a lower priced ceramic line that is pretty much 'neo lightweight' (I assume due to the cab material and design).
Something for almost everyone.
And, Faital drivers are awesome. Great quality stuff, and looks like plenty of supply. |

Ampeg has some great stuff, I just don't like that BA115 combo. I and see this CTR500-115T as a real nice candidate... Quote:

Probably the most on the ball bass amp/cab manufacturer in the current market, IMO.
Definitely saving for a new Genz amp....but no rush....going to get the 'right' one.

Genz will not show a product unless it is ready to ship... May want to call your dealers.. They may not know yet since Genz Benz allows the TB community to get a little sneak peak.
. Im guessing but I may be wrong,, but the Website may wait until start the actual of NAMM show next week before they do a 3am update to the site... Just guessing...
