| | | | Show Your Vertical Stacks After reading a bunch of opinions about phase issues and other anomalies, I decided to stack my mixed speaker Mesa Diesel cabs.
What a difference! Sounds better everywhere I stand and I can hear myself better than ever.
Any of you guys, or gals try this? Show your stuff.

| | | | I know the results don't always look great, but, it's about the sound. Right?

| | | | I have to admit that I didn't think changing the direction of 2x10's from horizontal to vertical over a 15" cab wouldn't make a difference. Boy was I wrong.
Thanks to all the guys here who suggested it.

Thanks to all the guys here who suggested it. | Now you just gotta try two vertically stacked matched 210's or two matched 115's and report back!

Also, unsure if it was purposeful, but in the bottom pic, the vertical rack case is humorous  . Had the other rack case & head been propped up vertically, tongue-in-cheek, that would have been the coup de grace  . Quote:

That one is huge and on wheels.

The effects are a Boss ME-50B and Korg Pitchblack tuner.
It's a Richter Scale thing.

It's a Richter Scale thing. | I bet that stack registers on it too.  |
