super quick question about Avatar B410-Neo

Sign in to disble this ad
Dudes, I just bought a b410-neo from Avatar. 8 ohms, green w/ oxblood/stripe grill.

I also just purchased a Vovox Drive speaker cable to connect amp-to-cab.
It's only a foot long. My question is, how far down from the top of the cab is that speakon input jack?
I'm hoping i don't need to be worried about it not reaching. I'll be greatly indebted
to whomever would be so very kind as to measure this for me!
Or, hell, just eyeball it and tell me whether it's close to a foot? Thanks a ton

I used to own several Avatar cabs and, if I remember correctly, the input jack was about 1/3 - 1/2 way down on the back. My guess is that a 1' cable will not be long enough. I used 3' cables and they were the perfect length.

Of course, I could be wrong as I don't own the Avatars anymore and my memory has taken a beating over the years...

Maybe a current owner will chime in with a definitive answer.

1' isn't going to reach. You'll need about 2' minimum.

My Speckon connection is 6" from the top of cab to center of connection. My cab is a Kappa Pro 4X10 but now has NEOs speakers. Not sure if the location is the same.

I wrote Dave an e-mail and he said "it looks to be about 9 to 10 inches from the top" so i should be fine i think. I hope. An extra foot of the Vovox drive thru lava cable is an extra thirty bucks or so... So, yeah, Thanks!!
