What is this vintage cab?

Sign in to disble this ad
If anyone can help me identify this cab I would really appreciate it. It appears to be fairly old. The cab itself has no markings to speak of, that I can find.

I am not sure if it is any EV cab or if it just has an EV speaker. It appears to have a 15 Inch speaker on the bottom probably like a 12 inch speaker in the center that says EV, and the top has a smaller section, probably with highs.

It has wheels on the side, so that you can lean it over and push it. There is only one input and no power cord so i'm fairly sure it isn't powered. Here are some pics...I will get some better pics when I get home.

This cab is for sale, so if anyone is interested let me know, and if anyone has any idea what its worth, I would appreciate any input you can give me. Thanks for your help.

The metal strips make it look like an old Peavey, but that speaker configuration is not a Peavey I'm familiar with.

Looks like an old EV pa cab -for school and church vocal stuff. Music, not so much.

I thought of that, but the wheels and the handle?

Even though the primary use at one point in time may have been fixed locations, almost every small(ish) cab is designed to be movable.

Wheels on the side (or back) is a standard procedure on PA gear.

I have no idea what the drivers are, but I'd sure take a better look and test 'em.

Regards

True enough, but cabs like this where designed to roll out of a closet into a HS or church gym for podium mic reinforcement.

It could also be a butchered acoustic 261 guitar cab (horn removed, upper driver replaced, new grille cloth), see
