    That sounds right up my alley, thanks!

    The entire reason I came here was to avoid putting random speakers in the cab. I do love the way the cab sounds. I don't expect it to sound exactly the same with new speakers. I'm not an idiot. If I put higher end 10s in my 810 it would sound different too. I want to use it with different amp...

    Well they were talking about porting "tuning" those cabs too. I guess I'm just trying to understand is what properties of a cab I need to measure against driver specifications in order to make the best driver selection. I don't expect to make this thing sound like a commercially produced high...

    Ok so - in that case, how do I determine what drivers would be best suited to this cab? Also - what is different about what these guys have done, and what I want to do? Ampeg V4 - 4x12 Cabinet - Speaker Suggestions

    Well I played an Svt through one and it sounded great. Everything sounded really full and articulate. A lot better than the modern 810s I usually play through. I wanted to change the drivers to improve versatility, and handle higher wattages. 800-1000 range. Is there something fundamentally...

    I like 12s and 15s more than 10s personally. It's less expensive to find cabs like this on craigslist than to have one built. I'm going to try and find a matching 2x15 too.

    Im planning to replace all the speakers. I guess I didn't make that clear.

    Well I wouldn't put in drivers that weren't designed for bass. Could I just do 4 and 16 ohms in that case?

    Alright, well a cab with 4,8, and 16 ohm taps

    I picked up this cab off craigslist for 50 bucks, after playing an identical one a couple months ago at a show and loving it. The dude I got it from was using it as a stereo speaker or something and pulled the wires through the 1/4" tap so I need to get it rewired. Aside from that there is...

    Broken tube/shipping incident

    When I originally bought it the item description said it came with a rack case, but it didn't. They just raw dogged it in the box with bubble wrap.

    Make sure they don't ship it to you wrapped in bubble wrap and a single walled box like they did to me!

    Let me know how it turns out!

    Broken tube/shipping incident

    Yeah that's the one haha. They called me and asked if I wanted to buy it again. The tubes were smashed, and there was a lot of damage to the chassis and faceplate. The faceplate is reeeeally banged up and the bottom two screws snapped off so it's only attached at the top. I didn't crack it open...

    Broken tube/shipping incident

    I rolled the dice with this one on Craigslist so my recourse is pretty limited. I should have specified tube packaging, but ya win some, ya lose some. I got a really good deal on this second purchase from guitar centers used section, so I think I can flip this into a positive.
