    swr workingman 15 combo with horn speaker wiring question

    cost. $7.50 for the jackplate & about an hour of work compared to $175 minimum here in NY to diagnose the problem. then more $$ to fix it. Also don't like combos. This was left at my house years ago.

    swr workingman 15 combo with horn speaker wiring question

    I'm sorry, are you referring to me not understanding how these work? To be clear, the transistors in the head were burnt so I cut the top off, firmed up all the joints and did a great job turning it into a stand-alone 115.. It sounds fantastic..

    hey man. I did something similar. I cut the top off and cut a hole in the back and just use it as a 115 cab. disconnected the horn altogether..

    Hartke config question

    I was thinking about the HD cabinet. That's a nice setup! When i decide to upgrade the cab i'll definitely get it. Would love a lighter & more powerful cab.

    G-K MB500 question.

    Wondering if anyone knows anything about these differences. Which one is newer? The left has a space / right doesn't? black top screws / silver top screws? Speakon's protruding vs flush? Thanks!

    Hartke config question

    I was thinking about the bottom ported 4.5. now I'm thinking of just adding a HD210 to the 410xl or possibly selling the 410xl and getting HD 115 & HD 210 with the new GK legacy 800.. any thoughts on the combinations? what's better for deep bottom & more EQ configurable? 410XL&210HD or...

    Hartke config question

    Ive always played Hartke but i think you're right because these new ones i bought just aren't cutting it like my old Hartke rig. This was my old rig from the late 90's. was infinitely adjustable and sounded perfect. I'd like similar sound and volume in a smaller, lighter size. I've been...

    Hartke config question

    i have a lh500 / 410xl. Not getting the bottom end i'm looking for. I get the bottom at home during practice with the addition of the 1x15 cab but that's too much to lug around to shows. Question: should i replace the amp with a lh1000 or replace the cab with HD115 & HD210 Thanks.
