Well besides a company out of the UK selling replacement 6.5" SLM Electronics 86-126-08 for 29eu, I could potentially use the Eminence Beta6A's but the cost of replacing four is $240 so I'm thinking of replacing the cab with a 410HE. The sad thing is this 806 was in perfect condition. Literally...

When you say mediocre what are you referring to? The amount of air being pushed or the sound quality? I'm just curious because everyone has different opinions about performance. I'm not really interested in something too big or that handles many more watts then my current combo. But yeah...

Its definitely an old cabinet I think they stopped making them in the early 00's. Guy we got it from never played it out and it's gotten quite a good bit of gigging usage since we purchased it in early 2017. But it was like new when we bought it. Also it gets used by the two bands I'm in. I'm...

Hello folks, new member here. At a gig last night our trusty Ampeg 806HE completely stopped outputting sound during the very first song of the set (It was our album release show too) Anyway I thought it was the amp so today I plugged it in and all is well. Turns out the cab is the culprit. Four...
