Here is my pair of GK 412's. I bought them used and a bit beat up. Stripped the tolex had them sprayed with line-x. Replaced all of the hardware and recovered the grills.
WOW man those look nice! I've been wondering what my PV's would look like in that ampeg cloth. They already came factory with that sort of spray on rubbery stuff.
Nice!
Does a 4x12 get me in?
Shipping weight was 125
OH yeah you get a numba...
Ampeg SVT-810E

SO.......CLOSE.....TO JOINING!!!!! GERGLE! I want that #200, but I won't have the cab finished in time! Sheeeooooot!
Can I join (no pics available at the moment)? I've got a mid 90's beater Ampeg 810, an old Sunn 215 Beta Bass cab loaded w/ 3015LF's and the best cabinet I've ever played through, the storied Bergantino NV215.
oh no... somehow in the list... i got missed.
sold my peavey 810 to pay for my ampeg 810-e.
i think that qualifies as large enough, doesn't it?
(going to put spring loaded handles on the bottom for easy transport up and down stairs)
the guitard in one of my bands hasn't even seen it yet (we've been on hiatus) and is going to freak out when he sees it (he tends to do that any time i get new gear... which is more often than i probably should.)

I just tried out the big Sunn cab in the warehouse where my band rehearses. It was very punchy but wasn't that big on the bottom end, which surprised me. I thought maybe it was a guitar cab, but we were playing at fairly high volume and I didn't hear any speaker farting, so I'm not sure.
Any numbers?
I remember seeing one of those at my local Music Go Round store perhaps 7 - 8 years ago. How well do the highs from the 8s (they're 8s right?) match with the lows from the Vega 18?
Yup, they're 8s. I'm not sure how they sound to the crowd but standing 2 feet in front of it, its a good balance. I played through an Ampeg 8x10 and compared to that it the highs seem a little more brittle and thin (which isn't too bad for popping actually), but the 18 gets those ground shaking fundamentals like no other. I wish I could compare it to one of those Rickenbacker Transonics with the massive 30" driver, but I haven't seen any in person. I prefer these 8"ers over a tweeter, but that's just my opinion. My ears dig the vintage/Motown sound.
I bet that traynor cab pounds the crap out of the thing with the 30" driver. Big cone doesn't necessarily equal big bass.

Man that really is a nice cab. I would sure like to come across one of those folded cabs sometime...
Is this an 810 or 215? Hard to tell at this angle:
His profile indicates that it's an 810E...
Did Loud make any 2x15s (as his cab has "Loud-era" corners)?
