Display Cab??

[ashtray]

Someone on CL is selling a "display model" Eden 8x10 cab. Oh, like the store demo model? No - they state the cabinet is real and wired up but the speakers are all dummy speakers. What???

Has anyone heard of this before? I've seen cabinet "faces" that were for stage props, or full empty fake boxes for that visual wall of sound for concerts - but this sounds like its a real (assuming heavy) cabinet wired up - but fake speakers.

For what purpose would that be a display?

Creative story from that pawn shop - "A" for effort . I suspect it is just a blown cab. Nobody makes fake speakers - they'd cost more than real ones.

Yeah, I've never heard of fake speakers before.

How would you connect wires to fake speakers? Without it being a fire hazard?

Yeah. It's just broken.

Would cost more than the cabinet is worth to replace 8 speakers. Reconing probably isn't a possibility because they don't appear to be stock Eden drivers (which usually have a greyish cone):
