Folded Horn Configurations?

Was just going to say Randall. I may have had that same cab. Like 1985 era? 212 with speakers horizontal center mount. Heavy cab! I blew it up then replaced w jbl’s and still remember the nightmare of having to use a regular screwdriver to remove/replace the (seemed like a zillion) 2” wood screws in the back.


I have one, great cab really. Weighs 4 million pounds but sounds great

I wish I knew some specs on it, like power handling
 
I've been playing a folded horn cab on bass guitar for 30 years. My amp has a extensive EQ, so I can get just about any sound or boost I need. Have to admit though, I play an additional amp with 3 15s that really compliment each other. In the 70s & 80s, most bassplayers in large concerts all played Ampeg SVT amps thru Cerwin Vega folded horns. Sweetest sound in the world...
