that is actually what i thought they looked like but i didnt think it was gonna be that simple :D

i dont mean to be a pain but how did you attach them, did you put them over the old feet or remove the old ones and glue them on?


cheers :)


Dave

well,

i did have to remove the old little feet, but nothing my pocket knife and careful prying wont accomplish. the feet have their own sticky adhesive to they'll stay on for a long time.

Epifani cabs are the best :smug:

woah!

very nice. easily my fav cabs under one roof. :D
 
The cab is an old Radio Shack Guitar cab that I rebuilt.

It is computer modelled with WinISD and has 2x12
Eminence Delta 12 LF drivers, 3 ports were added and a few
piezo tweetypies. I actaully plan to redo those when I get a
little time to silk domes with high pass x-overs. Also, MJ5150
sent me a set of Eden handles that I have not yet installed.

It needs some little tweaks, but it sounds great.

It is pictured with an Eden WT-300. I gave that to my son and replaced it with a Wt-400.

me likes... :cool:
 
Also small and homemade: 2 eminence legend b102 10" speakers (with wizzer cone). The lower one tuned for a deep and balanced bassresponse and able to handle the full power on low frequencies without xmax trouble, to suit my double bass. The upper one to add high end and clarity, and to be directed to my ears on a small stage. It's kind of a shroeder cut in two. The Hartke will be a Little Mark soon.

It doesn't have looks of doom, but the sound is quite big and it weighs 17 kilo's (without the amp). Downside: I recently bought a Volvo-estate, there are no limitations to rig size anymore. :hmm:

Okay, how much? :D
 
A couple of my mini-rigs that are fun, sound great, and get pretty loud.

The Carvin combo is a new thing. I swapped in a 1992 PB150-H head (much better than the PB100 Series II head that came with it) and an Eminence BassLite CH2010 hemp cone neo. By itself, the combo is much sweeter and fatter sounding than one would think of a Carvin mini-combo. I really like the sound of the combo with the Bag End S15X-D. 150 watts into these two speakers makes a lot of sound. Big, loud, detailed, warm. The PB150-H is a very underrated small travel head. Really everything you'd want other than a built-in DI.

Then of course, to the right, there is the Eden CXC-110/CX-110 stack. What can I say, other than it's excellent in all respects other than perhaps ultimate volume levels? It's prettier than the Carvin/Bag End stack. Ah, that Eden tone.. smooth as silk, warm, punchy.

I will probably be taking the Carvin out to rehearsals more often because it's 2/3 the weight of the CXC-110, and has a cover. I've found it's always nice to have two combos. Keep one at home to rehearse with, and one at the venue or rehearsal space.

Comments and questions are invited. ;)

I almost didn't play on this topic because of all the high-end stuff that inevitably made its appearance, but I do like these amps a lot, and I have less in this whole pile than those Epi stacks go for. :smug:

Depends on if I am gonna be getting some of the carpet you are selling. :hyper:
I want a peice that has been touched by Mikebass. :smug:

I got it rebuilt start to finish for about $175 iirc with the
drivers and all the parts. All in all, it was an excellent project
and reusing and strengthening an existing box I liked made
sense.

And with the Eden, is just sounds killer.
