Nahas Cabs?

[Bryan R. Tyler]

Does anyone know if Nahas cabinets have a website or email address? I couldn't track one down, nor if there are any dealers that stock their cabs.

...calling Brad Johnson...

I contacted Nahas about cabs last year, he replied that he was no longer making bass cabs. Not sure what he's up to now. That might have changed, but AFAIK he's out of production.

 

[DEVILMAN]

...hmmm. That's strange. I know he did it sparingly & if true, it's quite a shame due to his quality built cabs for a very decent price.

[Bryan R. Tyler]

I guess that would explain why I couldn't find any dealer info

 

[Wilbyman]

I found his email address in one of Brad's old posts:

[email protected]

Guess it wouldn't hurt to toss a note to him.

it's a real shame to hear that he doesn't make cabs any longer. I'd bet that one of his 112's with a 115 on the bottom would be the cat's meow. I'm sure Brad can fill us in.

I believe that's the exact stack that Brad brought to the TB GTG down in VA last summer. Sounded fantastic with a Thunderfunk on top.

You should hear it when it's angry


Last I heard Joey wasn't building for the general public. I'll see if I can reach him. Still my favorite cabs.

There's a used 1-12 tiltback and a couple of other cabs at Atomic Music in College Park, MD.

Just spoke with Joey. He's building again, bass and pa cabs. Because of the issues he'd had with some customers underpowering and/or blowing up drivers, he's currently selling his cabs unloaded. I drive my 1-15/1-12 setup with a 400w amp and haven't heard anything near distress with them.

If this works for you, great.

In the past he used Eminence Delta and Kappa Pro drivers and he's looking at others to spec his cabs on. I have a Delta Pro 15 and a Kappa 12 and love my little big rig.

I have a 400w EVM Mesa Boogie Black Shadow 15" driver looking for a good home so looks like I'll be bugging him to come up with something even cooler than he already has for me. I've been tossing around the idea of a collapsible cab, along the lines of the Amplified Music Products XB-15 I have, only lots more portable. It'd be nivce to carry two 1-15 cabs on the passenger seat of the Miata... instead of just one

Joey's email address is [email protected]

Wow, thanks for the info Brad! Do you happen to remember the price of the used 1x12 (I was looking for 1x12s in particular).

Just spoke with Matt at Atomic (301 474-5752). $279 is their bottom line price. They were asking $299.

It's a front ported cab, a little larger than my rear ported 1-12.


BTW I have no commercial connection to Atomic other than hanging out way too much and taking advantage of some killer deals when they pop up.

BTW pt 2 I have no commerical connection with Joey, rather a friendly one and as a very satisfied customer. It's like owning a potato gun that shoots a mile... you just want to tell everyone about it

Hmmmmm..........I wonder about pulling the speaker, crossover and horn in my Berg HT112 and having them put in a bigger cab.

What would be the desired result? What would become of the carcass?

I feel that the Berg horn and crossover are the best that I've heard. However, the 112 cab is very small and lacks the low end that I've had in the past with something like the Epifani 112NYC cabs. I'd love to find something that's the best of both worlds.

Brad have any pictures on the cabs?

Here's a side shot... the Nahas are stacked, the other cab is a Bag End S15-D.

Front shot: I've since painted the baffle boards black on both cabs.

I love that rig. Brad I was concerned that you had dumped your rig when I saw the 112 and Bag End 15 at Atomic !! Thank goodness you did not.

I'll be in touch with Joe. Thanks for the info !!

What's up, Vinnie

I still check everything else out cab-wise and I'm still happy with this rig. Very happy.
