Rigs of Doom; Part 4

Josh Pelican said:
I'm still running an Ampeg SVT-CL into the matching 810. I hope to get my SVT-VR fixed in the new year. If I do, I am very tempted to have it rebuilt by Emperor, than get a matching cab for it. Oh, how amazing it would be. That's doom by default.

In the new year, I would like to build some fEarful cabs to have lots of variety. If I don't, my goal for 2012 is to get a 610 and 215 (either Bergantino or LDS). It will happen. Oh, yes. It will happen.

I once owned an Ampeg V4B w/ straight back Ampeg V2 4x12 cab, an Acoustic 370 and 2- 301 Cabs, a 1x15" Thiel cab, 1x18 Thiel cab and an old Sunn something-or-other amp....all occupied one stage... sadly no pictures of entire rig. many moons ago!
**edit** - dont know if it sounded worth a darn, but it sure was cool, hehe.

Very cool!!! If you point it south and turn it up, I could probably hear you!!!

They look great like that, but have you tried running the speakers vertically?

I did have them side by side and I just stacked them like that a couple of days ago to see what it would be like.
The neck pickup has a bit more bass so I put that cab on the floor leaving the bridge pickup almost at ear level.
So far it sounds great.

arent there some ground rules here? Such as, "if you can one hand it, not an amp of doom". If there arent there should be. As pointed out in another thread, quite a few rigs posted in these "Rigs of Doom" threads could fit in the back of a Civic with room for passengers.

Well, I can't one hand my rig, let alone my head. I'm just using an Ampeg SVT-CL into the 810. I wouldn't consider it a rig of doom compared to some of the other amps here! Maybe if I grab another 810 and get my VR working...
