I'll admit that I have been using the carry case for my WD800 to tilt my cabs back for many years. That thing has really held up in that role.

Now, having admitted that, I also use one of those OnStage folding amp stands too, and have been known to use a painted piece of 2x4 as well as 2 red clay pot feet in the shape of a lions heads.

Best piece of gear I ever bought

This is what I use but not sure if it's still being made.

Not what you are looking for. Finding one of these might prove difficult.

That's it. Now I understand why it doesn't show up in my searches. The spring loaded handle is probably the next best thing. Or, I could find the brick again -- they probably threw it out the back door.

My need has to do with playing on a really cramped stage, and I think that I could hear myself better if I "split the difference" with the audience. It's so tight that there's really no space for anything. Trying to get 19 players, including drum kit and grand piano onto a stage at the end of a relatively small club.

I find that elevating the amp helps to monitor better. A slight tilt back can help but isn’t necessary when it is elevated. I’ve used a tall 30” case with about the same size footprint as the amp with good results.

You might try one of these, mounted under the front center of the cabinet with a m20 bolt of the appropriate size.

On-Stage SSA20M​

I once remember seeing (probably on TB) a plastic foot that attaches to the bottom of a speaker, and flips up for tilting the speaker back.

I've searched high and low. Any ideas? I've been propping up my amp with a brick that I found outside my band's main venue, but it's disappeared. I don't want to carry more stuff, since the logistics for this gig are atrocious.

35 degrees

55 degrees (same stand - you flip it around). Purpose built - you gotta know where the center of gravity is to do this right.

I like the amp wedge very much and also use the folding onstage stands one that I keep in gig bag sometimes.

I posted that Henriksen folding wedge, because, for some odd reason, these flat folding wedges are pretty hard to find. I use an On-Stage wedge. Discontinued, it seems. They were fairly inexpensive, and they all seem to work great. Mine is in my double gig bag at all times, it sits right behind my charts. Fantastic product. Mark Bass makes one, too. Here's my Rumble 2x10 cabinet, sitting on my folding cart. Adding the wedge makes it a LOT easier for my old ears to hear. No standing waves with this setup, onstage, either.

Markbass Amp Stand

This is a wedge, firm plastic panels, super tough nylon fabric and velcro. This folds up flat, fits in your amp bag, weights nothing, very strong, and velcro, to grip a carpeted cab. The angle allows you to hear your cabinet and tweeter, rather than fire it past you knees. What a difference this little thing makes.

I use on gigs a 3 ring binder with old papers in it.

Instant wedge.

 

[CK McLaughlin]

I made built-in tilt-back stands for several of my combos from a rectangular piece of 1/4" plywood and a light piano hinge. I screwed them to the bottom of the cab and just flip them down to raise the front of the cab about 4" or so from the floor. I used a few pieces of self-stick velcro to make sure they stay put when moving the cabs. They help me hear myself much better when i have to stand right in front of my cab, which is the case at most of the tiny dives that I gig at.

another VOX tilted - no problem.

Those are no longer available from the original supplier as they were discontinued years ago. We (Jeff and I) had originally specified this part in a number of products back in the day. There may be some available as clone parts, but not that I have found.

Ha!! I remember that we designed this with TCH hardware for the original Shuttle combos and cabs. Worked great on smaller cabs.
