If that thing were at a pawn shop, it would probably end up in some kids trunk as a subwoofer.

I saw one at Music Go Round that looked to be more original than this one. They're asking $449 for it. I have a feeling they will be holding onto it for a while at that price.

Somebody got bad speaker upgrade advice on the internet and here’s the result.

And of course the resulting low price to go with it!

It was higher!

It’s why I always recommend that used cabinets are checked for original drivers and/or suitable replacements. Not a junk driver stuffed in a box. Worth just about zero.

I have a hard time believing that $289 was a higher price than the SWR Henry the 8x8 with the OEM speakers. There's a used one on sale at Reverb right now for $563.52.

Pretty sure it was somewhere a little under $400 at the beginning of its tenure at the GC. I bought it for $289, as I stated in my post it sounds fine at “testing in GC” volume. Start to give it some volume and those speakers just about jump out. It has a very distinct point where the cabinet gets resonant it rattles and farts. It’s almost like playing an octave pedal, it’s like right about that point on the A string it starts to give up the ghost where you lose tracking for an octave pedal.

I live in Reno, NV. I think this cab is at the Reno GC.. The dismal level of inventory at that location makes me wonder why they're stilll in business. And that thing.. man...

Got mine for $300… with an sm400.

That’d sound great in the back of a ‘98 civic

As in steaming pyle?

They're labeled 'Pyle' . . . Yikes!

Eeeek. I had one of these about 20 years ago, with bag end 8's, it thumped hard.

Ooh ooh! I know what's wrong with the picture: There's a really good amp sitting on top of a crap cab! What do I win?

Somehow it made its way to Atlanta

Wouldn't it be awesome if some venue bought it as a house cab?

What’s wrong with this pic? Regular price $324.00. Sale price $289.99, a savings of $34.00 give or take. What does the sign say you’re saving from the regular price? Go ahead and look. I’ll wait. Doobie smoking employee, strike two.

Those Daytons are 8 ohms, are you sure they can be wired correctly in this cab?

It will result in a 4 ohm cab. It will only be problematic (for most amps) when you run another 4 or 8 ohm cab in parallel.
