2 x 15” Carvin Carpeted bass cabs - £50 each £100 Bognor Regis

[jamesbusson]

Hi all,

 

I’m selling my late Dad’s 2 Carvin carpeted 15” bass cabs, one with tweeter. They used to be PB100 and PB200 combos but have had the amps removed.

Good condition - collection from Bognor Regis.

£50 each.

Any questions please get in touch!

Thanks

James

Hi James. You may get more interest if you can find out what speakers are in each cab. Looks like they are front loaded, so just undo the grilles, then the speaker bolts, and then lift the speakers out and take some pics. Info most people look for when buying cabs are speaker brand, wattage and ohms - this info can probably be found on the back of each speaker. GLWTS, cheers.

Thanks - have only just seen this. Will ask my mum as they are at her house!

They look very much like converted combos to me.

Makes you wonder where the amp heads went.....

Good spot Steve!

Really well spotted, thanks! My sister has opened up the one without the tweeter and it’s definitely a Carvin speaker made by Eminence as is labelled 1556LRA - specs below:

Freq. Response: 20 Hz to 20k Hz ±3 dB
RMS Power: 160 watts @ 8Ω

These are still for sale

Any idea of the weight?

[Oldman]

Light? Heavy? Medium ? Helium filled?

The Carvin spec sheet for these, as combos with their amps, gives ...

 

PB100-15: 17.5W x 12D x 22.7H. 48 lbs.
PB200-15: 17.5Wx12Dx25H. 46 lbs.

 

Subtract an estimated weight for the amps and there's a guide as to weight. Certainly not helium-filled; probably on the heavy side of medium.

Seller hasn't been here for a while so maybe a moot point.
