Hamster Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 My flatmate made this in the mid 1980's as his first cab build project. I've faithfully kept it for him in the spare room for years but it's time for it to go. It's in full working order, 2 x 8" speakers in the sealed top section and a 15" speaker in an 'experimental' ported enclosure below, standard jack out the back. It sounds ok for what it is and puts out some reasonable low end. I really can't remember what power handling the cab has or it's impedence, but am pretty sure all the speakers are 8 ohm and it has an internal passive crossover, which again seems to do it's job. It's 92 x 54 x 45 cms and weighs around 54kg. It has 2 x side handles and small trolley wheels. Maybe ideal for you to leave in your rehearsal space?

Dood Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 Looks like a contender for dropping an Emenence 3015LF and a couple of nice midrange speakers in. Lick of paint and a nice crossover.. very cheap project cab! * haven't checked the cab volume, bracing or whether or not the mids are seperated inside though.
neepheid Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Nothing like this ever comes up around here. I'd be all over stuff like this. Have a bump anyway
Kongo Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Could be a nice project, for the price who could complain? It beats Trace Elliot in weight though!!!
Hamster Posted June 24, 2009 Author Posted June 24, 2009 I'm willing to paint it blue and write TARDIS on it if that would help the sale
ivansc Posted July 14, 2009 Posted July 14, 2009 Hm.... bit enormous, but I DO have a chainsaw and I DO need a cheap as possible cab. whereabouts is it/are you?

ivansc Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 [quote name='Hamster' post='542703' date='Jul 16 2009, 10:35 PM']Sold, subject to the usual [/quote] The Czech is not yet in the mail but will be sat morning - going to use the monster at a gig tonight- with a lab series amp at a paltry 100 watts. At least it ought to sound period.... I suspect this will be gtetting the Hammond B3 treatment though. Thanks again, senor!
ivansc Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 ye go! what a monster!! My drummer picked it up and left it in his mum`s shed for me to collect on the way to the gig ( A country and western festival) AND BLIMEY THE THING HAS SOME BASS! Sorry - my arthritis makes editing accidental capslock slips a pain. Anyway it worked so well the organisers complained about too much bass after the first set - with a 100 watt trannie head set at about 2! Still in two minds as to whether it gets sawn in half. Back says yes, heart says no. Thanks again, Colin!
