Title: different size cabinets with overtone? Post by: guvmuleman on June 07, 2008, 04:50:48 PM Hi, I am a newbie. I should be getting my overtone on monday. I have a 1x15 cab that I use and was wondering since it seems like most people here are using 1x12 or 2x12, if anybody uses other size cabs with their overtones? thanks, and I enjoy this forum very much.Mike

Title: Re: different size cabinets with overtone? Post by: Bluestone on June 08, 2008, 07:53:49 AM Ive tried two different cabs to date. 1x12 open back & 2x12 closed back.
My personal preference was for the open back as it gave a noticably bigger sound. The closed back has a very directional sound and lost some of the ambience and subtle tone characters of this wonderful amp. Ive played Fender combo amps for years and I`m used to the sound of an open back cab, which i feel also suits this amp. You should consider trying both for yourself.

If you can get to a shop with a selection of cabs perhaps take the head with you and try some out.
Open back 2 x 12" seems to be the most popular combination with a head, however there are a lot of combos out there with just the one 12" speaker. Good luck, Cat Title: Re: different size cabinets with overtone?

Very friendly and good service. The cab looks pretty good. It is light and it was fairly cheap. I even got a huge discount on the speakers. My cab has 2 x G12-65 heritage speakers. It is a closed back cab but you can take out a part of the back panel. Best of both worlds. No idea what it sounds like cause I haven't got my map yet :chairdance: |
