Title: Shielding Plate or Screen
Post by: plasticvonaband on March 05, 2011, 04:21:31 AM
Got my combo cab from GabKits today,  (beautiful cab, by the way, pics tomorrow), only one thing missing, the shielding material on the underside of the top of the cab. Not really missing, just not part of their design. Just wondering which you guys think is better for shielding, a modern shielding plate or an older fender type screen shield?

I have used cooking foil (weak and will need replacing regularly if you take the chassis out regularly) , adhesive copper foil (better, and the adhesive reacts to heat so place it and warm it with a hot air gun) and nothing. Nothing works great!

I was gonna say, yeah, nothing will work fine. I've been running my amp out of its cab for a few weeks while i tweak the insides etc. Not a single cycle of noise at present..

that being said, I'm sure there would be a situation where you'd want that shielding there; large club with lights etc nearby, also if you have a c-lator etc on top, that would induce noise without that shield.
