Title: COMBO-BREAKER!
Post by: ChunkyMunky on January 29, 2009, 01:18:50 AM

Not seriously breaking combos here, guys and gals!  :lol:

So in your experiences how do find head and cab combos? Do the same brands help? Or do you like to mix and match?

I have a Laney VH100R with a Mac Amplification 2x12 (which we suspect is made by matamp)

No problems, and if i hadn't had this cab already i'd be getting a black-tolex Orange 2x12 instead, as they're apparently awesome and i love the look.

Some manufacturers make great amps, but fall short on the speaker cabinet side of things, there is no shame in using a mixed brand head & cab setup.

It only really matters if your endorsed!

Try as many cabs as you can before you buy. If you have the amp already take it to a decent shop and a/b the cabs, you get a better idea.
