Title: 200 EUR 2x12 V30 Cab ?
Post by: hunter on February 26, 2007, 06:27:23 AM

How can they sell a 2x12 Cab below the price of two Celestion V30 speakers?

Interesting ...

I have no idea - that's really cheap.  I think Harley Benton is their own brand?  I bought some of their value strings to try out recently - 1Euro (70p) a set!!!!!  I use them on my backup guitar for gigging with and they're OK.  Can't argue for 70p!

I'd like to know how the cab sounds...

it might be their own brand, and they get in the celestions MUCH cheaper as they sell them for. Beside that I never thrusted the harley benton stuff.

if your going to put high SPL thru your cab, stay away from Harley Benton cabs.. the Framus stuff is cheap from Thomann and it's fantastic!
