I saw an ad for them in Guitar World. They are scary speakers! Can you imagine the weight of the cab! It'll be worth it though  :twisted:

I'm guessing what I heard about having a 100 watt amp and a 600watt cab will make your amp blow up was bullshitee, right?

Definitley. A 100 watt amp and 50 watt cab...not so good. A 600 watt cab would be no problem with a 100 wat amplifier driving it because the 600 watt rating of the cab refers to HOW MUCH input wattage it can handle; as in, from an amplifier.

Darn things cost more each than a half decent 4x12 cab though.

I had a Rivera 2x12 with them in and there was no way it could be moved by one person alone, and it was tough with two people

A 4 x12- think I'll pass on that

I think Jake E Lee used to use them too

But the true question is, did the tone make up for it?

More like "That's a lot of speaker magnet!"...

Imagine a cab with 4 of those suckers in... It'll fly in the face of any manual handling regulation ever written! ;)

Nah - swapped them out for a pair of Celestion Sidewinders
Similar in some ways and has a bit more of that British sound as well

We're talking guitar valve amps not PA! Clipped tranny amps can kill speakers, clipped valve amps sound great...
