    Avatar ct cab or Randall RV cab

    They're both $300 and both have celestion vintage 30 s in them. The only difference is the Randall has wheels. I'm playing mostly Hard Rock and metal which one would be the better purchase? I'm using a jet City jca22h and hopefully picking up the cab around 5pm. Thoughts and opinions please.
