Note to self… and eerbody else…

Angled 4x12’s should not be converted to 2x15”’s…. Straight only….

Oh good Gawd....what did you do young man

You probably just need a slanted cut piece to set the center area up.

 

[NeubyWanKaneuby]

2x15 for guitar? I have not tried this.

 

[BeZo]

All cabs should be straight cabs.

Suck that dent out with a Shopvac hose.

 

[Mike Oxhuge]

Screws go through them that there outer holez not the speaker cone homey.

 

[JackBootedThug]

Sounds fine. I was expecting kinks you really got me fuzztone but…. It’s fine…

 

[JackBootedThug]

So explain why the volume is kinda low? They are wired in correctly. They are 700 watt 15”’s…. And while sounding good, don’t seem to have a lot of volume… do I need to port the cab or something else? Not what I expected.

I prefer the opeth version

I posted it because I ran a Strat with Fuzz Face and Echoplex, into a Plexi Superbass 100 and a JBL 2x15 Dual Showman cab, for many years.

Opeth are after my time. I left Stockholm in ‘88. I knew Marcel Jacob and John Norum quite well, and had recorded with the two original Rising Force guys. I missed the next generation coming up. In ‘88 it was all Racer X, Cacophany etc, with some Candlemass and Motörhead thrown in for luck. Kings X and Ratt if you were lucky.
Wasn’t uncommon to hear a couple of 15 year-olds immaculately alternate-picking harmony runs in Southside music store.

Being 700 watt, they aren’t going to have efficiency. That’s your problem. Suggest you give them 700 watts each then.

Give em the juice Jack

Fuck yeah.
Even better when I gave the Fuzz Face 12V regulated. It was a Dallas Arbiter BC107/BC108C - probably the best iteration.

What's the SPL rating? Larger size doesn't always equal louder volume.
Porting the cab probably won't do much volume wise. Porting is mainly for tuning the resonant frequency.

Also double check that both speakers are in phase. Volume loss could be from frequency cancellation it they are out of phase. You can test the polarity with a 9V battery.

You murderated it bro'.
