Post your thoughts about the new Front-Loaded Diezel cabs

Are they really $600 better than a Mills?

What I wouldn't give to A/B a Mills with a new Diezel for a few hours.

It's subjective. I loved the Mills when I first played one. Then I got it side by side with my Ubercab and USA made Diezel cab. I still liked the Mills best, but it was really just marginally better than my Bogner cab IMO. I have v30s/gk100s in my Bogner/Diezel cabs. The Mills had all v30s. If buying new (not already owning the Bogner cab), the Mills is the best value. My issue was that I already owned two nice cabs. Nonetheless, I had ordered 2 Mills cabs, but a change in circumstances led me to cancel the order the next day. Anyhow, now I'm interested in the front loaded Diezel cabs. Money is not an issue for me. I just care that it's better to me. Still, the Diezel cabs alot of cash for a cab. Since I already have 2 nice cabs, I look at it as "what else could I buy instead" more than is it really worth $600 more than something else - cause I'm sure it sounds great.

For most of the population, $600 really isn't all that subjective, but if it is for you, congratulations. I would want the cab to be at least 60% better if we are just going by money.

I can't compare it to Mills, but to Bogner, Mesa Recto, Engl XXL, etc. and it blows all of them out of the water in every aspect. I know it's hard to believe, but that's just the way it is.

I highly recommend getting one - you'll very likely end up selling those other cabs you have.

What is it about the cab that you feel makes it better than the Bogner cab?

Do you feel it's the cab doing that or the speakers? Or some combination of both. I ask because, my Bogner cab sounded alot better to me when I replaced the g12T75s with G12k100s (mixed with v30s).

 

[Duolos]

Speakers of course make a difference but don't for a minute think that the cab materials and construction do not matter because it does in a major way...so the answer is both. Throw a G12K100 in a rear loaded cab and it is vastly different to my ears. I am not a fan of that speaker in a rear loaded cabinet. I know tone is subjective but that is my own opinion.

In all seriousness: I totally agree.
