Title: Amp Cab
Post by: pedalman on January 02, 2014, 07:19:10 PM
Anybody ever try building a 4x8 cab ? I was thinking about this when I seen the Celestion eight 15's
Might be a cool little match for the tiny giant

What about the Marshall slant cab plans and just make it for 4 8's instead of 12's?

Here is 2 plans I had in my archive

I find the straight cabs to sound better than the angled ones, but that's just my 2c.  :)

I have never owned a slanted cabinet.. I wonder if they sound better in larger spaces.. hmm

I just saw that a dude over at tdpri was building a 4X8 and he may be able to help also.
