BEST CAB ?? bang for the buck

Post by Snake Hips » Sat Apr 26, 2008 2:02 pm

I figured being I am in the market for a new cab this would help. I have been looking at Avatar and heard really good things about them.  I was first thinking of respeakering my cab but it looks like it is cheaper to just get one of avatar cabs loaded. Anyone thoughts?



ALSO anyone use a 2x15 cab for guitar and bass for gigging?

Avatar rules!  I've never heard of anyone having a bad experience with them.  It's not the build quality of an orange or even quite as burly as my marshall cab....but it gets the job done and sounds really good (the most important part).

And I'll third it. Avatar is the way to go. I love their oval back openings. Airy, but with good bass response.
Excuse the fruity prose, but I love mine. Definitely the best cab I've had...way better than the Marshall 2x12 I used to use.

I'll fourth it. Love my Avatar one-twelve w/ Alnico Blue in it. Great sounding and looking cab for not too much money. The owner was extremely helpful the couple times I spoke to him on the phone. Fantastic deals on scratch and dent items if you check the site regularly.
