I guess I found my perfect cab: small size, lightweight, easy to carry around, but enough power for the bedroom, rehearsals, small stages in bars - in other words, it can keep up with a moderate drummer. I use it for electric AND acoustic guitars. These are my main scenarios. I will later add a small 10” sub to go with it for bigger stages. But for 80 % of my uses the sub is not needed.
I had it custom built from Marco Wendel at blueamps in Germany ( http://www.blueamps.de/ ). He builds high quality cabs/amps and is both, electronic engineer and musician/guitar player.
Now for the specs:
40 x 30 x 24 cm (15.7 x 11.8 x 9.5 inch)
10.7 kg (23.6 lbs)
Stereo amp: 2x 180 Watt RMS, 2x 360 Watt max (switches to Mono when only one input is used, mono comes from both sides)
2x Carbon 6" speaker (150 watts each) + Tweeter (not coax) + crossover + bassreflex port
70hz (!) – 17 khz flat, a slight dip after 10 khz
121 db max
Aux in switch
The sound of this cab is gorgeous considering its small size! The unique character of the IRs jumps right from the cab in your face. Does not sound like Hifi or PA-Monitor at all. No harsh frequencies or icepicks which were my biggest concern. Nice round smooth tone instead. Handles high levels very well, doesn`t fart out. Bass won`t make your trousers flap, this is not a 12”, but enough bass for my needs. I think it is very well suited for clean and breakup tones.
Not coaxial? No problem as the dimensions of this cab are so small. Stereo? Yes, it makes a difference even with such a small cab. Compared to mono, stereo in my bedroom sounds more fresh, vivid and fat. High quality comes at a price: Around 1100 to 1200 dollars. That´s quite a lot but this little gem is worth every penny. I do not work for blueamps and have no relation whatsoever to the maker of this cab.
More to come as soon as I tried it in different scenarios and rooms.
