#1 For sale - 4x 8" guitar speakers - 4ohm.

Post by chris661 »

Hi guys,

Just getting around to putting on sale the 4x 8" guitar speakers I took out of the cabinet that now has the 4x10"s in.

The cabinet was rated at 60w, so guesstimate of 15w a piece (though I'd expect them to take more without complaint).

When I'd had them for a while, I decided there was too much "tizz" (for lack of a better word) when using distortion. Knowing that dustcaps radiate the HF, I removed the dustcap from one, tried that, liked it, them chopped up the lot.
The result was a smoother sound that I was fairly happy with, but decided that, for bass guitar, larger speakers should be used.

I'll post pictures this evening. They're nothing particularly special (no brand name etc, but they came out of a Hartke cabinet), but go plenty loud (equivalent cone area of 2x12"s), with plenty of oomph even in an open backed cabinet.

I can bring these to Owston, or buyer to collect.

Looking for in the region of £60.

Chris
