someone traded me one of those crappy particle board, speaker magnet the size of a mini donut, crate compact 4x12 cabs for a tattoo. so me and a friend decided to see how much it would take before it melted (after a few shots of quervo)...here are the results:
Crate cab + crate head= still worked, sounds crappy
Crate cab + 50w Marshall tube head= still worked, cab still sounds crappy
crate cab + Carvin Vai Legacy head= still worked, cab still sounds crappy
crate cab + Fender twin= still worked, cab still sounds crappy
time to break out the big gun(insert evil laugh here)
crate cab + 1972 Ampeg SVT tube head= Cab doesnt sound crappy, doesnt sound at all, total destruction, smoke coming out of each voice coil, cones disintergrate, small flame..... we have a winner
