I think it's just rediculous that we have to spend almost $1,000 on a good guitar cabinet that consists of $300 in retail materials...seemingly.
I'll probably get some nice speakers, but what does the actual cabinet consist of? (baffles, instulation, ...?)
Can anyone recommend information on building a good guitar cabinet? Has anyone ever taken one apart? Other than speakers and wires, what's in there?
Most of the google sites made it look too easy...hence my apprehension. I've made a lot of good speaker boxes, but never for a guitar.
So far, I've looked at about 30 different replacement speakers. For some reason, they all seem to have the low-pass starting around 4k. Then it drops like a rock.
The strange thing is that some of the heavy metal CDs that I have, the guitars have strong frequencies in the 5k to 15k range. That just seems weird, since the speakers drop off at 4-5k.
The more I learn, the less I understand.
