I'm looking for a final cab setup for the Sundown amp conversion I just finished. The amp is basically like an older Ampeg Gemini or Portaflex now. It has a very full, round sound, but clean and clear.
I'm currently running it into a 2x10 cab that contains a Ragin' Cajun and a Celestion G10S-50. I have to use a Weber Z-Matcher because the cab can only be set for 4 or 16 ohms and the amp has an 8 ohm output. Also, I don't think the 10s are allowing the total fullness of the amp to come out. I jacked it into the 15" in my Delta Blues last night and it sounded a lot fuller and smoother.
So...I'm looking to get a nice cab for this amp. Now, if there are some great 10" speakers that will give me the full sound I'm looking for, I'd go like that, but I'd want them to be either 4 or 16 ohms so I can wire the cab for 8 ohms total. I don't want to have to haul the Z-Matcher around all the time.
I'm thinking that a 2x12 or 1x15 setup might be the best way to go though. Any thinguts or suggestions along any of these lines is welcome
The sound I'm going for in this amp is its basic clear, full sound, lots of depth and bottom, clear mids and round highs.
Thanks!
