Anyone ever try a Behringer 4X12 cab?

[Budweiser]

I would like to get a Marshall 1960A 4X12 cab for my AVT50 (until I buy a JCM2000 head), but these Behringers with Jensen speakers are 1/3 the price.

Are they any good, or should I save up & get the Marshall cab, or maybe hunt down a used one?

Thanks - Rob

Stay away from the Behringers. Go to www.avatarspeakers.com

I played one and can't recommend it. It sounded muddy, very bassy and had too sharp highs. It may be a nice deal, but I would look for something else...

Yeah, I've heard nothing but OUTSTANDING reviews of these cabs.

I own a couple and they're good. Having the ability to choose the speakers goes a long way to tailoring the cab to your taste and budget.

$150 US for the 4X12 cab eh? I wonder what that would work out to in Canadian $ plus shipping to Thunder Bay, Ontario Canada?

How would you compare that Crate to a Marshall cab?

it sounds great with everything i've thrown at it: crate head, mesa f-50. handles clean, medium gain and high gain with ease. it's a good cab, just don't let the crate name fool ya.

it is $86 usd for shipping

$285 for the cab and shipping in canadian dollars

I'd avoid *any* MDF made 4x12...
