Cab made world of difference!!

[BloodRose]

Yeah, I know this is the Pedal Board.. But... I got my Splawn 4x12 out of storage and have been using it instead of my Avatar 2x12 (which is a great cab). My pedals sound SO much bigger and different when using the Splawn cab! Its almost unbelievable..
I imagine Im a dork and sounds bigger cuz of extra speakers. But some of the pedals I wasnt so impressed with are really hitting the mark now.. Awesome!

What speakers are in each cab?

Sometimes a boring-sounding distortion can come to life with a bigger speaker cab. The RockTron Zombie was advertised this way, but I found the same with most pedals.

I think he has Splawn Smallblock speakers, which are their tweaked version of an H30 and made by Eminence. I'm curious what his Avatar is loaded with.

Correct!! The Splawn cab has 4 Smallblocks. The Avatar cab has 2 Celestion G12T-75s

Small Blocks are their take on an M25. The Big Block is what you're thinking of.

I've never been a fan of the T75s and I don't think I'm alone in that.

A popular combo for 2x12s lately seems to be a Creamback M and a Creamback H.

Even first gen T75s sound WAY better than the current gen.



Here's a speaker comparing it to a bunch of other speakers.

Re: Cab made world of difference!!

Ive thought of going with a Vin 30 and a greenback in the 2 x12. Ive heard the 75s have to be driven hard to be at their best and I dont get to play like that
