Suggest a cab for me...

[StratTom]

So as I mentioned in my thread earlier I just bought a Peavey 5150II. Now I'm gonna need a cab for it. I'm in no rush to get one, but I'd like some suggestions. I'd like a 2x12 cab preferably, no 4x12's, just too much for playing at home. I'm open to all suggestions. Thanks in advance!

I love my Bogner 2x12 loaded with Celestion Lead 80's. It honestly sounds better and fuller than my old 4x12. These are among the best cabinets made today. If you want something that will last through all of your guitar playing days, then this is the cab 4 U.

As I'm sure someone is bound to mention, check out avatar cabs at avatarspeakers.com. They're cheap (in price) and high in quality. You can customise the cab with and grill color, speakers, ohmage, whatever you want. I think 2x12s there are as cheap as $280 or something.

Peace.

P.S.- Try an eminence V12 and celestion 70/80 combo. Great bass and mids from the v12 and lotsa treble from the 70/80s.

Hawkman - Wow those Bogner cabs look sweet! I'd like one of those, how much are they?

green_insomniac - I was thinking of avatar shortly after I posted. I checked out their site, sounds like they have some good deals. And I've heard some good things around here about them too.

Anyone else have any suggestions?? Someone mention in another thread about a Vox or Marshall cab.

Yeah, I'm super happy with mine. I have two of the larger closed back ones set up in stereo. They're not cheap! I think I paid $700 per cabinet (brand new) three years ago. Honestly, if you're on a budget, the Avatars seem like a good option. Quality materials and construction at a fair price.

They are nice, but the price is too much for me. Avatar might be the thing for me. Thanks again!
