[Harp-L] Weber 8a150



What is you aim with this new cab?  Could this be accomplished by something simpler like replacing the combo speaker. 

The VHT chassis attaches to the cab with screws on the top, sides and back.  The chassis is not strong enough to be  held by the top fasteners alone so some additional support will need to be  done with a different cab. 

Two four ohm speakers wired in series will work with the 8 ohm speaker tap.

> Hi gang! ok so here is my new plan or idea I should say.. I am thinking about buying a VHT Special 6 head and having a 2x8 combo cab made (that I will put the VHT brain into) I already have a Weber (4ohm) 8A125 and looking at getting a 8A150 to go in the with it. I know this might sound like a crazy idea, but thats why we ask questions. For the question.. what do you guys think of mixing a 8A125 and 8A150 (both being 4ohms) with the VHT S6 head?
