OK. I want new cabs that are relatively small, lightweight, decent sounding, with 8" drivers. The only option I found is the Warwick WCA LT cabs (not the Eminence one, though). They fit in my small car, in my small budget.
I would like to hear some opinions about it. Should you have any, as I never saw anyone with those cabs, and only played the Eminence loaded ones in Markneukirchen.
I can get a 4x8 + 1x12 for less than 700€, which is good for me. Can't really afford more expensive - unless I sell my Henry the 8x8, which I will not sell. Because, you know, it's MY cab. Plus should I need to play a larger venue, I can put the 4x8 on top and play a 12x8, which should be pretty good.
Anyway : may head is an SWR 550xwhich gives 550W at 4Ohms (so I'm ok with the two Warwick Cabs that are 8 Ohms and 300 / 400W)
I play Heavy Metal Funk, Hard Disco and Thrash Pop on 5 strings.
My curent rig is the 550X with the SWR Workingman4x10 (loud enough, great sound, but too heavy); or with the 8x8 (Very loud enough, Fantastic définition, but even heavier and larger). Sometimes I play both, and I usually destroy little mammals in a 5m radius.
The WCA seems pretty good, not too expensive, easy to load/unload.
Thoughts, peeps ?
