the only reason i suggested JBL, after Steve also was talking about the JBL=

Got to agree about the harshness of the piezos, The are awfully screachie, =
but I have seen some of the younger players go for that kind of a sound. (I=
t sure aint for me)=20

Firstly, like I said, I would NEVER put any kind of a HF driver in my bass =
amp, but if you do and use a compression driver you have to put in a crosso=
ver, and at 300W that is not an inexpensive item in itself. Then a good com=
pression driver is also rather costly.=20

Now, that said, just for kicks I found this=C2=A0on the GC website.=C2=A0=20

OH,,,,.Why would you spend $600 for=C2=A0 JBLs or Beynas=C2=A0 when you can=

that work just as good ???=20

if your going to add a tweeter to a cabinet.. don't use piezo, they sound c=

s.=C2=A0 I also recommend what steve said, Use good drivers like JBL, ALTEC=

Hey Bass Bro,=20

I am an old 2-15" Dual Showman / Kustom (orginal)=C2=A0/ Traynor / Sunn =C2=
=A0type guy=C2=A0so I guess I'm the wrong guy to ask about cabs with HF dri=
vers, but check out the new Kustom stuff. It seems priced right, =C2=A0=C2=
=A0and then there is always good ol eBbay.=20

I picked up a couple of JBL M-151s on eBay=C2=A0 (one at a time) that I'm p=
utting into=C2=A0a spair old Kustom Tuck-N-Roll cab that i have . I don't h=
ave $200 in the pair including shipping. They are like D140fs on steroids.=
=C2=A0=C2=A0Thease bad boys can easily put out over 130db sound pressure at=
 10' away with less than 100 watts driving them. (That will actually shake =
bear glasses off a table!) I don't ever play that loud but it's nice to kno=
w you have the gas to make it happen if you want.=20

The thing is if you want highs that set up is from Kanarsy. Although you co=
uld add a couple of 150W piezo horns to it. IPersonally I hate any kind of =
HF driver on a BASS amp but if you can take the harshness that could be a c=
heep way to make it happen.=20

Like I said, though. I am an old BASS player and I leave the treble to the =
other instruments.=20

If I see anything on Crag's list or anyone arond here with a cab that fits =
your specs I'll let you know.=20
