Aaugh god... I think I'm gonna be sick...
Ok, so I think to myself what would go better with my DR than a standard recto cab, right? I mean, they were made for each other, right? So I go to Guitar Center, plop down my $960 (with tax) and take my recto cab home like a proud daddy coming home from the hospital.
I plug it in, crank my DR up to about noon with my usual settings and what do I get? FARTING SPEAKERS!!!!! The **** speakers are shaking like it's a freaking earth quake! It pains me to say this, but **** - my old Peavey 412MS with the Sheffield 1290s spanks the hell out of this cab! When I had my old Peavey cab cranked and I hit a nice chunky muted cord I could feel it thud through my chest like I just got hit by a boxer. With this cab all I get is a juicy fart. When I turn down the bass the farts go away, but it leaves me sounding thin and weak.
Ok, since I already threw my money down the drain, is there any hope for this cab? Is the cab the issue or is it the speakers? Should I swap the V30s for G12T-75s? I like a nice chunky, tight, thick sound. Some people suggested putting polyfill in the cab. Anybody done this? Could it be that the speakers need to be broken in? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
