Best cab ever!

    hi

    i sold my Kemper nonpowered cabinet because it sounded too boxy and thin.

    I bought a Harley Benton 2x12 Vertical with V30 Celestions for 290 €, sold the speakers for good money and replaced them with 2 Kemper Kones.

    Now i got the sound i was looking forever.

    Sounds like day and night compared to the Kemper 1x12 cab.

    Mariosoldano, thanks for that tip.

    I have one Kemper Kone in a Palmer 1x12 cabinet and like that sound, but one Kone only sure is not enough to handle the output of the powered Kemper.

    So I bought two more Kones and replaced the speakers in a 2x12 box I built myself years ago. I hoped that would even sound better but was completely disappointed.

    Then I saw your post and thought: Why not try it? Unfortunately Thomann still seems not to have the unloaded cab in stock for the next months, so I decided to follow your example, buy the cheapest cab option with V30 and sell the speakers separately. Sadly I couldn't sell them V30s for really good money, but still ok. And the cab alone is really worth it. This Harley Benton vertical with two Kemper Kones gives me exactly the sound I was looking for and I hope the two speakers are enough to handle the power amp of the lunchbox on live gigs where we have to play without FOH.

    Thanks again
