Vitavox Thunderbolt was a single 15" cabinet and never had barn doors fitted.

Vitavox produced a 2x15 RCA/Westrex type bin. In the seventies I saw some being used in a rehearsal studio in NW London being used by Geordie. They weren't 6 x4 though probably 6x3x3.

For sidefills, can we have two enormous things of a type that might be venerated as Gods by the inhabitants of Easter Island, capable of reaching volumes that would make Beelzebub soil his pants.

Was this mate of yours a guy called Andy Gilson from Wolverhampton as he used to hire out a system almost identical to what you are describing ? Edited by Robbo - 27 March 2012 at 2:08pm |
