Members slashdot Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 Im about to procure a 67' Vibrolux which was converted to a head unit. Everything is stock with the exception of upgraded electrolytics and tubes. Some background and a couple of questions. Primarily this amp is going to be used at home for practice, low volume jamming and also some small club gigging. I want the obvious clean sparkly tones from the Vibrolux name but I also want to be able to dial in some tube crunch. I have an Ibanez TS-9 w/ Robert Keely Mod Plus for this. My style is primarily a loose fusion of blues/jazz and a lot of folk/country. Questions) What cabinet configuration is recommended? 1x15, 1x12, 2x10, 2x12? What speakers do you recommended in any of the above configurations? I want to make sure all the impedances match, so what #'s am I looking for in terms of speaker RMS and ohms? I think the amp is 30 or 35 watts? I want to keep the stack looking tasty and blackface, so where can I get a blackfaced cabinet to match the head? Thanks guys!

Members Flogger59 Posted April 7, 2009 Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 Originally it was an open back 2 x 10. There won't be any Fender 2 x 10 cab available, but you could try Avatar. Load it with Jensens,or Eminence and you should be good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slashdot Posted April 7, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 7, 2009 For the purists out there; I'm probably flagelating myself asking this question but do you think I'm going to lose any of that Vibrolux charm by running this as a head unit + cab? Should I put it back in an original style combo cab? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members slashdot Posted April 8, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 8, 2009 What's a good speaker option if I want to tame a little of the extra chime in these Vibrolux? Good head room but I want to dial in some distortion a little earlier than 6 or 7 thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
