Removing head from a combo for separate use.
Considering options for a spare amp which I could keep (well hidden) in my car, I've stumbled upon the idea of removing the head section from a cheap combo, building some casing around it and using it separately. I can't think of any issues which would arise from this. Are there any?
Edit: I'm imagining a combo with a jack which plugs in for the speaker, but one that's hard wired in would still be usable with a bit of work, I would think.
I modified an Ashdown combo head to make it rack-mountable. I purchased it in a homemade wooden casing which was crap!
10 mins with an angle grinder, another 10 with a dremel de-burring the cuts. 4 holes drilled in the front.
I used the offcut pieces of the casing to add some strength across the top using the existing holes where it mounted to the combo, otherwise it flexed quite a bit.
