bubinga5 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 (edited) Ok so a quick of question. I have a Genz Shuttle 6.2 and a Genz 210 cab. obviously I have a 600w amp going into a 300w 8ohm cab. How will I know when I'm getting to the cabs limits.? Too be honest I've turned the amp up and the cab doesnt seem to be struggling. Doesn't seem to get that bass heavy or loud either.? But of course I don't want push it too much. Edited March 22, 2018 by bubinga5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BreadBin Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Into 8 Ohms your amp will deliver 375 watts so not quite as bad as you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highfox Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Those Genz cabs can take a lot! The 4 ohm Genz Neo 212 I have just soaks it all up.. goes louder than I dare crank it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delberthot Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 It's been a while but didn't the Shuttles have something in them that filtered out some of the lows to the cabs to make the cabs seem better than they were?. It's been a while so it may not even be Genz gear but I do remember something about a certain amp doing something to flatter the cabs.

I seem to remember something like that as well, but wasn't it related to most class D heads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard it mentioned many times over the years, but a quantitive explanation would be most useful. What does it sound like, considering everyone's farts quite different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
