For a minute, way back when, I [i]nearly[/i] ordered 2 x Big Ones to put under the Boogie Can you even imagine? The only thing that stopped me was lack of storage space! JTB[/quote] I keep looking at the fact that my Fafner is capable 2ohm...so that is 3 big ones or 4 compacts Then I realise one would be more than enough and I am being ridiculous.

alexclaber Posted June 23, 2009 Author Share Posted June 23, 2009 Looks like we'll have some more Compacts sorted by the end of the week so that'll finally get us caught up with the waiting list and leave a few remaining in stock! The near mythical Vintages will be ready next week, what a wait... Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For about the fifth time in as many months, I've had a special moment in my pants regarding the impending Vintage.

Sit on the floor really close to one of your vintageised Compacts and imagine the badge looking half as big. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I prefer how the Compact looks in its standard form, due to its symmetry and the imposing speaker. The Big One does look v nice vintageised though.

Had a panic attack that you were going to say there'd be no more Compacts before October. Edit: Incidently, I prefer the look of the standard Compacts over the Vintage too.

Musicman20 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 [quote name='alexclaber' post='509083' date='Jun 9 2009, 02:51 PM']A vertically aligned ported 2x12" with same external dimension as the Compact apart from an inch or so of extra height, port up the side rather than along the bottom as with my other cabs. Drivers positioned asymmetrically for better response. Similar sensitivity in the lows to the Compact (due to box size) but more sensitivity in midrange. Will be very loud indeed. Very very very loud. Not as fat and smooth as the Compact, more angry. Alex[/quote] Any news on this cab? Im interested! A lot!
