[QUOTE="3 Mile Stone, post: 11450, member: 259"] I think we could all agree that ... 4X12 cabs look and sound great and your amp always looks way better sitting on top of them! :lol: But, if the question is "do we really need more than a 1X12?" and I think the answer is no, probably not. The microphone cannot tell the difference a half inch away from your speaker whether there are none or 3 others surrounding it. It all depends on the band and situation. If I were still playing the heavey stuff some of you guys are playing, yes I need more because i NEED to look the part and be part of the band. We all will not agree on this one for sure. I just care about tone the greyer my hair gets, so EFF it! :lol: I punished my ears and back for too many years with 4X12's. No more. BUT, they look so good at one point I considered getting one and gutting it. Then pull the back off and angle a Marshall 2X12 up like a monitor so it would look normal from the front but really it's a 2X12 slant monitor. Would that not be cool? [/QUOTE]
