Best speaker cabinet for the price
I have to admit that I had doubts, but this is one of the best sounding cabinets I have ever owned. It is dead simple and easy to use. However, I had problems with the shipping as it was fairly expensive and UPS lost it, so it took me almost a month to get my package instead of 5 days. Also, the box was a little beaten and there were a couple of pucks in the corners of the cab once I opened the box. Nothing major, but I was expecting that it would arrive in better condition, considering the price of the delivery. All things considered, the amp sounds great and it's easy to use. I am satisfied with my purchase as it was very cheap for the quality, but I didn't really have a good experience with the delivery service. However, the salespeople at Thomann were very helpful and they solved the problem in a short time.

Solid and affordable
I found this cabinet to be quite ideal. I play it with a jcm800 and it has delivered the sound particularly well. The Celestion vintage 30 speakers are capable of providing literally any style of music. It's very reasonable price makes this a great choice of cabinet as apposed to a Marshall when looking for your first stack. A great buy!

Great value for money
First off, for the money, it's great value. 4 Celestion V30 speakers will cost more than the cost of this cab, so it's worth that just for the speakers alone.
It's the smallest 4x12 cab I've ever purchased and that does impact the sound. It's the brightest and least bassiest 4x12 cab I've heard. A bit of EQ tweaking can sort that out, so it's not really a pro or con. The small form factor (by 4x12 standards!) is handy if you want to transport in smaller vehicles.
On the customisation side of things, mine was a very tricky to get the back off. The back was really jammed in tight and it took a look of prying, all around the edges, and I had to take a side handle off to push from the inside to finally unjar it. It almost felt like it was glued in, but it wasn't.
If you do take the back off, be very careful. It's also best to take the jack plate off. It looks like an accountant decided how long the wire should be and not the person building it! It's very easy to pull the back off and yank the connections off, as they are very short wires, in comparison to a Marshall cab where you have several more inches of wire. Inside, the speakers are bolted in, instead of being just screwed, which a lot of people consider a good thing.
Mine was delivered to the UK and, unfortunately, suffered a bit off damage in transit. I decided to take a partial refund, as it took a couple of whacks and tore the tolex in a couple of spots. It looked more like B-stock, when it arrived.
In case anyone is wondering, the cab is built with 4 x 16 ohm speakers.
All in all, I'm happy with it.

Nice cabinet
I use this mainly in the rehearsal space paired with a Bugera 333 XL. The cabinet and speakers does it´s job very well! This is a very good cabinet for the price and I would really recommend it for anyone on a budget.
