I haven't forgotten about this.
Just had a lot on my plate.

We are looking at $595 empty.

I will try to get some different speaker options tomorrow when I am back in my office.

when you get a moment, can we get some dimentions/specs on the bass cabs? Maybe a pic or two of the prototype?

We had lots of discussions with our engineering friends at Eminence and tossed around various ideas.

If we proceed, we will duplicate as closely as possible my 1971 SE2150.

Unless we can work out better packaging/handling between my cab guy and me, we may have to pass on the 2x15.

Keep your eyes out for a couple of HT4121 4x12 cabs we are going to have to blow out because they damaged the vynide.......... :evil: :evil:

Maybe small refrigerator boxes would work?

Anyway, I hope it can work out, but thanks for everything you guys have undertaken.

The problem is that as the weight and size go up, the shipping companies TLC goes down -- exponentially. :( :evil:

the only way one might be able to ship something of that size & weight SOMEWHAT safely would be via truckline/freight carrier. problem with that is you have to have someone wrap/secure the cab to a pallet, fork lift it onto a truck, and when it gets to its destination the consignee will either need to unload it with a fork or lift-gate at the destination OR go to the shipping company's dock and pick it up which can be a real pain sometimes. and da freight cost goes ^^^^^

now tell me more about those 4x12 blem's doc :twisted:
