Re: Hylight Hiwatt Fanes VS Sound City Fanes

FWIW, I think the SC cab I have sounds a lot like the herringbone grille cloth Hiwatt cabs Townshend used at the Rock 'n' Roll Circus. In that recording, he has a particularly sizzling sound very reminiscent of my cab. Live at Leeds sounds a little more rounded, but I don't know if that is due to the room, the recording, the mixing/EQ or other factors (like different speakers).
