I love playing guitar with a full on Marshall 100W stack but it is a bit big. I wanted the ability to run high powered amp heads but into smaller cabinets. An interesting solution to this problem has been made by Barefaced Audio with their vented diffuser cabinets “vented diffuser cabinets”.
Since the construction is detailed on their webpage, I though it would be fun to have a go at making my own version
The cabinet is made from 18mm plywood with box joints. for strength
The speaker is a new “Celestion G12H-150 Redback”. Chosen for its high power handling characteristics and favourable reviews.
The grill cloth is quite saggy. I will fix this one day but it doesn’t bother me enough to dismantle the whole cabinet.
It sounds quite good. It certainly doesn’t sound like a small cabinet and I use it quite a lot. I would love to compare it one day to the real version
