Cabinet upgrade


I play trough a Trace Elliot 2x12" 130w stereo combo amp, wich is very, very good for my needs. The output gives the opportunity to add a cabinet.
The question is: will adding a 4x12" cabinet make the overall tone better, I mean more low frequencies and better sound definition?
I need more "body" for my sound!

Re: Cabinet upgrade


It will give you more "spread". Better is subjective

Re: Cabinet upgrade


Adding another 2x12 to match the combo will give a bit more spread to the sound without making much difference to the tone.

If you had a head, not a combo, a 2x12 will sound different to a 4x12. The 4x12 cabinet will be bigger and bassier with more thump than a 2x12.
