  • Best Peavey 4x12 cab?

    My brother has been running his Peavey VTX Heritage head through a cheap Sonic 4x12 for the past year, with a blown speaker and ripped up carpet covering. I've got a couple of Peavey 2x12 cabs that I'm pretty happy with, but he wants to stick with a 4x12, and I'm not really sure if there's much difference between their various cabs. Anyone familiar with the current line?

    4x12 cabs usually have more bass response from what I've seen, while 2x12 cabs have more presence. However, if he's happy with a 4x12, Peavey has an old cabinet that Marshall sued them over which is loaded with Celestions and built pretty much like a Marshall cab (hence the lawsuit).
    Haven't checked out their recent cabs, though. Personally I'd recommend a Carvin with British 12s in it.

        Ahhh... another Heritage owner. I have had mine since 1986 and it still plays like it did the day I got it.....

          Yup, the Butcher/VTM cabinets with the Celestion G12K85s. Heavy for sure, but you'd be hard pressed to find a better cab.

            Peavey cabs?
            I have heard the new Triple X cabs sound good.
            Also XXL.
            I have been thinking of getting one of these to use it with my JSX I am getting soon.
            I have a 5150 cab and have tried with many amps but I don't like it so it ended up as a fax machine stand at my work for last 2years [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
