I've gotta say that I'm not really impressed with the Thiele cab so far.
When I got it from Joey, he told me that I would probably need to turn the treble down on my amp when I'm using it.
I find that the exact opposite is true. It seems to take all of the sparkle out of the amp.
I'm using it with a DC-3 combo that has an English made Celestion Vintage 30 in it. The cabinet has an EV in it.
I've been using it for about an hour and am thoroughly unimpressed so far. I've tried everything with the EQ and the Graphic EQ on the amp and nothing seems to liven it up. I've adjusted the Presence and Gain as well.
I am no stranger to Mesa amps, but have never used this particular extension cab.
I should also mention that it is a hardwood cab, I think the wood is Paduak, but am not sure. It's dark with pronounced grains.
Does anybody have any advice? We play mostly classic rock with some newer blues like Jonny Lang & KWS.
So far, the amp sounds stellar without the Thiele cab, so I'm thinking about slapping one of my C-90's or a Mojotone in it to see what that might do.
What do you guys think?????
