I remember Univox and various other companies had a couple 4x10 or 4x12's that were columned like that. Always wondered what they sound like.

I used to have some traynor 4X12 like this

but they weren't very loud and could only handle about 50watts.
I sold them after I blew a speaker not running them very hard.
this thread makes me feel warm inside.
a pair of 4X15 cabs would be such an awesome score. I'll have sweet dreams tonight.
or a full stack of
Mark Percy 4X15 cabs?

yes I photoshoped
that

One of the best bands i've seen live. And a BIG reason I bought my Emperor.

I hate myself for passing on a 4x12 and 2x15 relatively local
While we're talking about Emperors, here's mine
Got it second hand in a trade, thought it was a good deal at the time but I ended up taking a decent loss (wish they listed the prices on the site

)
Oh well!
old setup with bassman:

then moved on to the Morgan:

now it just acts as an extension cabinet for when I want my tiny amps to sound huge:
