I hope I don't sound rude, but why?
I've got a 2x12, and that with my 60 watt amp is still total overkill.
Then again, It's fucking awesome.
Hmm...

im seeing alot of em come out now which is cool
metric has 2
nathan from wavves has one
black keys have one
i just think an ac30 handwired with a fender tube reverb tank on top through the massive cab would pair really well
bright clang from the ac30 with the low end and push from the massive cab with the tube reverb for some massive wetness
sexy

Aguilar makes a tall 4x12. I've been eyeing them for a while.
I think Mesa does, as well.

Though you live outside the states, Emperor is a really great option. Also, I'm kinda tired of hearing the question "why?" when someone asks about something like this.

Seriously. Why the hell not?!
I want an oversized 2x12 on top of my 15. Or a 6x10 with matching 2x15. One of those 2x15+2x12 cabs would be excellent as well.

My brain was about to explode when I was trying to comprehend this. I liked it!

I always wanted to do a mini-fullstack which would include a 4x10 stacked on top of a 2x12. Best of both worlds!
Edit: Oh, and I have a Mesa 2x15 that needs new speakers. If someone wants to drive to Nashville they can have it for $100. haha.

Edit x2: I take that back. I may just want to keep it. What would be some good speakers to put in that sucker? This is unfamiliar territory for me.

Sounds wild, try it. I think Lopo does whatever you asked, but you stuff it. Are you a bass player? My friend has a 6x10 Bergantino and it's great!

Low Down Sound made this cab. It cost like $600 and weighs 79 pounds. IT FUCKING HURTS MY EARDRUMS AND I LOVE IT.
