Looking Great! Can't wait to hear some demo's over the coming weeks as they roll out.
 
The amplifier design is a licensed product. B-52 also licenses the amplifier design. After trying many designs I liked this one the best. Cabs are made Painted and grill clothed right in our shop. As with all our cabs, they are made with baltic birch. No cheap wood or plastic will do if you want the punch. Hope that clears things up.

Exact same electronic specifications and speaker/drivers as B52 ?

The Guitar Product Elf and Demonstrator for Matrix Amplification! Lightningboy, dropped this info on the FAS board:

"Looks very similar to this (apart from the grill obviously). Maybe using the same amp block in the rear?"

I hope the 2 companies still drink tea together.

Could you confirm Dave ?
 
The amp block is the same licensed amp b52 uses. The cab is a different and tuned a bit different and the main driver is a different model also. So to conclude they are different and sound different because of these changes.

Should be available any day now. 500 watts celestial drivers. Punchy and not to bright like some full range cabs. They have a real Knock to them like a guitar cab would.

Any update on a release date?
 
We have 20 sets done waiting on the drivers for them. Should be less then a week.

I want 2 please !!! :thumbsup:
 
I would love to see coaxial drivers in the future. It would be nice to have 2 on the same cabinet to run them in stereo, but the price would go up considerably because you'll need 4 power amps and good coaxial speakers can be pricy.
