[tothetop777]

Hey tone dude it sounds good, you should do a shoot out

[sfericean]

Dude...you freaking rock!....Love the cab and love the vids keep 'em coming!

[kanoacool]

Check out the worlds first stained glass backed illuminated

speaker cabinets at revAmped Design on facebook!

Glass Kits are availible for your existing cabinets!

[TommyRocket49]

Cooler than my plywood scrap creatio of 40 years ago!

[qwertywrangler]

How does it sound open?

[Adamshredsify]

that sounds great man! really cool

[iluvs2sk8]

im making a 1x6.5 cab out of an old practice amp and on the speaker it says 4ohms 10watts. When i plug an amp into it, do i set the impedance selector to 4ohms on the head? it seems like even though the ohms match that it might be too much for that tiny speaker. I dunno, i feel like this is a stupid question, sorry but im not educated in this stuff

[qwertywrangler]

@iluvs2sk8 Yes, use the 4 ohm setting.

[virgil940]

thats cool man

[HoosierLine]

Interesting concept....think what one could do with a refrigerator carton with a bunch of speakers.....double stack in a box and light weight too boot!!

[richarco]

Meh sounds a little boxy....

Hahaha I couldn't resist XD

[TheSchoolsux345]

sounds good for if you just need a quick cabinet to record with or something like if yours breaks or you leave it at practice or something. great idea!

[50cliber]

i like your subscribe amp its nice lol oh and good job with this

[levinlevinallday]

this is as ghetto as when i mounted a 12 in a 5 gallon bucket. haha bet somebody reads this and tries it. it does fit.

[waylan3]

ya its hooked up with those cabnets in the bac k ground bro

[Dreamcatcher156]

Don't mean to rain on a good idea, BUT, wouldn't this thing tend to be a fire hazard

if it wasn't wired correctly?

[megatron804]

holy shit !!!! it sounds pretty dam good,nice work bro

[akkudakkupl]

haters gonna hate :D Nice idea mate :-)

[joemarshlljmp]

I have a very expensive speaker laying around but I don't want to cut the box, any suggestions?

[adam10603]

how many watts can this thing handle ?

[barret707]

Tone king..........u god you!

[MyKeith23]

that peice of shit i bet it doesnt work in a car.

[tomrichyguitar]

@MyKeith23 xD

Blatantly don't understand what's going on.

[thunda121658]

too freakining funny!

[Hertsman50]

Sounds pretty good to me and you sound like an expert with speaker modifications. Dude can I ask a question, is there any way I can connect a marshall 1912 cab to a stereo Line 6 Spider IV 150 head. Line 6 say both 75W outputs need to be connected to 8ohm loads. Is there any way I can modify the Marshall to make it work with the Spider IV head? Thanks

[uppywards]

could you do this with a 1x21 speaker box with a 21 speaker

[ExpertOfSound]

OH - ok LOL

Now I understand.

This speaker isn't a subwoofer!

It's for a guitar XD

Right, mostly high end will be coming out of this thing, so the cardboard box will work great! :D

I WAS going to start yelling at you on the other video, but I went here and realized that this is just an easy way to hold the speaker!

I have tried this too, just to see, but mine was with a subwoofer - don't waste your time on a subwoofer box made out of cardboard.

:D thumbed up lol

[guitardict]

This is kinda ghetto no lie but absolutly brilliant. Enginuity at its best, and a great use for boxes.

[cast390]

Kinda Boxy sounding (sorry I just had to )

[benthomas52]

good luck foolin me on that one it dont sound that good at all iv been doin that sins i was a kid it ant all its cracked up to be oh and nice speekers in the back of what u made to in han that crap speeker u got me tho lol good job ;)

[realdj100]

This baby Rocks....Now you need to make 4 of them

[Ziece4]

then put them in 1 big box :o

[peto30]

what to fuck ?

[FastRedPonyCar]

@peto30 A hot chick?

[Btroisi13]

So if I got 4 of these and taped and wired them together, I could have a light and small 4x12 cab?

[Mrdudelg]

Damn... all that tone for under a buck.

[stealyourface73]

Impressive!!!

[longnamesarebetter2]

woooooooow.....

it sounds fucking good!!!

[bungmasterteddybear]

badass! lovin' it

~Bungee

[cathodic11]

look dod 250 reissue, i'm lucky i got the original

[MrCooterbruzer]

i think that amp shreds

[centralscoolfool]

song

[ace69er]

No WONDER it sounded 'BOXY'! Its mounted in a cardboard box!

That being said, it doesnt sound too bad. But it does souns fairly hollow.

Does any1 know if he ran that closed back or open backed?

[Sick1982]

There is a difference between what the mic records, and the sounds that makes it to the room. Today I finally had the chance to connect a head and not a bass amp to it, and all I could hear was some really harsh treble and the sound of someone knocking on a carton box :p Wasted effort :) I think my girlfriend was really getting nuts of the awful sound it produced :)

[IllXxXIll]

a good microphone will record the EXACT same sound that is in the room.  So maybe you had a shitty mic or bad recording software

[Petrucciisgod123]

This is straight up wrong. Most microphones aren't designed with a flat frequency response, and some of the "BEST" microphones in the world have a very skewed response. ALL recording software sounds 99% the same.

[LeadfootFlat]

@IllXxXIll even the best of mic will add its own color to the sound (many of which purposely so), along with the equipment you use to record. don't be so nieve.

[Fretbed]

Bugera!?? really...? the Marshall is nice... but I can't trust anything that Behringer makes... haha no way.

[ace69er]

Brand snob!

Bugera MUCH better now thna 2 years ago!

[RNRDOLL]

I have had the same fuckin behringer combo amp that was discontinued for 4 years..and its STILL trucking along STRONG!! So I think thats a green light for me on the 1960 because lately this one has been perking my ears up. I used to have a reissue 1959slp plexi..it was AMAZING but had to sell the bastard plus I wasnt doing as big of gigs, so it just wasnt justified to have a 100 watt tube amp without an attenuator. DEATH!!

[snap41crackle]

nice

[fezjammer]

there's my answer! it sounds a lot better than I thought it would. it mkes me reallize that overall, the material that a cabinet is made of (birch, maple, cardboard) isn't too terribly important anymore. as long as the speaker doesn't rattle to no end. I tried a speaker with no box earlier, and it sounded like poooooo!!!!!!!!!

[chainduck]

Very true...I do a lot of experimenting with cigar boxes, PVC pipe, and tin boxes...trying to get the biggest sound out of the smallest speaker. The speaker itself plays the biggest part of the "sound." Next, the volume of the enclosure and shape...then finally, the amplifier. The material seems to have the least amount of effect, although, I can see differences in the tonal "color." Birch ply is still my fave....but PVC sounds surprisingly good.

[chainduck]

I should ammend that statement about the amplifier....Obviously, the amp is the defining sound....I just meant that in the chain of how the sound is finally output, the amp is third in priority.

You can get a good sound out of a lot of really crappy speakers, if they have the right frequency response. And, some tiny specialty speakers like those used in TV's, have an amazing amount of output in the right cabinet.

[Sick1982]

w00t, you forgot to apply for a patent! I just put my Roland Cube 30X speaker in a Celestion G10 Vintage box and it still sounds as crappy as before :D

[bsabbath55]

lol thats awsome

[danpluso]

WOW! I have never seen a Marshall do that before!

[rockpetrad]

he was usin the bugera i think

[themodernguitarist]

Wow, sounds awesome. Really want to hear how your new Subscribe!! JCM800 Amplifier sounds. :D

[sk8rjj1]

i think its real awesome lol haha ( im serious)

[AcDc109]

it dont matter what cabinet. But what speaker, and what amp.

[fullofblood]

Is there any name of an amp manufacturer called "Subscribe!!"?Wow,lol!

[andreaxyz]

this bloke got the capacity to build a kick ass piece of gear.... whenr are you going to produce it tone koing???

[lmsjr]

hey andrea ... I dunno man. Thanks for the kind words though!!

[david8808black]

a1  ++++++++++++++++++++++

[HiBitDrifter]

People were going off and it does look like Hell.

Makes it funnier that it sounds good.

[tony93666]

LOL - it actually works!! I thought it would just vibrate like mad and fall over... Makes me very satisfied with my so-called "cheapy" Marshall MG412A cab. I might change the speakers, but the cab stays!

[spameister]

Dude the cabs are made of chipboard and they're poorly sealed. You'd waste your money putting new speakers in that thing

[tony93666]

keep lying to yourself

[spameister]

Umm ok yeh I'll keep lying to myself when I've owned two MGs and two AVT heads and cabs. Don't argue with fact. Your video has helpfully proven that the MG is weak-assed.

Have a nice life

[demonknight66698]

Stayed tuned next week boys and girls for your very own cardboard tube amp for under $1!!

[borded619]

nice.

[Snakebite1138]

Yikes! that thing rocks pretty hard for cardboard.

[MyFatCatIsOld]

For the 3'rd part of this series, A/B test it with a more expensive cab

[peaveypower212]

yea i would like to hear the difference good idea

[rama6maiden]

you would have to krank your bass all the way to get some serious bass out of thast box!

[LordOfThisWorld74]

Tone king. i have a serious question. is there anyway you could make a 4-12 like that??? like make four of those and wire em togather?

[lmsjr]

I guess you can take 4 of these and tape them together :-) I don't think a single box could hold up 4 speakers, so this would be the only way (4 single boxes taped together). What do you think? Thanks.

[paparazzi3p]

Go to a grocery store and ask for boxes that hold paper towels, foam plates, or napkins. Or just ask for the biggest box they can find. They'll hook you up. Those should be able to fit at least 2, or maybe 4.

[coolcustomer31]

you dont want towel or napkin boxes cause they're only meant to hold towels and napkins (weak), ask for egg boxes or something stronger (detergent boxes?)

[heyitsmekid]

@lmsjr put 8 in a box from a fridge! ohh yeahhh!

[andr123w]

@LordOfThisWorld74 you could spend the 50 bucks on a sheet of 3/4" birch ply wood and make it way more solid. I built a 6x10 using only 1 sheet of 3/4" so you should be able to get a 4x12. I know the whole card board box this is cool but you would get much nicer tone from birch and it would be much more solid.

[glassprisoner417]

the sustain and presence is unbeleiveable....BRAVO TONE KING!!

[dlowrie290]

Dude, do you have a garage full of amp heads or something? You have a new amp every other week. Anyway love the vids and keep up the good work.

[kevarm23]

he gets them for free

companies supply him because he advertises for them

[zuperbal]

Tone King - Thank you for a great video. Sorry to be a pest but that sold me after I heard the sound! Really shows how a person can be creative in these tough times. I will definitelt be building one!

Nice job!

[bleedingfly]

I remember you saying before that it also worked as an open back. That would have been nice to have heard that also. Great vid either way tho! \m/_

[Den1sVengeance]

haha sounds nice actually

[thomson125]

Cool stuff, sounds great.

[TheGamingGuitarist]

That speaker is badass for under $1! You should make more of these, sell them at affordable prices, and you would make a fortune, I guarantee it!

[theghost2987]

how much is speaker for?

[guitarnoobcake]

really nice.. you should put it on ebay, and check how much you could sell it for

[EndlessMagic]

yes,u should market those TTK.. :)

[illusionfreak]

You should do a shootout between the 1$ cab and a regular 1x12 cab.

[TheGamingGuitarist]

I second that illusionfreak.

[FilthyInsomniac]

I third the motion for a shoot out on the 1$ cab vs 1x12

[codyt5]

I fourth that lol

[GiGaMoG]

I fourth that

[tak178]

So...you should market those, I think, TTK.

[EGZMETALFRK666]

wow sound good

[guitardbucket]

Pretty cool man.
