Title: 3rd Power Amplification
Post by: Volume on February 02, 2011, 03:43:35 AM
So who's going to get one of these and write a review?

INNOVATIONS IN CABINET DESIGN
By eliminating the "beaming" and comb-filtering of a typical cabinet, the HLH 312 cabinet provides an addictive point-source quality. When stacking three (3) 312 cabinets together, you obtain the holy-grail of WET/DRY/WET sound in the same space as two conventional cabinets. Walk around the entire performance area and experience your sound like you've never heard before: Gone are the comb-filtering lobes that muddy your sound. Gone are the harsh "beams" of sound associated with typical rectangular cabinets. This is not hype, you will be amazed and left shaking your head while proclaiming, "How did you do that? This is amazing!"

If I bought one of those I'd have to rock a piano-key necktie.

I saw these in Premier Guitar Mag last year.  I remember that they were really pricey.

Where would you put the amp if you only had one cab? I wonder what impedences the speakers and cabs are...3 makes the math a little screwy.

The amp should be triangular so as to complete the pyramid.

I think I remember the head alone clocking in at the $2,000 range.  That's a grip for 100 Watts.

Choves for the win.
I wonder if the non-triangle head shape fucks with severe OCD cases. "God damn it!!! Kill it with fire!!"

Did anyone listen to the sound file? The guitar sounds okay, but the music is just embarrassing.

I would totally use that amp - while playing this guitar, while wearing this robe, while seated in this chair:
