Nameofsound 2x12 Black Warrior Vertical

I tried Marshall (zero), Mesa (very good), Engl (very good), Orange (medium) and the NOS and the best I've had! It was worth the Mesa and Engl while being less expensive.

It has a great look, is very well built with top quality gear, there are removable casters which is rare enough to be underlined.
The projection of the sound is excellent. What a good idea HP inclined and vertical format is really ideal. I personally have put a V30 G12K100 down and up and it does it well for metal, a very good bass, sweet potato and treble remains not in socks.

Q / P ratio very good, top quality, made in France ... I'll keep the long one.

I remake this choice without hesitation!

Cabinet "made in France", of good quality, with removable wheels, measuring 50x38x75 ... 82 counting wheels! I have not weighed, but it is not so heavy that it (33 kgs V30 from OUR site!) ... In any case, it is lighter than my ex ENGL 2x12 H!
It is 8 ohms mono (120w) and 16 ohms stereo (2x60W).

The facade of the beast is tilted for better sound projection, and ... it's true!

I have this cabinet for 1 1/2 years, after having exchanged against a 1x12 brand.
I have a second with a grill cloth and various HP ... even for home use, 2 2x12 cabs in stereo, this is really excellent! I said that I can play at the correct volume, not only at low volume!

It is mounted in the following manner: a Eminence Governor down, Eminence Private Jack and a top.
The mix of the two gives a rich enough overall. The Governor is responsible enough in low but clear and crisp I mean, and the highs are quite right! Perfect for the distortion, while the Private Jack sounds better to spring clean ... Anyway! Not easy to explain anyway, I apologize, but the mix of the two suits me perfectly, and that is the main!

I tried all sorts of this amp NOS (heads or racks), everything is fine stood. No crachotis of drooling or other discomforts ... always sound rich, full and musical! At home, I often play with a JMP1 + Velocity 120 (with delay & chorus) on my 2 2x12 ... it's perfect!

I owned an ENGL 2x12 and 2x12 Randall, all horizontal 2! Then exceed the OUR is Randall (even though it was a very good aesthetic finish!), And I would say the same as ENGL ...
So, NOS is not particularly superior to high-end Cabs I've heard or try to right to left (VHT, Soldano, Mesa, Bogner or Marshall for example), but it is made in France by a passionate This ... is what mattered to me in the balance!
What I like least about this "vertical", my head is that V3 does not arise because it meets perfectly, but hey, there's no comparison between a 2x12 vertical and one horizontal projection noise level medium distance! Perhaps in the near future I will trade against the 2x12 XL brand!

Hope this helps ... I salute you (as they say "the other"!)

I acquired the cabinet in May 2004, but I do not post that now is an APRS m'tre ide prcise capacity of beast.
As you can see, it's a 2x12 vertical cabinet, whose width dimensions are those of an SKB rack. But Grard NOS offers several formats, and just visit their site for more information. In addition, you may customize the machine, just ask
I play a G-Force Triax + + Peavey Classic 50/50 ... I had several earlier speakers: a Marshall 1960A, 2 1x12 EV, a Marshall 8412. Nothing terrible but hey, I sound right to me trs prs just met. For transport reasons, I wanted to go smaller than a 4x12, but I did not want satellite either, was a 2x12.
I have heard of these speakers even here. As a j'tais DCID Engl 2x12 cabinet, I have all of the same emailed Grard NOS for information on pricing, options etc ... it took me some time to be convinced, the main argument with t: "If the sound does not dish you, you send it to me and I will repay."
So, I opt for a Warrior with Celestion V30 Vertical Mount, Stereo 2x16 ohm / 8 ohm mono. Press the speaker to try playing, I asked him Monday if one can do for me on Saturday (which I had a concert date). Well, he did! Unfortunately Saturday fri silent and I got it after the weekend. I add that I even sent the package to receive my chque to be in dlais. It was not beautiful?
I had to wait until now to accumulate enough live performances and give me cold.
It's simple, I redcouvert the Triaxis, my guitar, my multi-effects! The sounds are much more prcis, the grain of each channel of the TA is beautiful and totally stands out from others. The transparency of its effect is such that I can resume my rglages (reverb, chorus, etc ...). I even had to lower the volume by half. In fact, I always play the same volume, both in RPET 'or in concert, and connecting the NOS, has struck at least two times stronger! I never understood why, but it is impressive. The PM is serious trs trs prcis spite of my red Lace Sensor Start Ultra that are plutt drafts.
The must is the diffusion: in fact, HP is tilted up, and even without the surlever, I get along well as trs back 50 cm from the speaker (I'm 1m83 and I like shoes with thick soles: P). I got on the same playing ct baffle. Fawn not perfect, sr, but be aware that with my 8412 I heard absolutely nothing in the two situations Previous. Trs apprciable in bars and small scnes.
Another good point, contact with Grard: Has any softphone and DCID by mail, and he does trs available. And the little + that are still fun (the French touch?): He sent me pictures of the cabinet during its construction when he does finally before I post it, then one month later he m ' sent towards supplmentaires better quality than the original, and a T-shirt bearing the image of the brand. Lovely touch ...
So for those planning to switch cabinet, take a look at our: a strong and growing almost as heavy as a 4x12, one in the trs prcis V30 (was a little sore beginners to the ego when we play a bit messy), the manufacturing quality is good trs, finishing as (super tough Tolex trs, diffrent radically from that of Marshall). I like her look plain no frills, Reduces clutter, but I like the wheels a little less I find a bit small for the 32 kg bb. I will turn may be later, can be ...
That's it!

I use this cabinet in September 2005.
I test with the following configurations of HP:
Classic V30 + lead, + G12H30 V30, V30 + G12H100, G12H30 Classic + lead + and G12H30 G12H100
Finally, my choice was stopped the following configuration: V30 G12H30/G12H100 top and bottom.
The V30 allows for a clear sound quality and G12H * adds punch to saturation (the v30 too poor as my gotl above)

Most
<ul> - A perfect finish! (Tolex extremely well painted everything is possible (even the indoor!), Wood pais ...)
- A clear and his prcis no "cracking" is heard.
- Cables good quality welded directly to HPs without contacts intermdiaires Stereo mode and through the contacts of one of the jack in mono.
- Retractable wheels
- A reasonable weight. </ul> The - (small -...)
<ul> - We have a little trouble dplacer the baffle when he has a little weight on it (60kg) ... may be the wheels ...
- Jack of quality standard and no more.
</ul>
Anyway ... trs trs a good speaker, and even some of APRS, better than the VHT! even when!
