Wood Cabinet Guitar Amplifiers

I use it for guitar amplifiers and home appliances - have been working great.

Using it for guitar but appears to suit small amplifiers well.

Worth having, especially if you have a wood floor or a glass cabinet.

I Ordered the 120L Ruggard Cabinet. It came in a box framed in wood for support. Inside the box the cabinet was packaged further for added protection. Everything came out together except the Handel needed to be put in with a Phillips head screwdriver. The cabinet fits my complete cinema rigs along with lens, cameras, batteries, and stabilizers. It also looks great. It was a great deal on sale, thank you B&H.

I bought to of these to run as a stereo pair for guitar amplifiers in a live environment. They are terrific! They handle whatever two 100 watt amps can throw at them and do not color the sound in any sort of negative manner. They definitely let the amps tone shine right through. I went from two classic Sm57s to these and I just notice more clarity and detail than I did with the 57s. Mic placement is a breeze. I spent all of 5 minutes with a pre-recorded loop figuring out the most natural sound and its very easy to find the large sweetspot with these mics. Again, the 57 does not have a huge sweet spot.

Since obtaining this microphone, I have used it to mic up two different guitar amplifiers to good effect. Overall, the sound is warm and the bass response becomes more pronounced the closer it is placed to the grille cloth. Positioning the mic around six inches away produces a more balanced and useable sound IMHO. I have yet to try this mic with a Cloudlifter, which I believe should, when used in conjunction with the Fat Head II, yield a better, hotter signal.

I use the surge protector to power my guitar amplifiers and other accessories in my home recording studio. The long power cord affords me the ability to move the surge protector around the room without hassle. Lots of outlets and slim profile. Also a major plus is the low profile/right angle plug which fits flat against the wall allowing furniture to be pushed closer to the wall.

I installed this into the A/V cabinet in my RV (2008 Tiffin Phaeton) when I upgraded the receiver/amp and was pretty sure I was going to have some heat issues. I made myself a template out of MDF for the fan unit (using the thin plastic sizing template they include), since I couldn't take the cabinet side off to rough it in by hand on the bench. So I needed to clamp it up, auger out a starter hole, then just rout it out (in a few passes). It runs very quietly, even at full speed (which it doesn't typically need to do, I just turned the preferred temp way down to see what it sounded like) I will say -- my package was missing the little wood screws for the controller unit. I just used the included machine screws/nuts instead, but would have preferred the wood screws for that. Overall, I like the thing too much to knock off a star for that, though. I'm sure if called them they'd have sent them.

The cabinet came quickly, and was packaged well, with a wood frame built over the box. I had been concerned from other reviews about the risk of shipping damage, but whether the frame around it, or the quality packing in the box, there was no damage to the cabinet at all. It was quickly set up and the dual zone have been helpful, as I am using it to store both Camera equipment, as well as a few rare books i want to keep safe!

Have always used SM 57s for guitar cabinet microphones but never felt they were all that great and accepted that I would loose some tone. Not so with the e609. It sounds much better and the flat design is great! Just hang it over the can right in the center of a speaker! It handles high volume no problem. This mic gives the FOH mix more of what you want!
