Most people don’t have a lot of speakers to swap in and out so don’t notice it, or they use combo amps, or they just leave an amp hooked up to the same speakers. If you switch between an open-back 1x12 and a closed-back 4x12 stack with completely different speakers, the difference is HUGE.
- TylerE 6y agoFor sure. I run a pure digital modeling rig that can emulate a range of speakers. The difference between a sim of say, Greenbacks or Creambacks and an Alnico Jensen is night and day.
- taylodl 6y agoWhat digital modeling rig do you use?
- jolux 6y agoThat's a good point, I've only ever used small 1x10 and 1x12 combos (Fenders). I've wanted to try a 4x12 Marshall stack for a while but have yet to find the opportunity.
- klodolph 6y agoIf you're ever tempted to buy a 4x12, you may want to give the 2x12 format a shot first. It's a lot easier to deal with. I got a 2x12 from Avatar and I'm super happy with it.
