Sounds great, crazy cheap for what you get.

I really wanted to get a Celestion V30 speaker but every cab cost a ton of money. This had 2 of them for a great price, even with shipping to the US.

Fantastic cab

I’ve had this cabinet for a good few years and it hasn’t let me down. I’ve gigged with it and recorded with it. Mine arrived with a dent in the wood which must’ve been made during shipping. I personally don’t mind as this is purely cosmetic.

Half the price of Marshall

Better speakers half the price of a Marshall no brainer can't compare to anything in United States. No Brad just back

Beefy sound!

I purchased this cabinet for playing heavy metal through it. This cabinet delivered just as I had hoped. The tones I'm able to achieve with this cabinet have made me extremely happy.

Best bang for anyone's hard earned bucks!

I bought this cabinet for my Marshall DSL 40C amp and it did not and has not disappointed. I have played live with this cab all year round and its been a work beast! Great sounding, not no heavy. A great addition to the struggling musician looking for great gear at a reasonable price. Highly Recommended.

Looks and sounds great

Can't complain at all. V30's are great speakers for just about anything, and the cab is really solid, and as everyone raves about, it's stupidly cheap.

I bought this early summer 2022, gigged it for a year and sold it to a friend as I wanted to downsize - nothing wrong with the sound or build quality at all.

I've wound up opting for the Line6 HX Stomp route into an active PA speaker for monitoring, then taking a line out to the FOH which is a much more elegant solution for smaller gigs. If you're playing bigger spaces, or just desperately want to stick to real amps, this is a big win.

One of the best for the price!!

Before i went all digital i ended up using all my heads with this cabinet...i've been comparing it with other celestion equipped cabinets (know what i mean) and the difference in the sound quality were not that important so that i had to change cabinet.In conclusion sometimes you can be amazed from the little candyes the market offers even in a low range of price.

Disappointed - limitations if you want to change speakers-not front loaded.

The cabinet looks nice and it's well built but it has some limitations.

Unboxing: the cabinet arrived in a box that was way larger than the cabinet and without proper filling/porotection. The outer box was damaged but the cabinet was fine.

The celestion V30 made in china have some sonic difference from the original V30 they tend to be a bit too bright, almost harsh. I used it with an Origin 20 and even though I liked the distorted tones I felt that the clean tones could have been a bit warmer.

I decided then to swap the speakers and I ordered a couple of Greenbacks. I tried to remove the front panel and despite what you might see online DON'T do it. The front panel is non removable: I ended up damaging it and then I tried to open the back panel to replace the speakers. I am still in the process and very frustrated. Don't buy it if you believe you would like to change the speakers... go for a model which comes already with greenbacks on it.

I was very disappointed because I bought this cabinet over Christmas and the cabinet with greenbacks was only launched in January: very weird timing for a product launch... and I would have gone straight for that option if that would have been available.

Suggestion for a product improvement: make it easy for players to swap speakers... you might have a nice and affordable platform to experiment with new sound texture without breaking the bank.

Amazing Harley Benton Cabinet

While I'm not famous, I do work hard for my demanding clients and boy did this cabinet save my butt. Always find it amazing when customers have unique demands ... not just a speaker request but some have demanded particular wood for the cabinet. This 2x12 is a killer bang for the money!

Sturdy and sounds great!

I purchased this cab 4 years ago. Until now it sounds great and you can split the 2 speakers into 2 amps. Something that other manufacturers don’t do (not all but some) for the same cab but cost 3 times more than this one.

Perfect Cab

I have two of these and no interest in trading them for anything else any time soon. Loaded with V30s, they sound great and are built sturdy. Great value, couldn't ask for better for the price. Have been gigged countless times and recorded through, never failed, nobody has ever complained. Recommended.
