Marshall Speaker Cabinets
Marshall is the only choice for serious musicians. Nothing compares to Marshall cabinets in terms of awesome tone and projection, both visually and aurally.
Great sound and looks however are not everything. Many years of experience mean that Marshall speaker cabinets are also built to stand the test of time. Their highly skilled craftsmen construct them from the finest quality materials with precision corner locked joints, tough cotton backed PVC covering, heavy-duty hardware, and the highest quality fittings.
Racks and Combos
Although all of the stereo/mono 4×12’s are perfect for use with stereo rack systems, Marshall also produces a range of smaller 2×12 in. and 1×12 in. cabinets that are ideally suited for use with portable rack set-ups or as extension cabinets for combos.
The 1936 has Mono/Stereo options and is great for a larger rack system. It fits a full size Marshall head perfectly too, giving you a compact 2×12 stack. Whatever your rig, with our practical knowledge and unrivalled construction techniques, Marshall give you cabinets that are not only perfect for your needs, they will also last you a lifetime
The highest quality woodwork includes the “corner locking” of each and every joint. This helps give Marshall cabinets the incredible strength and durability, which has become as legendary as the Marshall sound itself.
Heavy-duty Grab Handles are fitted to all Marshall cabinets. Their tough, ergonomic, recessed casing design gives easy access to the bar of the handle without affecting the cabinet’s smooth lines
No sharp metal edges or rough fittings – the smooth ABS plastic Marshall corner fits perfectly and offers excellent protection to all 8 cabinet corners.

I play Fender Strats (SRV with Texas Specials, American Standard with a SD 'lil 59 in the bridge and stock pickups in the neck and mid positions, and a American Special w/Floyd and a Di'Marzio Super Distortion in the bridge with SD hot rails in the neck and bridge) through a Marshall 2000 TSL 100 head. I deffinatley get ever sound I need.
No noise on any setting, the cleans are clean at all volume levels. The only nock may be a little too much low end. But I haven't been able to attest it to the head or the cab yet, so I won't let that hurt my rating. The distortion is classic, perfectly suited for my sounds.
Yes, this is a British made cab. I have no idea where the speakers are made, and I dont know if its partical board or plywood (looks like plywood if you go to www.marshallamps.com). But listen… It matters not where the cab or speakers were made, what matters is the sound. And this cab makes a great sound. The country where the products were made, does not make a difference, the people and company who make it do. And Marshall make fantastic equipment. As soon as you start limiting yourself to products made in the USA only, or any other country for that matter, then you have started limiting your sound and your horizons, and closing your mind.
Remember, self-delusion breeds pride…Pride breeds the inability to learn.
Year 2000 model. I play Hard Rock/Metal and Blues (Maiden, Zeppelin, ACDC, Rush, SRV, etc.) and this cab gets the sounds that I need, and then some. You can put one head through it for 150 Watts of stero sound, or two for 75 watts each.
I would have put "no opinion" in the rating here, only because its just a cab, and is not supposed to have many features, but it does have a couple of different configs so I gave it the max rating. Its deffinatly a great cab. I bought it knowing that it only had 2 12 inch speakers, so I wasnt expecting more than I bought, which it sounds like some of the other reviews were expecting a 4X12 sound, from a 2X12 cab.
No complaints.
I've been playing 15+ years. I own a Mesa Boogie Mark IV and a Mesa Boogie Subway Rocket. But I play the Marshall more then the Boogies, by far.
If it were lost, or stolen? I would probably replace it with a 1960B 4X12, but that would only be for the extra 'umph' from the extra watts and extra speakers. But only if space were not an issue, as its nice to have this 2×12, it's so much smaller.
Love the compact size and the sounds. I dont hate anything about it, but I do wish that the jacks in the back were metal and not plastic, only because I think its a point of weakness (plastic) not because I've had any problems with it.
I have to give it a 10 (almost gave it a 9 because I have never contacted them to get a CS opinion) because for only $349.00 you could not buy something new that is better, maybe as good, but not better.

With 400 Watts of continuous power handling and four 12 in. custom JSX speakers, this cab is the perfect compliment to the JSX amplifier.
400 watts continuous power handling
16 ohms mono
Four 12 inch custom JSX speakers (rear-mounted)
11-ply birch baffle
Microphone-simulated XLR direct output so the user gets Joe’s live, onstage tone (speakers remain active when direct output is used) without using a separate mic and stand
Black weave grille cloth with JSX logo
Just South of Good
The Peavey Triple XXX cab is decent at absolute best. It doesn't respond well to mids on your standard 3 band EQ, Highs aren't much better. If you bought the Peavey Triple XXX head don't go with this cab. You're way better off going with the 6505 cab or the marshall 1960 cab.

Sovtek Mig 60 head modded by Jeff Snider (http://snideramps.com/), sounds like a Plexi and then some.
72' Tele Custom Reissue with a Fralin Blues Special pickup in the bridge, stock humbucker, Glendale Guitars magnetic double notch bridge plate and brass intone saddles.
Gibson Les Paul faded double cutaway with stock P-90's.
HBE Powerscreamer, MXR Microamp, Rat II, Line 6 Delay Modeler. Play indie rock. Some loud, some more ambient and quieter.
The sound is deep, clear, articulate, and has a nice sparkle and sheen on the high end. It gets great lows from the G12H30's and nice mids and highs from the Vintage 30's. It was everything I was looking for and a perfect match for the Sovtek. My previous cabinet was a Mesa DC vertical 2×12 and it didn't do the head justice at all. It sounded really bad, actually. But this cabinet is great. With the Tele bridge pickup it sounds nice and woody with the Fralin, rich harmonics and overtones just pour out of it, and there's that nice lower midrange thump that you can feel in your chest. The amp has a Low and High input and the cabinet sounds great no matter what you throw at it.
I have an Ampeg V2 on loan loaded with new KT88's, and though it only runs at 4 or 8 ohms and isn't pushing out as much volume as it's capable of, it sounds awesome too.
Pretty versatile so far.
Bought new. 16 ohm. 4×12 – 2 Celestion Vintage 30's on top, 2 Celestion G12H30's on the bottom. Black Tolex. Wheat grill cloth. Extra jack on back to daisy chain multiple cabinets. Weighs in at about 91 lbs. Sturdy handles. Rubber feet. I ordered the casters that I'll probably throw on some plywood to make a cart/dolly.
The build quality is excellent. No flaws. No rattles. Super sturdy. Looks great. It looks as though it may not be as deep as a typical Marshall style cab. It's straight faced and I prefer that over an angled cab. Avatar will let you throw in any number of speaker of combinations wire it any way you want it and Dave at Avatar was quick to reply to questions. It shipped to me in about a week.
Just got it so I haven't gigged with it yet, but I don't foresee any problems other than those typical of any other cabinet with use over time – torn grill cloth, torn tolex etc.
I've been playing music most of my life and had actually never owned 4×12 before this, but have played through plenty of amps and cabinets – vintage, new, reissued, boutique – and this cabinet will hold it's own with any of them, and I saved a lot of money. When it comes down to it, at this price point, nothing even comes close to what I've seen out there.
