Re: fender Bassman 50 to #102 Robben Ford Dumble amp

Hi Smitty, The cab is bigger than the original TL806 design. The speaker area and ports are to spec but he added a little bit to the cab so it wold be the same size as my head. I think I have the cab sorted out. I caulked all seams, replaced all screws with bigger ones, installed gasket material bet...

Re: Insulating a Thiele TL806 cabinet ?????

I did have some pillow batting in the cab but I used staples. I ripped that out and siliconed all the seams and picked up some bigger screws. All the joints are glued and screwed but a bunch of the screws are stripped. I also picked up some weather stripping for the baffle board and back panel of th...

Re: Insulating a Thiele TL806 cabinet ?????

Yup, I was referring to insulation. Does anyone have advice on what to use and hoe to install it? Do you use some kind of spray adhesive? What insulation do you use? picks would be awesome....

Thanks

Insulating a Thiele TL806 cabinet ?????

I get a low level buzz through the cab speaker when I drive the speaker a bit. I have an EVM2L in the cab and I've tried a couple on them so I ruled out the speaker as the problem. I ran my fender twin through the cab and it still did the same thing. Im going to go through the cab to make sure every...

Re: fender Bassman 50 to #102 Robben Ford Dumble amp

Just wasted time and money re-coning these speakers. It turns out its something with the cab. I hooked my fender twin to the cab and it did the same thing. I guess I need to look ay the can to see how well its made and if I have an air tight seal. Is insulation a big thing with these cabs? Does anyo...

Re: Ultimate Hammond Conversions thread

I think I've parted out about 20 organs or more in the last 10 years. I believe the L100 is the best one for an amp conversion. I have found some other ones that have great iron but the L100 has a good size chassis for an amplifier build. I have another chassis sitting in my basement that has a nice...

KT66 in a 102 dumble style amplifier??

Hi Guys,

Has anyone tried KT66's in Dumble style amps? If so what did you think? I was thinking of trying a set in my Bassman / RF dumble clone.

Thanks

Re: fender Bassman 50 to #102 Robben Ford Dumble amp

I believe mine are from the 80'd but I would have to take another look to make sure. Here is what was happening with all three of my speakers. When I started to push them and get the cone moving i'd get a low level buzz through the speaker. I checked my cab and she seems solid. I was doing the test ...

Re: fender Bassman 50 to #102 Robben Ford Dumble amp

I'm having issues with my EV's. I think they might be getting some voice coil rub. I get some weird noise on the low notes when I start to push them a bit. I have to do more tests but I'm thinking I'll need to order some recone kits. Oh whell, I got them cheep enough so I'm not too sad about the who...
