Tasty! I almost bought 2 FMC cab's myself but didnt want to wait several months. (Have secondhand Mesa Boogie now) And I'm still highly curious about these Weber Amps. I read a lot of very good things about them.

The stack is very well tuned and made for eachother. The manufacturers are in close contact and exchange their customers responses for input to the development (at least on the speakers cabin). I chose the 2x15" together with 2x8" and a tweeter (the latter both switchtable in frequency and with volume pot). These are all neodymium speakers and as the enclosure is made on light birch (however no resonating or vibrating enclosure) the thing weights only about 60Lbs!!! :shock:
The sound is very fundamental deep and has a nice growl for the low mids. The tweeter is used for slapp-stile sounds only.
For the overall price of 750€ I'm very happy with that professional and custom made box. :D It seems to be the German version of a "clean" sounding Ampeg rack.
