Whether you go full blast with a 4x12 cabinet or a single speaker, these amp cabs rule!

Guitar Amplifier Buying Guide: Speaker Cabinets

What happens after your amplifier's tubes or transistors create all that immense tonal power? It gets pumped out through your speakers -- the final stage of tone-shaping in your guitar rig.

The way speakers affect your tone depends on many factors: the size of the speaker, its power rating, the power of your amplifier, and whether you play through a single speaker or multiple speakers.

We've broken down our favorite speaker cabs by number and size of the speaker to help you find the perfect fit. Each one of these cabinets features rugged construction for reliability on the road and professional grade speakers to keep up with your playing night after night. So, plug into any one of these excellent cabinets and let your playing be heard loud and clear!
4x12" Guitar Speaker Cabinets
The standard for half and full stacks, these large-and-in-charge speaker cabinets are great for filling larger venues and clubs with crisp and clear tone. Depending on the speaker wattage, you can get buttery smooth distortion or pummeling cleans -- the higher the wattage, the cleaner the sound. Stack an angled or "slant" cabinet on top of a "straight" cab to invoke the iconic 8x12" full stack.

2x12 Guitar Speaker Cabinets
These smaller, but still very powerful 2x12" speaker cabinets are great for players that don't need to be brutally loud, or to extend a 4x12" half stack without creating a full stack.

1x12", 1x10" and 1x8" Guitar Speaker Cabinets
For gigs that don't require as much volume, or for recording sessions, these single-speaker extension cabinets can't be beat. They are great for letting an individual speaker's tonal characteristics shine through, and can be more flexible and easier to control than multiple speaker configurations. Not to mention, these compact cabs are typically lighter weight and easier to fit in your van.
