That makes me wonder how something can sound "icepicky."

Kinda like how my friend describes Aquafina as tasting "round."

People confuse me.


I was likely going to go with hellatones anyway. I'm thinking the 60s would be the way to go, as opposed to 30s, probably because they'd be able to handle more output (i think thats how it works).

"icepicky" generally refers to a piercingly sharp sound...

that being said, a 4x12, with a quartet of 30W speakers is going to be able to handle 120W, because the power is going to be divided equally...at least this is my understanding of cabinet ratings.

depends if you need 240 watt handling or 120 watt. In my cab I have a hellatone 3 and a hellatone 60.

I believe they are the same price, so I'll go for the bigger one.
