Positive Grid Spark Cab - Quick Unbox, First Play / Impressions!

I've got a couple Spark Amps, and they're a lot of fun. But Plugging them into a cabinet presents a lot of issues. Until this...the Spark Cab from Positive Grid Is a 140w Powered Cabinet, with some cool features. I'll have a more in-depth look as this soon.

    @@fursol I’d still probably have to go with the Headrush. It’s 2000 watts over 140. The Headrush is also not as bass heavy as the Spark. I’m actually using two Headrush. A 112 and a 108. They sound huge.

    If you take out the grill which fits very tight not easy to pull out you will see that other then the spark 40 amp the grill has a metal piece und the cloth which makes the front more solid but we found that it vibrates and with volume up and some fuzz it makes crazy noise. Just a heads up if you hear it to and wonder what happens.

    Yeah, I feel the same way. I have the Spark 40 and feel like that's 40 watts of extra power that could be used for extra amplification if needed that we're missing out on. I understand 140 watts is a decent amount of power, but why not be able to use that extra juice? Obviously I'm not a electrical engineer...lol.

    You mean the "hum"? Yea, mine has it and I haven't had time to delve into why. Some say when you change the contour switch it helps, but I'll have to sit down and test that out. I don't have others, like the Headrush to test it against, so I'm not sure how it compares, but I might look into grabbing something else to compare with. Let me know if you find out anything!

    I'm not 100% sure. I did try to pry it off like you would on a Spark Amp, and it sounds like it's pulling away from velcro, but since I was sure...and it sounded like it might be tearing what could be double sided tape, I decided to stop. Don't wanna mess up my new cab :-p But I would imagine that they would do that. If you find out that you can, would you mind stopping by and letting me know? Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻

    Also if you play metal you might not notice to much but if you like the deluxe reverb presets on the spark 40 you will definitely miss something. Eq pedal in the software helps a lot. 😊

    I've always wanted to share my other passions on the channel, but back in the day product was coming in so often for review that I couldn't even keep up. Now that it has slowed...sometimes to a trickle...I've got the time to do so, and I'm stoked on that. I think that people expect you to be one dimensional when they watch your channel...and that is just not me. I have a lot of passions, and I wish to share them. Heck, when I started the channel, I chose the name from a Rush album...because I knew I wanted to include other stuff and I love music. So yea...you'll be seeing more guitar content here on the channel. Check out some of the other new content I've got. You might find something you like! Thanks for watching! 😃👍🏻
