1971 Coliseum 1x18 cabs for sale.
« on: June 19, 2010, 06:24:48 pm »
Sold as a pair only and I will not ship.  But I can deliver as far as Evansville, Indy, Cincinnati, Nashville or meet halfway to St Louis etc.  Original Cerwin Vegas have been reconed at some point.  Can email more/better pics if serious.  $600

Gosh, I thought you sold these guys awhile back.  Great speakers, and they sound even better with fresh recones. Good luck!

Well, the guy that bought the head supposedly wanted the cabinets but he has been unreachable.  I post them every few months and get a little interest, but obviously no firm bites.  They would probably be gone by now if I would separate them.  I feel kinda guilty for selling the head without them... they were together for 38 years!

Yeah, I made the mistake of making a great find on a full 1971 Coliseum Bass stack purchased from the widow of the original owner last year, and then separating the head. I purchased it with a friend and we financed the purchase by selling the head. Wish I'd kept it now and sold my '73 head instead. Oh well.

How many watts and ohms are these cabs rated for?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe they are 200 watts at 4 ohms.  These specific cabinets actually measure roughly 2.9 ohms each though.

The 1972 catalog says 300 watts at 4 ohm, as does my 1970 brochure. (I don't have any sales materials from '71.)

I'd own those already if you weren't so far away. Seriously, they look awesome. $600 for the pair or each?

I think $600 for the pair is a heckuva deal. Now if we can just find you a BUYER who agrees!

Hang in there, Messr. Lebeaux.

How far away is that? 

$600 for the pair.  I'm surprised there isn't anyone in range that will take them.
