Title: Sunn Solarus Cabinet
Post by: T-binger on May 07, 2002, 11:41:00 am

I bought an old Sunn Solarus Head for $50 and had it gone through with new tubes and cleaned. Sounds great.  What size cabinet came with these heads and what speakers?  Also, My head is missing the SUNN logo. Are replacements available anywhere?   Tom

The Solarus was first released as a pseudo-piggy back. See the "brochure" at this site. It was an open back cab with two 12 inch "Sunn Transducers." These had monster ceramic magnets, similar to those used on the Fender Twin.

Don't know what was used after the Solarus became a real piggy back.

Hope this helps.
