We have a Line6 cab loaded with V30's...but I don't really dig the way the cab sounds. We also have a Mesa 3/4 size cab that usually sounds pretty good loaded with Mesa Black Shadow speakers. I feel like the Line6 cab won't get used much since we just got an ENGL cab (with V60's). Is it worth a try to put the V30's in the Mesa cab instead?
 
The cabinet itself affects a lot how the speakers sound. Take two different cabs, say Mesa 4x12" Recto STD and Engl 4x12" XXL for example, and they sound nothing like each other even though both have the same four speakers.
 
This is very true. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with V30's in a smaller, more well constructed cabinet.
