    Is that a modded Valve Junior in the background? If so what mods have you done to it?

    Cool. I've modded a few of thos Valve Juniors. They sound much better with a few parts changes.

    Here's my mini stack:

    I had to make a parallel box so that I could hook up both 8 ohm speakers in parallel and then plug them into the 4-ohm output on the VJ.

    Here's another head on the two RSA cabs:

    http://www.diycustomamps.com/images/BH_stack.jpg

    Luckily, the BH head has two 4 ohm inputs to hook up two 8 ohm cabs, no parallel box needed.

    I wish I had picked up a couple of those VJ cabs back when they were $129, now they are $149.

    Well said my friend! Welcome to the boards. You are very well-spoken and I think you'll like it at The Fret. These are very nice folks here.
    Too much linear thought is bad for Art.
