Radial Engineering CABBONE
Speaker Cabinet Switcher

CABBONE

Cabbone switches between two speaker cabinets with one amplifier head allowing the guitarist to transition from say, a Fender 2x12" open back, to a Marshall 4x12" slant with one foot stomp! The Cabbone employs High-performance gold contact relays to switch the amp's speaker output to either cabinet without adding color or compromising your sound.

And Cabbone is safe – switching is controlled by a timer IC that manages a ramped connection overlap. This ensures a constant load on the output, a major concern with tube amps. With SafeMode™ the input signal connects to output-1 automatically if power is ever lost.

To reduce 'cable spaghetti' on stage, Cabbone is equipped with our Slingshot™ remote controled switching system. Slingshot allows any standard footswitch to control switching from your pedalboard or wherever you like, keeping the amp-to-cabinet cables short and efficient. Slingshot can also switch amp channels, effects or other Slingshot™ equipped devices, to get those perfect tone combinations quickly and with one click instead of a tap dance routine!

Like all Radial products, the Cabbone is built tough to handle the road: 14 gauge steel, baked enamel finish, high performance parts throughout. You get all of this in a compact enclosure that is ultra quiet and completely transparent to the tone of your amp.
