Score!!!!!
« on: March 08, 2009, 02:48:40 PM »
Popped into my local Long & McQuade doing the usual monthly rounds and while demo-ing some new gear noticed a trade-in cabinet off in the corner. Genz Benz single 12" enclosure, front ported with a tweater. Upon further inspection, I realized that the price-tag on it said $50 ....... so I grabbed the salesguy, verified that it WAS in fact $50 (which, IMO, is at least $150 lower than it should have been) and walked out the door with it.

Sounds great, it's in really good condition and should serve me well for years to come! Gotta love it when a plan comes together, I always say ......

Great find!  12s are my favorite speaker for bass.

Even without knowing which series, I know you got a real bargain.

Yeah, you could put a Genz Benz logo/medallion on a kleenex box and get $50 out of it.
