Hello,
I just bought on ebay a 70's 2x12 Marshall Cabinet that I'm trying to identify the exact model on the internet but without success.. can you please help me? Using the speaker codes, I realized that is from 1977, but that's it...
Please see the attached photos ;) I'm sure that will be easy for you ;)
Thanks in advanced!
I researched 1x12 open back vs. closed back vs. ported cabinet guitar cabs. My experiment with my Code 50 amp was to remove the back without unplugging anything so I could here the difference between closed back and completely open back. The amp really came alive with a lot of punch and presence while ridding the boominess that occurs. I removed the power cord socket and cut a square the same size as the speaker. This was an improvement but I liked the complete open back sound better. I then cut the back out more leaving just enough stock to support the existing power cord socket hole and protect the electronics inside the cabinet. I will continue with cosmetics such as painting inside black and/or add a grate for protection. To my ears the amp really came to life open back. I will keep it this way. It is an easy experiment to try without sacrificing anything, just remove the back cover screws and pull the back away. If you hate it you just refasten it and leave it original.

CAN I ADD ANOTHER SPEAKER CABINET TO THE CODE 50
I WOULD LIKE BOTH CABINETS TO PRODUCE SOUND
MAYBE THROUGH THE USB OR A PORT OUT OR A WIFI CONNECTION
ANY IDEAS

Hello,
I use a Marshall DSL 40 C and i would like to have an extension with one Marshall 1960 AV.
On the Marshall 1960 AV , connections are : -1 x 4 ohm imput or 8 ohms right
- 1 x 16 ohms imput or 8 ohms left
- a selector for Mono or Stereo
I read that he DSL40C can drive either 1x16 ohms ,1x8 ohm or 2x 16ohm cabinets.
My questions are :
Can I use the internal speaker and the external cabinet together ? . I know that to use only the DSL 40 C , the connection is on the 1 x 16 ohms socket.
I have only one cabinet , which selector position is correct ? Mono or stereo.
Which connections are correct ?
Thanks for your help .
Regards
Fred
I have a code 100 combo and there is an output on the back just like the code 100h. Is it possible to plug the code 100 combo into a speaker cabinet and just use it like the code 100h?
Hi all,
I bought the Marshall Class 5 combo about a year ago, and while I think that the concept is fantastic, the actual product isn't. Unfortunately, I think the stock combo sounds rather terrible. Plugged into my 4x12 cab with Neo Creambacks, the sound is vastly improved, though, so I'm thinking about getting a 1x12 cabinet to go with the combo for smaller rehearsals and gigs. Now, the Neo Creambacks eliminate some of the fizzy, harsh and unpleasant frequencies from the combo at higher volume settings, but I'm hoping to get rid of them completely. I'm currently thinking about one of the following two speakers: the Celestion V-type (this would be my first choice) or the Eminence Governor (which people compare to the V30, but with less of the harshness). In your opinion(s), which one would best achieve the sound I'm looking for?
Best,
Michael
I have an old acoustic AS80R that I have been using with a semi acoustic electric guitar for a nice clean sound. I like the sound of the combo (it has Celestion speaker elements), but the amplifier makes a constant 100 Hz buzz as soon as I turn it on, even when no guitar is connected. The buzz is louder than what I consider normal. Two professional service shops have tried to repair it.
Could I use it as speaker cabinet and replace the amp with a separate amplifier & how to do it?
Hello guitar players,
today I got my new Code 100 head and connected it with my 2x12 speaker 1936 from marshall. I tried the presets and they sound very cool but the sound is in my opinion a little bit to muffled and not clear enough.
So I kicked out the cabinet in the settings and then the sound is very clear and cool for me. But whats exactly the sense of the cab when it sounds not good in my opinion. Do I really need them?
Thanks for your answers! :)
Bought used cab labeled 1960AC
S/N 1483
Green backs all labeled 12KBT 1221/18
Would like to know the age of the cab.
Since the speakers are all marked the same I assume they are a matched set???
Thanks
Could a lower V1 tube make the green channel cleaner when I play hard,it sounds like it distorts when I dig in hard almost like a bad speaker but even a new cabinet rattles like that,any suggestion?
Good morning! I bought a Marshall 2555X Silver Jubilee amplifiers! and a Marshall 2551BV Silver Jubilee speaker cabinet. I have tried to register the speaker cabinet! but it does not work. It might just be possible to register amplifiers?
Sincerely, Mikael in Sweden.
HI,
I have read that JVM can handle 2 cabinets at the same time.
For example:
1. connect 2x12 ( 2 -> 16ohm speakers in parallel ) into 2x16ohm input ( 8ohms )
2.connect 2x12(2->8ohm speakers in parellel ) into 2x8ohm input ( 4ohms )
Both connected at the same time. it looks like JMV OT is designed to handle it. I would like to confirm if that is save.
Regards,
Hi, im jst new on using Marshall equipments and having confused regarding on how to hook up these things. Can you please give me possible ideas on how to connect my DSL 100H to 2 sets of 1922 cabinet speakers? Impedances are confusing.
1) CODE 50 occasionally locks up when changing speaker cabinets (no sound). Must reboot.
2) sound gets progressively "muddy" when tweaking controls. Must reboot to get the sound back.
3) Cannot update: CODE connects to PC, but app generates error saying it cannot get information from the CODE.
Hi,
I've 2 old marshall 1912 speaker cabinets and 2 questions:
1) how can I remove the front panel for cleaning the grid?
2) there's a dedicated cover for the 1912 cabinets?
Thanks a lot
Hello, I purchased the DSL40C and MX212 Cabinet. I know the Speaker in the combo is 16-ohms. I also know the speakers in the MX212 are wired for 8-ohms. I know if I use the cabinet, I can't use the speaker in the combo together. My question is, has anybody ever put an 8-ohm speaker in the combo? I am thinking that two 8-ohm loads would give me a 3x12 config for extra beef! Would this work, and would the amp still sound just as good if I used it alone (to take to jam sessions) on the 8-ohm output? Thanks
