Topic: Hermit Cabs....Baffling?

Hey guys,

Someone just told me Guns N' Roses were using a new design of a speaker cabinet to do their asian tour.  He told me it contains build in baffles to direct and muffle your sound for playing at high volumes.  I know Joe uses the plexi glass baffles for his amps but wondering if anybody knows what these are or if Joe ever experimented with anything like this.  Lots of vids from the guns tour of asia in december but I can't see any good shots of the cabs!


Any help would be great!

hmm

Thanks!

Re: Hermit Cabs....Baffling?

Some time ago, there was a post talking about a round baffle that went just in front of each speaker. I searched around the forum but I couldn't find the information. This could be what they use?

Sorry,
Bill

no GNR are using something different I'm sure.
I have a beam blocker and I like it, subtle but effective.
