I just ordered an Accugroove whappo jr. cab and it will be in monday.  I did a TON of research on these cabs and was impressed with what I read.  No bad reviews (barring the 4/8 ohm issue).  My question is, who out there in alembic land uses these cabs or at least has heard/played them and what do you think.
Thanks in advance,

Here's my Tri112L.  Good stuff.  The cabinet's frequency response works great with my Alembics.  I wanted the extra 15 for a bit more bottom.  I would've loved to get another Tri112L, but the pocket book said no.

sweet rig.  I have a hartke 4.5xl now and I am looking for a significant difference in sound.  BTW, anyone wanna buy a hartke cab?

One of my students uses an Accugroove with a single 12, powered by a Thunderfunk.  It is positively one of the nicest rigs I have ever heard.

I am seriously considering the El Whappo cab as a replacement to all my other SWR cabs. I will wait anxiously for your report on the sound of your new cab. Do you have a low-B string bass? Curious to know how the low end is supported. The mids and top end should be fabulous. I detest the piezo tweeters in the SWR cabs. Too snotty for an Alembic.

After years of using Eden cabs I switched to Accugroove about a year ago.  I use an El Whappo, Jr. on most gigs, but I also have 2 Tri 112L's that I use for rehearsals or when the gig is more than 2 flights of stairs up.  Both cabs are amazing.  The Tri 112L weighs 38 lbs, and it;s the best sounding  cab I've ever heard that I can lift with one hand.
