What Cabinet for a Shiva?

[JMintzer]

Ok, I found my Shiva Head (EL-34 w/Reverb). Now I need a cabinet.

I really loved my old Shiva Combo (1X12) that I just sold. What do you all suggest I get to achieve that same sound?

Ted,

How do you think a Shiva would sound through a Ubercab?

[Jen]

I alternate between 2 different cabs for my Shiva:


I gig primarily with the DrZ ZBEST 2x12 loaded with a celestionV30 and celestion greenback.(This to my ears sounds fuller and has more bass response than the Bogner cabs I've tried, at least to my ears)

I also use a Two-Rock 1x12 closed back loaded with a jensen speaker (not certain of the model #) Sounds very big and full for a 1x12 and this cab is light as a feather.

I know nothing about this amp, but just a suggestion, Jamie, what about the Bogner 1x12 cab, isn't that about the same size as the combo?

Jamie,
Have you looked/listened to the (45 lb.) THD 2x12?

All good suggestions.

Baba,
I'm leaning towards the Bogner 1X12 ported cab (for the exact reason you mentioned), but I wanted to hear what other folks have tried.

Jamie,

I use the oversized 2x12 cab with v-30's. I do use this in conjunction with my shiva combo with the celestion century in it. I began using the cab when I had the non-reverb head when they first came out. It sounds great.
