    If one thing personifies the image of rock 'n' roll more than anything else it's the Marshall 4x12. Though often imitated, nothing compares with the original. The first 4x12 cab was designed and built by Jim Marshall in 1962. Since then Marshall has made many thousands, which have appeared on stages both large and small all over the world. > More

    Product Description

    The MF280 (280W) and MF400 (400W) cabinets are specially engineered to reproduce the balanced mid range and huge bottom end that are a pre-requisite for extreme hard rock and nu-metal sounds.

    Features:
    Sonically optimized Celestion loudspeaker designs

    Pro-gauge internal wiring

    Increased internal volume

    Metal logo and piping

    In keeping with all legendary Marshall cabinets the MF 4x12 in. cabinets are not only ready for the sonic demands of a high performance head like the MF350, but also the extreme physical abuse they may receive on the road.

    Marshall recommends the MF280A (angled) and B (base) for full-stack operation and the MF400A or B for half-stack operation.

    Full Stack Versus Half Stack
    The MODE FOUR cabinets can be used either as a full stack (2 cabinets) or half stack (1 cabinet) configuration. The rig you choose is a matter of personal taste and as always when it comes to sound we recommend you try both to see which suits your style best. Below is a guide to the major attributes of each:

    Full Stack:
    Enhanced on stage spread

    More 'cut through' due to accentuated treble and high mids

    Iconic stage presence

    Half Stack:
    More controllable spread of sound on stage (especially base type)

    Convenient and portable

    Half Stack Options
    Whether you choose an angled or base half stack configuration is a personal choice between the different tonal qualities of each set up.

    The MF400A (angled) is, in keeping with other angled 4x12 in. cabinets, tonally more aggressive than the base option. The angled cabinet is the usual choice for those who want a more prominent upper mid and treble response that really cuts through in a live situation.

    Alternatively, the MF400B (base) delivers a more even mid range with less spread of the aggressive treble response. Marshall 4x12 in. base cabinets are more often used by professionals as they have a more focused bottom end and a smoother mid range and treble response. They are often easier to deal with in terms of sound reinforcement and monitoring in a live situation.
