I don't know what it is about Marshall cabs but they do get that special sound. Carvin and a lot of companies make good cabs but they just don't get the Marshall sound. I always tell people the spend the extra money and get a real Marshall cabinet if they like the Marshall sound.
I didn't mean to shit all over Peavey, the Wolgangs were pretty good guitars but overpriced for what they were and the classic tweed line of amps they make are kind of cool. I had a Classic 30 and it was a pretty good amp but the box it was in was made of cheap fiber board. If that amp was a Marshall, it would have been finger jointed Baltic Birch plywood. That's always the thing with Peavey, you are going to find something cheap or wrong on even a good Peavey product. The Floyd Rose trems on the Wolfgangs were pure shit. You shouldn't have to order a real Floyd to replace the original equipment on a $1,600 guitar. The castors and tolex covering on the 5150 speaker cabinets were shit too. The castors on my cab broke. Jim Marshall has followed a time proven formula for making good speakers and amps. They are made to go on the road and be dragged around. Peavey shit breaks. Oh it might just be the little wheels on the speaker but for a cab that costs over $500, they should be better. Peavey is always cutting corners somewhere.
