    I have my eye on this tiny amp (Magnum 44), and plan to use it to run a cab I made a few years ago after seeing this thread.

    I made the cab and then left it sitting for yonks :rolleyes: as I couldn't find a suitable small amp for it.
    The EHX Magnum 44 looks like it might be just the thing for this cab. Anyone ever used on e of these?

    How the hell do they fit a power amp into that?

    Bet it doesn't weigh as much as my Mesa 2:90 amp.;)

    I have one. My rig at home is an Axe FX which I play through two active FRFR wedges which sounds great, but since I dont have a car atm I cant bring the wedges to practice so instead I use a 44 Magum as a poweramp between the Axe FX and a 2x12 cab we have in the studio. Despite having a tone stack in it its pretty flat and works really well with modellers. Its also really loud has a lot of clean headroom. Providing you have something you can put in front of it to shape its tone I'd 100% recommend it. Here's a kind of cool video about it:

    Look up D-class amplification. Same kinda thing as the Crate Power Block, Ashdown Little Giant, Genz Benz Shuttle etc etc. And no they're very light.. ;)

    Also really popular in car stereo systems, especially the boy racer massive bass types.
