Recommend a 1x10 cab

Have a tiny terror that I use for recording and I am using an old Torque 1x10 generic cab.

Just wondering if I went the extra yard and bought the Orange cab would it make a noticeable difference????

If it were me i'd probably buy a new speaker for the current cab if you weren't that impressed with it. I've bought 2 ted weber speakers, one 6" and one 12" and both are superb. And they'd cost you about 50 on ebay. Worth checking out.

Interesting, might well do that

Apart from the speaker, a cab is just wood and screws and tolex, right?

i asked the same type of question in here a while ago and someone pointed me to tubetown.they are a german company that will make any type of cabinet for you and put any type of speaker into it,they have a huge range of tolex covering and grill cloth.i bought a 1*12 cabinet with marshall black tolex and marshall grill cloth and they put a celesion alnico blue in for good measure.there is a picture in here of it.

I suppose so, but apparently good grade plywood is the way to go rather than MDF, which is what some of the lower priced cabs are made from. A good sized cab is always a plus too, rather than something 5mm wider than the speaker!
The speaker is definitely going to make the most difference, but a good speaker in a cardboard box wouldn't sound too hot.
Check out Mongotone cabs too, Quattroste has a savage 2x10 hardwood cab from them.
