Thought some here may like this photo from 1973. Love those SUNN folded horn bass cabs in the background.

The Sunn rig is a Coliseum head (320 watts RMS @ 2Ω) sitting atop a pair of 118MH cabs (each with an 18-inch Cerwin-Vega driver).

The pair of 6F7 Bandmaster heads astride the pair of tone-ring Showman cabs is noteworthy.

Love the "Broken Arrow" logo on the hard case holding up one of the Twin Reverbs. :)

For the sound men out there... How does this setup work? Is each amp used independently with some sort of switch to select the desired amp for each song? There seems to be two of each type of amp. Just curious....

The paired amp types usually mean that one of them is a spare in the event of onstage failure.

Multi-amp rigs such as this are generally footswitch-controlled.

Got it :D I thought they might be hooked up in parallel somehow.

I use to own that type of sunn Cabinet
Image just like this and they were pretty darn good. I ended up giving them to a kid (UNLOADED) to make room, as he was just staring out, and really wanted some subs, and I was not using them
