As you may have heard, I'm planning on crafting 2 of my own 2x12 vertical cabinets, and I was wondering what the differences in sound, presence, and stage experience with slanted or straight cabinets.

Straight cabs push the sound forward, whereas slant cabinets push it diagonally upwards. With a straight cab you hear the bass more clearly, although it depends more on what the cab's sitting on. It's really up to you though, only an experienced musician will hear the slight difference! (I don't). By the way, i like your signiture thing at the bottom!
I hope this helps.

Thanks for the speaker characteristics, man. I'm slowly trying to compile my ideal sound, and this is one of the things I'm still trying to figure out.
And I appreciate the comment, dude.
For anyone else out there who might have just one of them and might have payed both, what are some differences you've heard?
