Hello

As owner of the Mustang II, I would sell it and buy the Mustang Mustang IV or V head and the baffle.

By cons, HP seems to me the best quality in the Mustang IV.

Is that the broadcast sound is better with the speaker or with the 2 HP IV.

Thank you for your comments.

I just bought the IV, sounded better in the store than the III.

I would have bought the V and a 2 speaker cabinet, but one was not available.

At 47 lbs the IV is a bit heavy, but not as heavy as most of my other amps.

Thank you for your reply Kevin. :)

But is it someone could compare the head and Bafil and Mustang IV.

I wonder if the sound quality is better on the IV, because for me, HP is better than the Cab.

I've been checking the weight on 2X12 CABS.
I found they are expensive and heavy.

Most of the cabs weigh more than the combo.

If I had the time I would split the IV into two pieces and make a cabinet for it.
It would be very cool to have a solid wood speaker cab.

:lol: LOL @ scarleg ... I agree .. All my 212 Amps were around 70-80 lbs and the MIV is NOTHING compared to those. 47 lbs is soooooooooo ideal.
