Hey guys,
This was posted in the clips section but I thought I'd post it here to.
I know a lot of you have been waiting for me to put this together for some time and I really do appreciate your patience.

This series of clips in intended for guitar players interested in the difference between Splawn amps and the line of speakers currently recommended for these amps.
Each recording contains two tracks, each part hard to each side. See below for the speaker key.
Each combination of speaker setups were recorded separately with both a Splawn Nitro and a Splawn Quickrod. Both were in 50 watt mode, OD1, gain ~3:00, master volume ~8:45 (very loud!). For each recording, a single speaker was miced on axis with a single sm57 about an inch of the center of the cone. The mic was run into an M-audio firewire interface into a tracking program. No effects or post EQ was done other than panning. Guitar used was a Gibson Historic Les Paul Custom w/ a Duncan Custom bridge pick up and the cab was a Splawn cab.
Here is the key in case the recording titles are confusing:
Gov = Eminence Governor
MoW = Eminence Man-o-War
sb65 = Splawn Small Block - 65
bb = Splawn Big Block
sb25 = Splawn Small Block - 25
R = panned hard R
L = panned hard L
*** Depending on how your speakers are hooked up, the R/L designation can be mixed up. If you are trying to isolate a speaker, use the "volume control" panel to adjust the balance hard left or right to isolate the appropiate speaker ****
Finally I recommend that you listen in Hi-Fi mode as this will give the most accurate represenation of the recording.
The playing is rather sloppy so I apologize for that. I didn't bother to have everything played perfectly because I don't have the equipment to reamp so yes...I played each track, each side individually
Enjoy and please let me know if you have any questions!
