TTC 212 BritREX - CUSTOM SHOP
Specifications
If you order speakers together with this cabinet then we do NOT install the loudspeakers, but deliver them in an additional parcel, because the cabinet becomes too heavy for transport which increases the likelihood of damage.
A carefully selected and balanced combination of poplar and birchwood provides a broad soundstage and strong projection, tight but vibrant bass reproduction, a robust midrange and sweet highs, and an ideal ratio of large cabinet volume and surprisingly low weight.
While the REX Series cabinets deliver excellent results in a wide variety of musical styles, they have found particular favor with rock and heavy metal players. Yet they are just as suitable for jazz and blues, as proven on countless occasions.
In addition to the size of a speaker cabinet, the "back" has a very big influence on the sound of a speaker cab.
Piping
the cabinet walls themselves do not vibrate as much as walls made from other kinds of wood, yet still won’t sound “dead” – as is often the case in MDF speaker enclosures – but retain a certain “liveliness”.
Other advantages are high stability, ruggedness and reliability, making them perfect for use on the road. In addition, these cabinets handle far more power than similarly-sized cabs made of softer materials. The trade-off, of course, is higher weight. But for real Brits, nothing but birchwood will do.
Two lines of British Series cabinets are available. The first comprises standard sizes with freely configurable exterior design options (Tolex, grillcloth, hardware, etc.). The second variant, the CS line, also allows you to specify the size of the cabinet within certain technical limits.

REX Series
The REX Series is a universal and versatile platform for countless speaker/cab combinations. The cabinets’ relatively large volume works exceedingly well with the vast majority of guitar speakers available today.A carefully selected and balanced combination of poplar and birchwood provides a broad soundstage and strong projection, tight but vibrant bass reproduction, a robust midrange and sweet highs, and an ideal ratio of large cabinet volume and surprisingly low weight.

Optionen
We offer a wide varaity of options for most of the speaker cabs that we build. The customer can choose from this options to adjust the speaker cab to his or her own needs and ideas.
Back-PanelsIn addition to the size of a speaker cabinet, the "back" has a very big influence on the sound of a speaker cab.
Closed-Backs cabinets are widely used because they are easy to handle. But they have a bad habit: closed-back cabinets have a more or less strong damping effect on higher frequencies but also also the bass responce and they might be significantly quieter too than cabinets with an open back. The benefits, however, is a tight and well-controlled bass which make them ideal for loud and heavy sounds.
An Open Back cabinets produces a wide tonal range with a rich top end and a strong bass, but the bass response is less controlled than in a closed back cab because the cone of the speaker moves more freely with less control.
The "Flex-Back" – a development by TTC - however, is a mixture of both concepts and allows a quick change from a closed to an open back and vice versa - without tools. Thus the box can be easily adapted to the particular circumstances and needs.
The Oval or Dumble Back represents a kind of open-back - ported speaker cab with a higher tuning frequency than standard ported cabs, designed to push the mid-range which will result in a warm, smooth and full sound.
Options for the front side
The difference between a "Standard front" and a "XL-Front" is purely optical, and does not effect the sound. With a slanted mounted baffle the "Monitor"- effect is much higher than with a straight mounted baffle, because the sound is more radiated toward the musician.

The British Series
The birch plywood used for our British Series is extremely tough, and has a much higher density and stiffness than poplar or basswood. Birch cabinets therefore tend to deliver a clear and defined bass response, asthe cabinet walls themselves do not vibrate as much as walls made from other kinds of wood, yet still won’t sound “dead” – as is often the case in MDF speaker enclosures – but retain a certain “liveliness”.
Other advantages are high stability, ruggedness and reliability, making them perfect for use on the road. In addition, these cabinets handle far more power than similarly-sized cabs made of softer materials. The trade-off, of course, is higher weight. But for real Brits, nothing but birchwood will do.
