CARVIN ENGINEERINGLS (LIVE SOUND) LOUDSPEAKERS LS1523For sale is one LS1523 speaker cabinet that has been modified to include two tilt casters on the bottom rear of the cabinet, and two right angle handles at the top rear of the cabinet - Ampeg 810 / 610 style. This makes it easily transportable for live gigs and rehearsals by a single person. These additions cost me $65 on their own. You get the labor and additional hardware for free.This cab can fill a room and pump out some serious bass, even without a subwoofer.This particular speaker cabinet was recently discontinued by Carvin, which is a shame since i think it was one of their better designs and there isn't any other passive full range cabinet of this design anywhere as far as I've seen. grab this one while it's still around...Manufacturer's Description:The LS high-end loudspeakers are American made in San Diego, CA.
