    There are plenty of calculators available via Google to work out what you need to make a passive filter to emulate a speaker....

    One I thought might be worth a try is at http://www.calculatoredge.com/electr...low%20pass.htm

    Put in the impedance and number of stages and the calculator does the rest..... 600 ohm for line level or 8 ohm for speaker level, and more stages gives a steeper slope. May not be ideal, plenty to experiment with and worth a try...

    Oh, and don't bother with the line out. You're better off with a mic, a di or both.

    Update:

    Okay it's time for an update, I've been looking at buying a speaker cab, and building one myself, it turns out that both options are going to cost me a bit, recently, I was in my local Cash Converters shop doing some browsing, when I noticed that they had an Ashton GA-100 Amp Head and Quad Box in stock, anyway, I waited till today to go and see if they were both still in stock and they were, what's more, they were being sold separately, the Ashton Quad Box was going for $450.00, so I decided to put it on layby, I put $200.00 on it and only have another $250.00 left to pay off, the people at Cash Converters are giving me 3 months to pay it off.

    I googled the specs for the Ashton Quad Box and it turns out that it can handle 200Watts of power, impedance is 8 Ohms, and has four Celestion Rocket 50's in it, the Ashton GA-100 Head and Quad Box looked like the one in the pic below:

    It's Karma that the cab was destined for you Doc... Sitting there patiently waiting for you to put it on layby...

    Or, it was tempting me to buy it by whispering sweet nothings in my ear subliminally, which is probably more the case....lol.


    I'm thinking that, if it all works out, pairing the Ashton Quad Box with my Fender Super Twin is going to result in a killer guitar rig, especially for doing Surf Rock tunes, if I need some overdrive tones I'll be able to add a distortion pedal to the mix, since the Super Twin should take pedals pretty well, the Super Twin also has a 5-band foot-switchable EQ built in so that should be pretty useful.

    Haha...yeah, that's exactly the point....lol.


    Once I get the quad box home from Cashies, I'll be sure to post a pic of it with my Fender Super Twin amp perched on top of it for all of the forum members, I'm sure everyone will be interested in checking it out, might record a demo of it connected up to my Marshall amp too.

    Update:

    I've organized things with a good mate of mine to pick up the Ashton Quad Box from Cash Converters on Tuesday next week after uni, feeling pretty excited about it since it means I can finally start making some serious progress on getting the Super Twin amp up and running, ready for gigging.

    Will post a pic of it once I get it home.....stay tuned.
