Port City Amps / 1X12 OS Wave / Amp
The NEW Port City Wave™ Cabinet is truly a breakthrough in amplifier cabinet construction and design. This patented design is truly something special. The Port City Wave cabinet is constructed with a 5-inch wide, 45-degree angle sound deflecting rear panel. This panel is dadoed on both sides of the cabinet for ultimate support. Internal sound waves are projected from the back of the speaker down to the bottom of the cabinet where another 45-degree panel projects sound waves towards the front. A 1 1/8 inch angled port runs the width of the cabinet and projects these sound waves out towards you. You can hear the sound normally "lost" inside your cabinet. This design results in a much more responsive and louder cabinet. The tone produced from the Wave cabinet is smooth, even, focused and clear. The Wave cabinet is NOT a detuned cab. It is not designed to boost or cut any certain frequencies. It is designed to harness all the sound your speaker produces. The 1x12 OS Wave cabinet can match most 2x12 cabinets in its volume and depth.
The 1x12 Wave OS is a slightly bigger version than the regular 1x12 Wave. It is the exact width of our Dual Fifty amplifier. The 22 inch width will allow many heads to rest on the top of the cabinet without the heads over hanging.
At Port city we believe in the concept of innovation. From the patented design of the Wave Cabinets to the unique circuit design of our amplifiers, no detail is ignored. Our products not only look different they sound different. We invite you to explore what Port City Amplifiers has to offer you!
