That's cool I'm not the only one to have experienced this in some way. :) If the Weber Maggie amp kit doesn't do it for me, I'll look into this one.
Yeah! Very cool. That Weber Maggie should do it for you I'd think. You got it sans components and sourced higher quality ones, correct?
Please, call me Austin.

Andy, good call. I think if you are going for the head and already have a nice cabinet with a good speaker, the upgrade is probably much, much cooler and more worthwhile. But the MDF closed cabinet and stock 10" speaker in the combo... actually, is quite good for what it is, but is still a serious bottleneck, nonetheless, IMO.

That I did, though it was more on a whim than really thinking the Weber stock kits sound bad.
