Your Words:
Your 8" ceramic speaker turned my little Korean-made Vox Cambridge 15 into a
world-class amp. I had tried a J***** Alnico, but it had no bass at all. I
tried 2 different W****s, but they both sounded sounded like mud with an
ice-pick treble thrown on top. When I put the Tubby in I couldn't believe
what I was hearing. The treble is sweet, crisp and rounded off perfectly,
no harshness at all. The bass response is tougher and ballsier than any 1x8
I've heard anywhere, anytime. No matter how I set the dials, I can not dial
up a bad tone with this amp. Who would have guessed that the speaker alone
could make THIS much difference? But it really does. Thank you!

Your Words:
I use an HBOMB configuration (one Alnico & one Cermaic) with my Soldano
SLO-100 and the sound is amazing. With this set-up and my strat, I get some
amazing vintage tones, along with some awesome crunch. The speakers are
extremely versatile and are the warmest/smoothest speakers ever! The
speakers were a great improvement from Vintage 30's I was using, they
rounded my tone and got rid of the harsh-pitched highs.
TT also has GREAT customer service, where you can actually speak to a human being!

Good day to you. The JBL D130 that you reconed for me (#2 in development sequence) is a mother of a bad ass speaker!! I have it installed in a Mojo cabinet that does not do the speaker enough justice. I am having Cas Azera from Tone-Tools in Sarasota (http://www.tone-tools.com/) construct for me two cabinets one for the E120 12� that you reconed and one for the 15�. The cabinets will be amazing!
When all is said and done I�ll send a photo of the finished products.
Anyway, the speaker is amazing.

To everyone at A Brown Soun;
Thanks for all of your hard work and every
one at A Brown Soun on the extraordinary job you had
done on my Rivera M60 112. I knew that Rivera had a
good reputation but the sound quality of the amp prior
to bringing it to A Brown Soun was good but in general
uninspired and for the most part harsh.
Obviously having the amp biased correctly and
replacing three suspect 12AX7 tubes helped but that
wouldn't have addressed the pronounced mid range honk
from the stock speaker. The new Tone Tubby 12" HIE 8 adds a
lot more complexity and warmth to the amp (the clean
channel is now set to emulate a tone that Bob Wills
would be dang proud of) and with the gain channel it
will go from "Beano" to ballistic with a couple tugs
of the eq boosts.
Man, I've been playing heavy rock for twenty five
years and this is now the thickest, heaviest, meanest,
gain tone I think I've heard. I can't believe it's all
coming out of an open back 1 12 cab.
I knew that dropping in a top dollar speaker in my amp
was a gamble but I whole heatedly think that the
gamble had payed off. Sure, the repair bill was quite
a bit of money but when compared to the cost of a new
domestically made amp the total was a third less than
what I was looking at as a replacement amp.
Again, thank you so much for your hard work, your
professionalism, and your courtesy.

A Brown Guys -
I got my JBL
L150A's back from you last Friday, but it wasn't until
yesterday that I got them set up. You guys did a great job!! My
21-year-old JBLs are kickin' again as well as they ever have. I had to
go out and spend $100 on new CDs, they sounded so good.
I'm a satisfied customer. Thanks.

Thank you for the wonderful
work you did on my JBL's, they sing again!!!

Greetings A
Brown.
You did a fantastic recone job of a couple of Weber Blue Dogs for me a few
months ago. I have two more that I'd like to send you for the same, hemp cone,
treatment. I've got the packing down now so I'll get them out to you in a
few days.
Thanks, Jeff

Hey guys, just a note to let you know the Altec 9s that you repaired for me work & SOUND great! I had forgotten what a nice sound they produce. I think on some recordings they sound better than my new paradigm monitor 7s & pdr-12 sub. Once again, thanks for the great work .

Just wanted
to give you some feedback. My woofers arrived today. They
sound great. I told my brother about it and he mentioned his rotted foam
surrounds. I gave him your website and I think he will be sending his
woofers to you, also. Thank you very much for restoring my speakers to
their 1970's condition. I look forward to many years of loud rock and roll.
