I don’t have experience, but I’ve heard things. Try these internet search terms:
ear candy speaker cabinet beware

But if you search “ear candy” on this forum you’ll find some positive experiences.

Hello again everyone. You have all been so helpful. Thanks! I am now down to deciding between the Razer's Edge Stealth 10 and New York 8.

Any suggestions on what would pair best with my Henriksen Jazz Amp with 10" speaker? I'm gravitating toward the Stealth 10, because I like the sound of a 10" speaker, but I'm open to the idea of using an 8" extension.

Thanks,

Brad

Perhaps these are no longer issues but one should do a google search first to hear the assertions made before jumping in.

Again, "Buyer Beware!"
Be safe and buy them used, if you want their specific style/design.

I have both the Stealth 10 and NY-8. The Stealth 10 is the better extension cabinet for my purposes. More bass response. If weight is a concern, there are lighter choices than the NY-8 these days.

Many thanks to all of you who have responded to my request for advise about extension speaker cabinets. I finally ordered the Razer's Edge Stealth 10 ER to pair with my Henriksen Jazz Amp. So far, this seems like a company with integrity. I sent an email to them last night just to get an idea of the shipping date and this morning (Sunday), I got a returned email from Geoff from Razer's Edge telling me about when they'd be shipping. They are waiting for the Eminence speakers to be delivered on Wednesday.

Considering the "buyer beware" concerns about other companies, I'm happy that I chose Razer's Edge.

One other thing: Have any of you ever attended the Yosemite Jazz Camp in Oakhurst, CA? Rich Severson, one of the best, hosts this. I just retired last month and am considering going to this even next summer, so I'm wondering if any of you have been.

Thanks,

Brad

Brad, congrats on the RE purchase, and yes, you can trust the company/people! Let us know when you receive it and put it through the tests!

**BradM** · 07-07-2019, 05:32 PM

Will do sir.

Congrats BradM on a wise choice. I have the NY8ER and like the ER (Extended Range) feature. Very nice.

i mentioned this before but if you can be patient, Geoff at Raezer's edge is looking at coming out with some open back cabs with neo speakers soon which should cut the weight considerably. I also really love the jensen neo speakers. They are the best and most guitaristic I have heard and he's looking at using those.

Yes, I do remember your post Jzucker. I just need a good ext. cab now because I have a couple of gigs. Who knows, perhaps I can scrape together a few more bucks and get one of the new open back cabs. We will see. Heck, if I get enough of them, the backline will look like something on the stage of an Ingvey Malmstein concert. LOL! What the heck are all of those many Marshalls for anway?

Take Care and thank you so much for your advise.
