I can almost guarantee you it would be just fine...my guess is ZT knows two things...
1. There ARE amps in the world that probably would toast that cabinet, so they don't want to hear about it from angry dummies who roast their cabinet.
2. If it ONLY works with a ZT lunchbox, then they sell MORE LUNCHBOXES
I'm a huge fan of the lunchbox. I use mine with a reverb pedal (and occasionally a Fender voiced preamp), and I can sound great (and be heard)pretty much anywhere with a minimum of space and weight. Great product.

I'm curious how that pair will sound together. Super portable!

I've used the ZT lunchbox cabinet with a DVMark Micro50 head and it works very well, no problems.

A hint for that though--the amp is naturally EQ heavy to the mids and highs--but the speaker can actually handle more bass. This is where using something like a Fender-voiced preamp comes in.
I'm guessing if your Amp head has enough bass with other speaker setups, you CAN probably get that out of the lunchbox too...

I use a Zt Lunchbox extension cab with a Quilter 101R, and have used it with a Problock before. Works great!!

I have a ZT LB jr and am amazed at how great it sounds with a reverb pedal. ZT claims the speaker has a longer throw than normal (It’s pretty easy to see the cone move) and accounts for it deep bass for such a small speaker. I think the Jr’s 5” sounds like an 8” so the LB’s 6.5” is probably more like a 10”.

Would love to hear more details about how the zt external cab sounds in combination with another kind of mini amp (quilter ,dv mark etc.. ). Does anyone who’s used it this way have any more specifics on sound quality ?

Thanks for reporting back and looking forward to the videos ! My concern was that the zt cab might sound too thin or small with the quilters but it sounds like that’s not the case.
Interested in feedback on how the Quilter mini reverb sounds combined with the cab as well.

I just picked up a zt lunchbox cab and a quilter interblock from GC just out of pure curiosity.
The first time I plugged it in I was def disappointed (the quilter knobs did feel kind of cheap (def not the case with my quilter aviator ) but today I’ve changed my mind after playing with the eq settings.
Comparing it with my old zt lunchbox amp, the zt cab combined with the quilter inter block doesn’t have as much of a thick tone (it actually has a lot more clarity) and is way quieter at rest in regard to background white noise of the zt amp. I can also tell it won’t get as loud volume wise as the original zt amp (maybe this is where the 101 reverb would be better ) but Its prob loud enough as I was thinking this set up would be more of a rehearsal amp when I don’t have access to a car (Bay Area public transit ) or would have to walk far from parking.
Reverb is def needed and I really like how it sounds with the reverb and pre amp of my tech 21 fly rig 5 but I kind of don’t like dealing with so many cables so am not sure if I’m going to keep this setup or not (again maybe the 101 reverb may be the way to go ). The 7lb weight of the cab is pretty amazing too.

I decided to go with the mini reverb instead of the interblock. There are some disadvantages, mostly in regards to the “aux in”trick you can do with the interblock plugging in a phone to practice with ..the mini reverb won’t work for practicing with your phone like this .However the louder volume, reverb and simpler power cord work well. I just got a nice camera messenger bag that fits both the cab and the amp in addition to a lot of other pockets which is great.

No problem.
Just received a pair of Eminence Alphalite 6A's today. 94 dB sensitivity, 100W power handling. Hasty trials through Interblock, both archtop and a Hofner Beatles bass. Very promising. The NY jazz cats relying on public transit would probably prefer inflatable gear filled with helium, but my 6.5" cabs (4 lbs for guitar and 5 lbs for bass) should be attractive enough. Will ship first samples to test pilots in about a week.Last edited by Gitterbug; 04-08-2019 at 03:30 PM. Reason: Moire precise info
