Hermit Cab

d control at the cabinet source. Because some of the best amplifier tones can only be achieved by pushing the amplifiers volume past levels that are acceptable at many concerts, players have traditionally sacrificed their sound for the volume levels appropriate for the needs of the gig and venue. By giving players a complete system for sound control at its source (the cabinet), players can now tweak their amp to the desired settings without worrying about decibel levels. The main purpose of this cab is to serve as an alternative to a power attenuator by isolating, defusing and directing the sound coming out of the speakers. The player can now achieve a maximum tonal experience live and in the studio by cranking the amp with almost 100 percent isolation from other sound sources. With the "Ultra Light Microphone Placement System" one or more microphones can be installed and are fully adjustable within the cabinet to the precise spot of choice in front of the speaker. The mic cord plugs directly into the Nutrix mic jacks on the jack panel to which the internal microphone cable is connected, allowing for full sound isolation. The cabinet’s internal baffle houses the speakers at the correct predetermined degree angle (depending on the model). The Type 2 and Type 5 have hinged door panels front and back (on most models)

The hinged door panels have two types of hinges that allow the door panels to be opened a select amount and to remain open and set to the desired position to tune the Hermit Cab to any environment. The other is a custom hinge that holds the door panels in any location placed for the desired volume and diffusion. Opening the door panels attenuates the volume mechanically and defuses the sound 180 degrees off the panel so that the player (and the rest of the band) can hear it, but the sound man can't and the audience receives less direct sound

The defusing effect of the panels gives the player the desired sound that is usually heard at 8 to 12 feet from the cabinet at a distance of only 1 to 5 feet. Hermit Cab: for the most meticulous of sound direction and control!
