Eminence Tone Chamber: No, This Is Not An Interrogation Room At Git-Mo

April 11, 2008
The Eminence Tone Chamber

If you happen to be driving south on I-57 from Monee to Bourbonnais, be sure to stop by scenic Manteno, Kankakee Co., IL. If you happen to be traveling between September 20th-23rd, be sure to enjoy Manteno's renowned Oktoberfestivities. Any other time of the year WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU WAITING FOR GO TO THE EMINENCE TONE CHAMBER.

Loudspeakers Plus in Manteno, IL is the lucky recipient of a custom retail installation from one of the premier names in Guitar Speaker Design, Eminence. The Tone Chamber, as its name suggests, is an acoustically treated room that houses the custom 9x4x12 cabinets, custom built by Ramsdell Sound. If you just did the math, you know that there's 36 speakers in the Tone Chamber, and each one of them is acoustically isolated, allowing prospective buyers to audition any speaker individually, or, should they wish, all of the speakers at once.

To experience the Tone Chamber, you've got to call ahead and make an appointment (just imagine what the waiting list is like already). Once your special day arrives, you bring your guitar and your amp with you; you'll be able to know what each speaker would sound like as a new component in your specific setup, assuming of course that your setup includes nine custom-built 4x12 cabinets.

So, like I said, what the hell are you waiting for? Make an appointment, book your flight, cancel all other plans and bring enough food and water. For once you enter THE TONE CHAMBER, there's no telling how long you'll be its prisoner! A HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Guitar Speakers and The Tone Chamber

Thanks Owen - we appreciate your support. I have one quick correction for you. You can try all of the guitar speakers individually or you can combine them in pairs - two at a time. This is a great feature as combining speakers is becoming more and more popular in 2x12 and 4x12 applications. Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions. Thanks again Owen!
