Re: Blackstar HT-5 Head
here is the link that show's how to put a 12" speaker into the cab if anyone's interested,as i do believe this is what this setup need's or go to a 2x12 or 4x12 cab....10" speaker's just won't give you the ball's when needed,12" will give you more clarity as well.

Re: Blackstar HT-5 Head
Instead of buying the 1x10" cab that came with it, I saved well over $100/USD by converting an old combo amp, and swapping its (bass) speaker for a Jensen "Vintage Ceramic" series 35w C12Q speaker.
This Head/cab combo has more guts than any small amp i've ever owned, and it's quite easy to do if anyone has a shorted out solid state amp lying around wasting.

If you ever need to re-cover a grille, (I don't know if it would be worth the shipping rate from the U.S. but) I know an exellent source that supplies vintage grille-cloth for various Fenders,Marshalls,Voxs,Mesas,Laneys, and several others........if any of y'all ever need it, i'll drop the link to the source.

You can do it in the section https://blackstarforum.forumactif.com/promote-your-websites-links-myspace-f16/
It will be nice !
I have done this one my Fender Twin, using a Marshall Bluesbreaker grill cloth...hard to do but nice !
The one on my Artisan is really beautiful, but maybe i'll find a vintage one to fall in love with !
