Mixtapes

In early 2012 we were approached by our longtime friends in Mixtapes about building cabinets for them. Without hesitation RDK hit the drawing board and then into the shop. Weeks later we delivered their two custom guitar cabinets. Since then they've been touring the U.S. with such bands as The Wonder Years, Set Your Goals and H20. We are honored and proud to have built for this fine group of individuals. Do yourself a favor and check these guys (and gal) out if you haven't already. They're doing great things and deserve your attention.

Custom 4x12 guitar cabinets by RDK Sound Design


You can order their record "Even on the Worst Nights" from No Sleep Records

Back in 2008 we constructed a 4x12 out of bamboo. It is now referred to as "The BamBOOM"

Wake up Dead

Here we have the second cabinet ordered by Cincinnati punk veterans, The Messengers
On top is a 2x12 built to just kick around the shop with. Nothing fancy, just 800w of pure filth.


Within the next couple of weeks we are going to release pricing and information for unloaded cabinets. So for those of you who love and adore your speakers but want a cabinet upgrade, we will now be at your service. Until then, BANG YOUR HEAD!

Three cabinets

.. are currently in the shop. We have an 8x10 bass,  2x12 guitar, and 3x12 guitar cabinets being built.  While 8x10 bass cabinet is tailored to an industry "standard", the two guitar cabs are a bit different. The customer wanted the feel and response of a 6x12 without the hassle of lugging it around. So we decided on a 2x12/3x12 combination. Why go with a 3x12 instead of a 4x12? The 3x12 allowed us to trim some height of the total build to accommodate the customer's personal needs. However, it is still tuned for the correct amount of air to be pushed by our selection of Eminence speakers.
