The top end utilizes two large Carvin “540-H Renkus-Heinz” horn cabinets with original Renkus-Heinz SSD-1800-16 compression drivers in them. These have been changed out with Eminence drivers for now as well. Along with the folded bass horns came two Carvin “1220-M Mid Bin” dual 12″ direct radiating mid horn cabinets equipped with Carvin “High Energy HE12” drivers. In 2015, Carvin announced they would split off their guitar business into a second company named Kiesel Guitars, after their founder and father. In December of 2009 their founder, Lowell C.
I read that these “High Energy” drivers were made in-house and not by Eminence so we shall see.

They’re labeled Carvin “2000-M Sub Woofer.” They came with the original Carvin “High Energy HE15″ dual 15″ drivers in them. I obtained a Carvin Super Concert Series Stereo PA stack that appears to have a later carpeted ’80’s version of the Carvin Folded Horn cabinet.
