A Brown Soun Inc., 53 Joseph Ct. San Rafael, CA 94903

"The most significant development in speaker design for decades"
David Wilson - ToneQuest

Hempcone technology was developed by John Harrison at A Brown Soun Inc. San Rafael, California USA. Tone Tubbys are fast becoming an underground phenomenon because of their incredible warmth, clarity and efficiency.

"With the Tubs your standard settings are no longer relevant. They are generally more efficient, and have more bass extension, and smoother mids. As you dial them in a bit, they will release the inner soul of the strings, pick-ups, guitar, amp, and player that they convey"

Many musicians agree, joining an illustrious group of Tone Tubby friends that includes Carlos Santana, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Herring, Warren Haynes ( Allman Brothers Band ), Derek Trucks, Phil Lesh, Bob Weir, Billy Gibbons, John Mellencamp, Oasis, Nickleback, Steve Miller, Huey Lewis, The Eagles ..

Hempcone Comparison:

  • H1 Original Hempcone, darker sounding, available as a special order.
  • H1E Current standard, most balanced sounding, rich and full lows, mids and highs.
  • H1EDD Brightest with glassy highs, ONLY available on the AlNiCo 12.

Tone Tubby AlNiCo 12, 12", 8-Ohm, 16-Ohm, H1E Hempcone, 50-watts

A smooth and warm tone, with a mid-range airiness and fat, silky and thick overdrive without any harsh high end and no "farting out" like other low-wattage AlNiCo speakers. In a recommended open back cabinet, the mid-range airiness provides the most 3-dimensional tone, when compared to the other speakers.
