The ST-2m 2x12 cabinet from KW Cabs uses a combination of select hardwoods, finely tuned porting, non-braced baffles, and handpicked speakers to create a cabinet that packs a huge wallop and can easily hold its own next to larger 4x12 units.

KW Cabs founder Kurt Wyberanec launched his company back in 2003 with a mission to build exceptionally powerful and smooth-sounding guitar cabs. While many of his contemporaries were building their cabinets using traditional methods, Wyberanec built his with the resonant qualities of acoustic guitars in mind. Wyberanec believes the tonal quality of the wood in a cabinet has as much impact on guitar tone as its size and speakers. And many players who have had the chance to play through one of his cabinets—such as the ST-2m and ST-2v—have become believers themselves.

KW’s ST-2 2x12 series use a combination of select hardwoods, finely tuned porting, non-braced baffles, and handpicked speakers to create a cabinet that packs a huge wallop and can easily hold its own next to larger 4x12 units. The ST-2m in particular is geared toward modern players who crave thicker tones with tight lows, and sports a pair of Warehouse Retro 30 speakers and an additional bass port for focusing low-end dispersion.
