Positive Grid Spark Cab 2

The Positive Grid Spark CAB 2 Black is an active FRFR guitar cabinet with 140 watts RMS power, designed to expand your Spark guitar amplifier into a complete amplifier setup. With a 10-inch woofer, two 1-inch tweeters, and a redesigned acoustic design, this speaker delivers a wide frequency range, clear sound reproduction, and ample volume for home use, rehearsals, and live performances.

The Spark CAB 2 is the updated version of the original Spark CAB. Positive Grid has revamped both the electronics and the acoustic tuning. An improved signal path and updated conversion technology ensure greater detail and controlled sound reproduction, even at higher volumes. In addition, the black finish with gold accents complements the design of the Spark 2.

Although the Spark CAB 2 was developed as an expansion for the Positive Grid Spark series, you can also use it with other guitar modelers, multi-effect pedals, amp simulators, and equipment with a line-level output.

140-watt FRFR amplification for your guitar sound
The Positive Grid Spark CAB 2 features a built-in Class D amplifier with a continuous power output of 140 watts RMS and a peak power output of 400 watts. This gives your guitar amplifier significantly more volume and headroom without requiring a separate power amplifier. The FRFR (Full Range, Flat Response) design is intended to reproduce the full frequency range of your guitar sound. Unlike a traditional guitar cabinet, which adds its own tonal character to the sound, an FRFR speaker is designed to reproduce the sound of digital amp models and cabinet simulations as faithfully as possible. The combination of a 10-inch woofer and two 1-inch tweeters provides a frequency range of 45 Hz to 20 kHz. This ensures that both low frequencies and the details of overdriven guitar tones, clean parts, and effects come through clearly. With a maximum sound pressure level of 118 dB RMS and 121 dB peak, the Spark CAB 2 is suitable for a variety of playing situations, from practicing in the living room to use as a personal monitor on stage.

Revamped Acoustics and Improved Electronics
For the second generation of the Spark CAB, Positive Grid has made more changes than just the exterior design. The internal acoustics have been retuned, and the electronics feature an improved signal path and conversion stage. These changes are designed to deliver clearer sound reproduction, greater definition, and better control over the sound at various volume levels. Whether you’re practicing at low volume or need more power during a rehearsal, the Spark CAB 2 is designed to preserve the characteristics of your preset guitar tone. The cabinet also features a Contour switch. This boosts the low and high frequencies, which helps create a more balanced sound, especially at lower volumes. The Ground Lift switch also provides a solution for hum caused by ground loops when multiple devices are connected together.

Designed for the Positive Grid Spark Series
The Spark CAB 2 was developed to complement the PositiveGrid Spark amplifiers. You can connect a compatible Spark amplifier via the dedicated 3.5 mm stereo input, after which the sound is played through the built-in FRFR speaker. The cabinet is tailored to the Spark 2 and features the same distinctive design. You can place the Spark 2 on top of the CAB 2, creating a compact amplifier setup with more power and a larger speaker system. The Spark CAB 2 also works with other models in the Spark family. This allows you to play the sound from your Spark 40, Spark MINI, or Spark GO through a larger speaker, while continuing to use your Spark’s amp models and effects.

Power Supply for Your Spark Amplifier and Accessories
A key feature of the Positive Grid Spark CAB 2 is its ability to power other Spark devices directly. On the back, there’s a 20V/2.5A DC power output for the Spark 2 and Spark 40. This means you don’t need to plug a separate power adapter into an outlet for these amplifiers. In addition, the Spark CAB 2 features a USB-C port with an output of 5V/2A. This port is designed to power or charge the Spark MINI, Spark GO, and Spark PEDAL. This allows you to use a complete Spark setup with just a single connection to the power outlet. The USB-C port is also used for firmware updates on the Spark CAB 2.

Also suitable for guitar modelers and multi-effect pedals
The Spark CAB 2 is not intended exclusively for use with Spark amplifiers. Thanks to the two combined XLR/TRS inputs, you can also connect other equipment that outputs a line-level signal. Examples include digital guitar modelers, floorboards, multi-effects processors, and amp simulators. The Spark CAB 2 then handles the amplification and sound reproduction of the connected device. Using the Input Selector on the back panel, you can switch between the dedicated 3.5 mm Spark input and the two XLR/TRS combo inputs. This allows you to use the cabinet with various devices without needing a separate speaker system.

Balanced XLR Output for Live Use
In addition to the inputs, the Positive Grid Spark CAB 2 features a balanced mono XLR output. This allows you to route the audio signal to a mixing console, PA system, or other compatible audio equipment. This is especially useful when you want to use the Spark CAB 2 as a personal guitar monitor during performances, while simultaneously sending the signal to the venue’s sound system. The cabinet has separate volume controls for the built-in speaker and the XLR output. The Speaker Volume control lets you adjust how loud you hear the Spark CAB 2 itself. The Line Out Volume control allows you to independently set the output level to the mixing console or PA system. This lets you adjust the volume on stage without having to change the output level to the PA at the same time.

Wooden cabinet with classic Spark design
The Positive Grid Spark CAB 2 Black features a wooden cabinet with a black Tolex finish, a woven speaker grille, and gold-colored accents. The design complements the Spark 2 Black, so that both devices form a cohesive unit. The bass-reflex design enhances low-frequency reproduction. Weighing 13.5 kg and equipped with two recessed handles on the sides, the cabinet can be easily moved between your practice room, studio, and stage. There is also an adjustable cable tie on the back. This allows you to bundle and secure instrument and audio cables together, keeping your setup organized. With its compact dimensions, the Spark CAB 2 takes up relatively little space, while still providing you with an active speaker system delivering 140 watts RMS of power.
