Hi all, I just put my speaker panel on my cabinet and was ready to cut the Happ marquee retainer when a thought hit me. Do you put the marquee retainer on both the top and bottom of the marquee, or just on top?? I know that you can answer this by saying "It depends on how you want it to look. . ." but I'm more interested in how you put your marquee retainer on your cab! Thanks. |

More of a 'depends on how you designed your cabinet.' The Dynamo cab I have downstairs has a retainer on the bottom. That's because it was designed with a groove on the top that the marquee slips into. |

Different cabinets do it differently. My Q*bert has a slot in the wood on the bottom, retainer on top. My Moon Patrol, Buck Rogers, and Klax have retainers on top and bottom. If you don't have a slot cut for the marquee plexi, go ahead and up retainers on top and bottom. Rocky |

I built a Lusid Cab and put the retainer on both the top and bottom. I used 2 screws to fasten the bottom part. The top retainer snapped in and fit snuggly without any screws so I left it that way. |

what they said, depends on your design. Since I took alot of construction design from my Double dragon II cab (a dynamo) the marque runs up a groove and slips into a slot on the top and a retainer (canibalized from my double dragon II cab for now) is on the bottom holding the marquee up. My uncle's generic cab that he has asteroids in has a retainer on top and on bottom. |
