UNIVOX, WESTBURY, NEW YORK, CIRCA 1970
A 6 X 10 SPEAKER CABINET
The speakerless cabinet covered in blue tolex, the logo UNIVOX applied to the front, the nameplate applied to the back panel, MODEL UX1516 / SERIAL NO. 186 IMPEDANCE 8 OHMS / MFG. BY UNICORN INC, stencilled on the back panel JEFF BECK
42 in. (106.7 cm.) high; 30 in. (76.2 cm.) wide; 14 in. (35.6 cm.) deepJeff Beck used Univox speaker cabinets with Sunn tops when touring with bassist Tim Bogert and drummer Carmine Appice as Beck, Bogert and Appice throughout 1973. Numerous photographs show the double-stacked speaker cabinets lining the stage, alongside a huge gong that was used to open the show. The ultimate power trio, later described by Jeff as ‘
like Cream on acid’, Beck, Bogert and Appice quickly became known for their electrifying high volume heavy rock stadium shows. Interviewed by Rob Mackie for
Sounds magazine in November 1974, Jeff blasted Bogert’s
‘unbelievable fetish for volume’ and conceded that they had been the ultimate band for
‘making a lot of noise’. Recalling his own experience of seeing the short-lived Beck, Bogert and Appice at the Indiana State Fairgrounds Coliseum in 1973, David Wilson of
The ToneQuest Report declared that
‘with the exception of Grand Funk Railroad, Beck, Bogert & Appice was the most painfully deafening band we ever saw throughout the ‘60s and ‘70s. Roam too near the elevated PA speakers flanking the stage (the security cops had fled) and the sound pressure created by the bass and drum kit was lethal.’
