Yup, but for starters, one dynamic mic at a selectable position along the
front I think.

Not a huge ammount. I owned an amp for a while (now I own a battered box
that smokes and sparks when plugged in and some interesting looking bits).
There is a guy who sells amps in my street, so I'm consider going and
picking up a cheap one.
My provisional plan is to measure the boundary and cone position effects
with my dynamic and a nearfield monitor. The monitor wont give me
eqivalent results, but there are fewer variables.

For maximal realism is should probably add a muted sample of someone
shouting "turn that f**king noise off".
