well, in light of recent events, i think it's time for new speakers
i love the swamps, but they just don't do it for me in the 2x12, and i'm done with the red white & blues (midrange is too metalish on them), so basically, i have a 4x12 with 2 swamps on the bottom, and the rest to work with
my narrowed options are
eminence governors (v30's)
eminence wizards (g12h30's)
celestion g12t75's
now when i had the 75's up top in the 2x12, they sounded really good, but at around 1/3rd power (that's all i got up to before i blew one... it was old) i could see a possibility of getting kinda shrill at higher volumes. But i never ACTUALLY witnessed it happen, just a theory with how they were reacting with the change in volume. At 1/3rd volume they sounded really good though
governors, if i'm correct on this (prolly not, i should just get a 5150 ) are more prone to shrillness than 75's, and i don't really like the sound of them up top anyways, they ARE an option but not one i'm particularly enthused about
wizards I DEFINATELY want in the top 2 spots of the 4x12. They just sound really great, true winners here, i just don't know how they'd sound alone in a 2x12. Maybe a combo of them & the 75's for the 2x12? i dunno
another option with the whole lacking bass thing in the 2x12 would be to rewire them with a bigger gauge, as the stock avatar gauge is pretty small, but i dunno how much this would help or what gauge to go with
so, any thoughts?
