So I'm thinking about getting an Avatar cab...I've heard nothing but good about them. I want a 2x12 cab that will go with a 5150II. I'm thinking I want to go with Celestions, just don't know what kind. Also what is the difference between a pair of the same speaker vs. two seperate ones? Thanks in advance!

120 if I am not mistaken.
The 5150s are bright so keep that in mind when looking for speakers. I used an emminence m12/v12 combination and really like it. I also used the stock sheffield speakers and liked them as well, although they were considerably brighter than the emminence. I really dont think you can go wrong with Celestions either but I have never played a 5150 through celestions so I cant really comment on them with the 5150. I really like my v30/h30 cab though, and if I needed another cab it would be another v30/h30 cab. Great speakers.Low wattage rocks!

V30s have a really nice bass response. Sounds appropriate for a 5150.Originally posted by Pink Unicorn HorseyDumbness on massive idiocy with the stupid dumb-dumbnity of ridiculous WTFation in the dumbass of you-idiot.Originally posted by Sosomething"How do I improve the tone of my ThrasherKidzz-O-Blaster combo??"
The answer is always "burn it, dumbass."

Re: What kind of speakers should I get for an Avatar cab?
I'm using 2-V30's with my Soldano Hot Rod 50 XL pushing the Avatar 2X12 cabinet. I'm real happy with the speakers. They handle cleans as well as the high gain distortion.
I'd suggest getting the horizontal 2X12 Avatar that has the interchangeable open and closed back panels. I believe it was only an extra $20 to get both panels. Well worth the cash.PRS McCarty Korina loaded w/Godwoods
