12 Inch Speaker Like The Vintage 30 But Without The Annoying Hi Spike??

Re: 12 Inch Speaker Like The Vintage 30 But Without The Annoying Hi Spike??

Well I ran them with my Hiwatt, just to see what they could do...not impressive.
But not horrible either, but they have their own distinctive voice.

So you didn't like the Black Shadows?

I really like them a lot...supposedly just like the Celestion Cl80s....smooth, warm, and round.

+whatever for the V12's!

One thing: I disagree about the V-30 having more bass than the G12H-30. I think the G12H-30 has more bass than Vintage 30. But I sort of agree on the "hollow" description of the V-30, because I do hear the V-30 as having less mids and less texture to the mids than the G12H-30. Those differences between the two are what make them compliment each other so beautifully when you combine one of each in a two 12 cab. Lew

I Was Originally Going To Get A Couple Og G12t75 Speakers But Could Not Find Any On Ebay For 8 Ohms. I Guess Most Cabs Like Marshall Are 16 Ohm. I Ended Up Going With 2 G12k100 Speakers And Mix Them With 2 V30s. I Always Wondered If I Would Be Better Off Trying That Combo First Before Selling The V30s.

I LIKE THE BLACK SHADOWS AND ESPECIALLY THE HIGHS AND MIDS BUT IT DI NOT HAVE THE LOWS OF THE G12K1OO SPEAKERS AND I TRIED THEM WITH THE G12K100 ONLY AND IT WAS TOO CLEAN WITH THE 2 SPEAKERS BEING HI WATTS. i AM USING THESE IN A HEAVY BAND THAT PLAYS IN C, B WITH LES PAULS AND 7 STRINGS TUNED TO A. THE CAB IS A MESA OVERSIZED RECTO. THE AMP IS A 2 CHANNEL, VOODOO MODDED DUAL RECTIFIER. HOPE THIS GIVES PEOPLE AN IDEA OF THE SOUND I AM LOOKING FOR.

What Are The Characteristics Of The V-12? Redcoat, Governor? These Are The Ones That Interest Me. What Are The Differences Between Any Of These And The V30s?

Trace from Voodoo amps say to try the Weber v 30 clone (ceramic 12V). Any thoughts on this speaker. Other ones I may be interested in are the RED WHITE & BLUE, GB12, & SWAMP THANG. Thanks
